5 reasons why Vince McMahon won't allow The Undertaker to perform at WrestleMania 35

The Undertaker has often been referred to as one of Vince McMahon's greatest creations. In an era where superstars would get their gimmicks based on what was pulled out of the "gimmick box", The Undertaker managed to set himself apart.

His character is essentially a Deadman, and while some may think that anyone could pull the character off, they couldn't be more wrong. It was McMahon who created the character, but it was Mark Callaway who perfected it. For over two and a half decades now, he's graced our screen and created a legend of himself.

He's become arguably the single most respected wrestler in the history of the business, and you won't find one person saying a bad word about Callaway. He's earned that respect over two decades of hard work, blood, sweat and tears and leadership in the locker room. One of the events that perhaps defined him the most was WrestleMania.

Over the course of two decades, he would end up accumulating the greatest streak in WWE history, going a whopping 21 wins before suffering his first defeat. Currently, he stands at 24-2 at WrestleMania, still the most iconic numbers ever. However, his run may have come to an end without us knowing it, and his absence at WrestleMania 35 seems certain.

Here are a few reasons why Vince McMahon won't allow him to return at the event that defined his career.

Being a veteran of the ring, he has Vince McMahon's full respect, and there's no doubt about that. His position with the company has been clear and even if he wants to go on, Vince McMahon probably realizes that it's better not to.

More likely than not, he won't let him wrestle out of pure respect.
