The Undertaker may be retired, though he remains a large part of WWE. The Hall of Famer has revealed he is cooking up something behind the scenes. Now, instead of performing in the ring, he’s helping shape the future of the company. He is no longer focused so much on grooming as being more of a gifted inputter and long–term development guy.
Undertaker’s New Influence
For years, fans have seen The Undertaker shape eras as he’d make his iconic entrance and take part in legendary matchups. These days, he exerts his influence by leading rather than dominating physically. He is collaborating with WWE Superstars and creative talent. The idea is to hone stories and develop characters, while helping younger wrestlers find their footing. It’s a natural progression from what has been his experience.
It is also being reported that The Undertaker has been at the WWE Performance Center as of late. There, he’s been having candid conversations with young prospects. He dispenses advice on timing, character work, and presence. These are the lessons of a career across generations. With WWE on the path of its increasingly global expansion, his involvement is even more invaluable at a time of transformation.
It’s in this new position that he positions himself squarely within the heart of WWE’s development and creative process. It is not symbolic or ritualistic. He’s in the thick of things with artists and gatekeepers. His insight helps shape how stories are presented and how talent connects with audiences. His experience gives him a rare understanding of psychology and performance.
Global Creative Mentorship
The Undertaker has also been a part of creative discussions regarding WWE’s expanding partnership with Lucha Libre AAA. In his role, sources say he has helped to look at ways to mix styles and still honor lucha libre traditions. That balance is critical as WWE reaches new international audiences. His voice is important in those conversations.
The Undertaker has always been respected by everyone in the locker room. That respect has now turned into structured mentorship. He is no longer appearing only for special moments. He is part of WWE’s ongoing process. Insiders note that he often works one-on-one with talent. His feedback reflects decades spent at the highest level.
For younger wrestlers, this access is invaluable. Learning from someone who lived through multiple eras offers a perspective few can provide. WWE benefits from his steady presence. The next generation gains a guide who understands every layer of the business.
