Not everyone deserves the chance to retire The Undertaker
#4 Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan would make for a credible opponent
The reason behind including Daniel Bryan in this list is the same as AJ Styles. They both are extremely safe inside the ring and can carry most of the match effortlessly without putting their opponent in the bad light – something that The Undertaker’s matches need right now. Although The Phenom has started to look better inside the ring, he still needs an opponent like Bryan who can work the storyline well and end it with a great match.

Bryan’s in-ring skills have ensured that his name is etched in the list of finest pro-wrestlers of all time. He is one of the most popular WWE Superstars today and can work wonders when booked against the likes of The Undertaker.
It is highly unlikely for Bryan to be involved in a title picture soon and he doesn’t need a title to be relevant. Hence, he can be booked to be the one who retires The Undertaker.

A loss against Bryan won’t even hurt The Undertaker’s legacy as his last match will be against someone who himself is bound to be considered as an all-time great after he retires.
In Bryan, the Deadman will find a worthy rival with whom he can be involved in an engaging storyline one last time.
