Hints of Undertaker’s return first appeared during the 2011 Royal Rumble. His return on February 21 was interrupted by Triple H, making his first appearance in nearly a year. Following in the footsteps of his friend, Shawn Michaels, “The Game” sought to end Underaker’s WrestleMania winning streak. The No-Holds Barred Match between two “Last Outlaws” at WrestleMania XXVII ended in victory for Undertaker, but he left the ring on a stretcher while Triple H walked out under his own power.
Undertaker vanished from WWE for the rest of 2011, returning in January 2012 to demand a rematch against an initially-reluctant Triple H. The two met at WrestleMania XXVIII in a Hell in a Cell Match refereed by Shawn Michaels. The brutal encounter left both men bloodied and battered, but in the end Undertaker claimed victory and pushed his streak to 20-0. When it came time to leave the ring, all three men supported each other and walked into the night, together, symbolizing the “End of an Era.”
