The Undertaker has earned a place on the personal Mount Rushmore of many fans and fellow wrestlers for his legendary status as one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. There was a lot of discussion and agreement among fans when he recently revealed his own Mount Rushmore of momentous occasions in professional wrestling.
Iconic superstars that changed the face of wrestling forever have come and gone over the history of sports entertainment. The path has been varied, with some reaching the peak of success and others failing to connect with admirers. Recently, The DeadMan added his own list among those by picking his top four moments in professional wrestling.
Wrestlers and fans alike often argue passionately over who the sport’s greatest moments are. However, when Undertaker revealed his own Mount Rushmore of pro wrestling moments, fans praised his picks, describing them as brilliant. Noting the Hall of Famer’s selection, Wrestle Features highlighted the Hall of Famer’s choices, which included Hogan slamming Andre, the Austin 3:16 promo, the face-off between Hogan and The Rock, and Lesnar breaking The Streak.
The Undertaker’s appearance at WrestleMania 40 was unforgettable, particularly when he slammed The Rock with a crushing chokeslam. It was unexpected to many that he was brought in to replace Stone Cold Steve Austin, which was a surprising turn of events.

With all the iconic figures banding together to defeat the long-standing Bloodline, the WrestleMania XL conclusion seemed like a scenario straight out of Avengers Endgame. An exciting turn of events occurred during the final confrontation between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes when The Final Boss and the legendary John Cena made an unexpected entrance.
Then, just as everyone was waiting for Stone Cold Steve Austin to make his comeback, The Undertaker sprang out of hiding and hit The Rock with a crushing chokeslam. Fans were taken aback, as it seemed like a last-minute addition. Reports later revealed that Austin was originally planned for the role, but negotiations fell through, leading to The Undertaker’s unforgettable cameo.
