WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker brought his storied career to an unforgettable close at WrestleMania 36 by facing off against AJ Styles in the organization's first-ever Boneyard match, capping off more than three decades in the ring. The majority of the WrestleMania 36 matches were pre-recorded at the empty WWE Performance Center due to the COVID-19 pandemic's effects. The Boneyard bout, on the other hand, took a cinematic approach, with shooting taking place in an abandoned warehouse and cemetery close to Orlando, Florida. In a recent episode of "Busted Open Radio," The Undertaker reflected on his last fight and discussed the behind-the-scenes aspects of the unforgettable match. ""We were relieved to pull off the cinematic contest, as the fight had originally been scheduled for a stadium. The plan was for it to be a traditional match," Undertaker recalled. It's not Shawn [Michaels], but it's getting close, I was mentally getting ready for it. I was thinking about what may happen in our fight, mostly since I had never faced AJ before. The idea of holding the match in an abandoned warehouse was depressing until the epidemic struck. But the game was altered when the cinematic aspect was included. All of a sudden, we had the chance to create something special, something never seen before."Unlike the Firefly Fun House fight between "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt and John Cena, the cinematic match between Styles and Undertaker was intended to stop only after one of the competitors was fully buried. With no disqualifications allowed in the Boneyard match, Styles enlisted the help of friends Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson to try and get the upper hand. The Undertaker prevailed in spite of them, burying Styles with a tractor to seal the victory.
