Taker was said to be in pain and noticeably slower, and it thus became a certainty that his Breaking Point match with CM Punk could not be a long bout (it ended up going less than ten minutes).<\/p>\n<p>In investigating the issue, speculation has arisen that his post-WrestleMania hip surgery was not as minor as publicly portrayed.  PWInsider calls the surgery &#8220;heavy duty&#8221; and serious enough that there was concern about whether he could actively wrestle again.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, he <i>is<\/i> back in the ring at press time.  While speculation has begun that he might use WrestleMania 26 as a platform to retire from active wrestling, nothing is definitively in the cards&#8211;and as of right now, Undertaker is an active member of WWE&#8217;s roster.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/view.picapp.com\/default.aspx?term=\\the undertaker wwe&#038;iid=4512210\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.picapp.com\/ftp\/Images\/6\/d\/4\/1\/PicImg_WWE__Wrestlemania_3bc3.JPG?adImageId=3215193&#038;imageId=4512210\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\"  border=\"0\" alt=\"WWE - Wrestlemania - Michaels Vs Undertaker\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.pis.picapp.com\/IamProd\/PicAppPIS\/JavaScript\/PisV4.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Concern About The Undertaker&#039;s WWE Future, Retirement?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"There has been talk over the past few weeks that Undertaker&#039;s active in-ring WWE career could be coming to a close.
