WWE to celebrate 30 years of The Undertaker at Survivor Series
On the anniversary of his debut, WWE will be celebrating 30 years of The Undertaker.
A commercial for next month’s Survivor Series pay-per-view aired during Hell in a Cell tonight and was focused on it being The Undertaker’s 30th anniversary. It was then announced on commentary that Survivor Series will celebrate 30 years of The Undertaker.
Further details about the celebration haven’t been revealed.
This year’s Survivor Series is taking place on Sunday, November 22. That’s also the day that The Undertaker made his on-screen debut for the WWF at Survivor Series in 1990.
In what may have been the last match of The Undertaker’s career, he defeated AJ Styles in their Boneyard Match at WrestleMania 36 this April. At the end of his Last Ride docuseries on the WWE Network, Undertaker said he has no desire to return to in-ring competition.
The WWE Network is also celebrating The Undertaker’s 30th anniversary with their “30 Days of The Deadman” lineup of programming. Starting today, a new special premieres on the WWE Network every Sunday for five weeks. Today’s special is a new WWE Untold episode on Undertaker and Randy Orton’s feud from 2005.
