The 55-year-old Calaway, though, left the door open for a possible return.

In case of emergency, break glass, you pull out the Undertaker, I would have to consider that. Never say never, but at this point in my life and my career, I have no desire to get back in the ring. … I’ve got a pit in my stomach right now.”
“This time, the cowboy really rides away.”
He last faced AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36 in a “Boneyard Match” three months ago.
