The Undertaker Doesn’t Think He’s Been Replaced In WWE

During his time with WWE, The Deadman was known as the locker room leader, but he feels that in 2024 things are very different. Speaking on his podcast, The Undertaker said he hasn’t been replaced, noting that the locker room seems much more self-policed.

‘Taker hasn’t wrestled since defeating AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36 in 2020.
