Work a very athletic ring style for over 20 years. This is nagging injuries and age catching up to him. There is a reason for him only working Wrestlemania now and that is the fact that his body cannot keep up with the ring work he does.

Never said anything else. But the fact remains, that having worked such a style for so long (he debuted as the Undertaker in 1990 and he had already wrestled for 6 years before that in other promotions.) That's a 29 year long career. His body is banged up and he spends months following Wrestlemania just recovering. The man is also a relatively new father since he and Michelle McCool had a kid a year or so back. I'd completely understand if he calls it quits.

Part of it is true, but the biggest issue is his COPD that is fucking him up badly. Especially lately.

This limits airflow to and from the lungs, causing shortness of breath (dyspnea). In clinical practice, COPD is defined by its characteristically low airflow on lung function tests. In contrast to asthma, this limitation is poorly reversible and usually gets progressively worse over time.

One of the most common symptoms of COPD is shortness of breath (dyspnea). People with COPD commonly describe this as: "My breathing requires effort," "I feel out of breath," or "I can't get enough air in". People with COPD typically first notice dyspnea during vigorous exercise when the demands on the lungs are greatest. Over the years, dyspnea tends to get gradually worse so that it can occur during milder, everyday activities such as housework. In the advanced stages of COPD, dyspnea can become so bad that it occurs during rest and is constantly present.

Taker's last match was 28 in my opinion. That should be it for him. The match left the record at 20-0, "end of an era", & good quality match as well. Another match would just be unneeded unless he's giving up the streak.

There is still no official word on The Undertaker's status for WrestleMania 29. Right now the plan is Taker vs. CM punk until he says he's not doing the show. There is no commitment right now that he will do the show. Friends of his are hoping that he won't wrestle this year as his hip and shoulder are giving him problems.

No word yet on what CM Punk may do if Taker doesn't wrestle but speculation is a singles match with Ryback, which would change his plans, or a spot in the John Cena vs. The Rock WWE Title match.

Pretty much what we've been saying.

I hope he gets cleared soon. And give all of us a dead surprise by entering the wrestlemania.
I don't care, with whom he fight. I just want to see the reaction of the crowd, when lights will go off and the music will start, *TUNNN*.
