The Undertaker reveals names of WWE legends who deserve retirement tour




Over the past few years, WWE has seen a significant increase in the popularity of retirement tours in professional wrestling. Many fans have begun to wonder if other seasoned superstars would be given the same lavish send-off as John Cena.


Addressing this speculation, The Undertaker in an interview with Shakiel Mahjouri said: “"I would say Punk would probably be one of those. I don't know how long Heyman plans on hanging around but I mean I think he has done enough for enough talent that I think he should be in there.




He further stated, “I mean I don't know who else is out there that may be retiring anytime soon, maybe Randy yeah. If Randy wraps it up, I mean Randy deserves that. He's had a pretty storied career, and guys like that yeah, you definitely want to see them get their flowers and say their goodbyes."

The Undertaker believes John Cena deserves this farewell tour


The WWE icon further added that John Cena is more than deserving of a year-long retirement, and thinks that it’s great for the fans, and future potential retirement plans.

“I think it’s great that they’re doing this tour the way they are,” The Undertaker said. “I don’t think everybody deserves that. I think Cena definitely does because of the workhorse that he was for so long. I think it’s great, because people will have an opportunity to know where he’s going to be, and you’re going to get one last opportunity, maybe, to see him live. I think that’s pretty cool.

He feels that the farewell tour could be a prototype for other WWE legends who are currently reigning in the ring.
