At the end of the article he teases Mania 41:

“I said I won’t leave Nevada. It’s hard to get me out of this state,” he says. “But … Wrestlemania next year is in Vegas. That’s in Nevada.”

I’ll never forgive Stone Cold for not showing up at Mania 40 and depriving me of hearing the pop of the glass breaking so fuck him.

I can agree with that. The Undertaker pop was insane but the glass shattering and hitting Rock with a stunner one more time would have been the best.

I was at Mania (in case you didn’t know so I would’ve heard the pop live )

Stone Cold is very stubborn and will know now he made a HUGE mistake. Stone Cold any time my favourite wrestler of all time ,

Gimme a hell yeah

He could be the Host . He's the GOAT and most of his peers say so. Taker is on mount Rushmore with rock and our CCO. First tee I ever had Austin 3:16 Hogan with that stupid John 3:16 with sword through it on Chris van vliet . He was my favourite as a kid then he's heel turn was great.

So many acres he has why would he want to be at mania 40? Taker got a huge Pop and the dong sound the crowd did you go fig taker @Sabretooth .

Cody Rhodes comments on this:

“I’d love to see him in any capacity. He over-delivered with Kevin Owens. And if that was the end, that’s a great end. And Kevin Owens did an incredible job there too,” Rhodes said. “But anything with Steve — also I feel like he hasn’t punched his legends card enough, where he could just come in and tag with somebody. You know what I’m saying? It doesn’t have to be — I know he probably would want it to be at the highest of levels. But you’re a legend, you can do whatever you want.”

 

[Jimmy King]

As much as I’d love to see him show up again, especially at a Mania, he seems content with being a cat dad on instagram and sharing videos of his cats Pancho and Macho so I don’t blame him for not wanting to do much else.

Him at 40 interacting with The Rock would’ve been great but if 38 was his swan song, I’m ok with that.

He had the perfect send off. Guys spend years chasing that.

One more match and thank you WWE whilst I'm still alive.
