The Undertaker is undoubtedly the benchmark for all professional wrestlers across the planet. He won the Royal Rumble match from the thirtieth position. Despite being considered as the easiest position in the Rumble match, the position eluded to produce a winner until the “Phenom”.
The last seven minutes of this match featuring the “Deadman” against Shawn Michaels were an absolute classic. Years later, these two featured in the legendary matches at WrestleMania 25 and 26.
The Undertaker challenged and defeated the “Animal”, Batista, for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 23.
