Veteran WWE champion Undertaker announced his retirement and Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan bid him farewell

Mark Callaway, best known as the legendary WWE champion Undertaker announced his retirement from wrestling recently. Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan was among the first to bid the champion farewell with one of Undertaker's iconic moments.

Bachchan shared a GIF video of Undertaker's iconic entry - where the wrestler appears from a cloud of smoke. Abhishek called Mark an 'absolute legend' as he went on to confess being in absolute awe of the wrestler.

"Remember as a young teenager seeing this for the 1st time and being in absolute awe! Since then, the whole world has been in awe! Absolute LEGEND! #FarewellTaker @undertaker," junior Bachchan tweeted.

See it here:

After three decades, Undertaker announced his retirement on Sunday with a final match in the ring. He was a part of the Survivor Series, when he made the announcement.

He said, "For 30 long years, I've made that slow walk to this ring and have laid people to rest time and time again. Now, my time has come. My time has come to let The Undertaker rest... in... peace."

Abhishek Bachchan, on the other hand, recently appeared in the movie 'Ludo' which released on Netflix a few days back. The actor was seen in the role of an angry street fighter who had lost everything in his life and was just out of prison.

For the uninformed, Undertaker was believed to have a Bollywood connect through Akshay Kumar. The iconic wrestler was presumably seen in Kumar's movie 'Khiladiyon Ke Khiladi' featuring Rekha as the female lead and Gulshan Grover as one of the antagonists. However, we did confirm that it was not the same Undertaker who was part of the movie.
