– Austin then showed the above photo and Taker said this was a real moment and during that moment he didn’t know if he would come back for a match ever again.

– Taker says he feels physically battered after his matches since 2010, but it’s all worth it.

– He then noted that he mostly wrestles nowadays because Vince McMahon asks for a favour and he does it because he hasn’t forgotten who gave him a chance in the company.

– Taker said his WrestleMania 33 ‘retirement’ ceremony was worth more than any speech he could do. He thought it was the end, but he got talked into coming back.

– Taker revealed that he doesn’t remember the night of WrestleMania 30 because he suffered a concussion during the first 5 minutes of his match with Brock Lesnar.

Taker was admitted to the hospital after that match and he couldn’t even remember his name at that point. Doctors kept coming in every 5 minutes to ask him about his name, birthdate, etc. Taker said he could only remember his wife’s first name.

Undertaker said that getting concussed during his WrestleMania 30 match screwed up his confidence. Taker said he was in shape for the match, but his body wasn’t ready for the trauma at that point.

Taker said him getting concussed during that match wasn’t Lesnar’s fault.

“Somewhere within the first five minutes of this match, I get concussed. I don’t even remember this night”, Undertaker said. “My last memory I can definitively tell you happened at about 3:30 in the afternoon when my wife came backstage and we had a conversation. That’s the last thing that I remember on my own of that day.

This screwed up my confidence. You figure after you’ve had a career 25+ years, you’ve seen every situation, you don’t get shook up.

Well that is a false belief ’cause this shook me up. Because I couldn’t pinpoint where I got concussed.”
