WWE is celebrating 30 years of The Undertaker with special programming for the next month.

The company announced a number of shows that will air on the WWE Network and digital platforms which includes a WWE Untold special on Undertaker and a special on Paul Bearer. The month-long celebration will culminate in a new episode of “Broken Skull Sessions” where Steve Austin will be joined by Undertaker a second time.

From WWE:

Commemorate the 30-year anniversary of The Undertaker’s WWE debut with 30 Days of The Deadman, a monthlong celebration that begins Sunday, Oct. 25, on the award-winning WWE Network and all WWE digital and social platforms.

WWE was forever changed on Nov. 22, 1990, when the funeral dirge signaling The Undertaker’s arrival rang out for the very first time at Survivor Series. Since then, The Phenom has etched one unforgettable moment after another, carving a legacy in sports-entertainment that has no rival.

WWE Network’s 30 Days of The Deadman celebration will feature a full month of original programming dedicated to The Undertaker. A new documentary will be released every Sunday, capped off by The Undertaker’s much-anticipated return to “Stone Cold” Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Sessions on Sunday, Nov. 22.

The programming schedule, which was first revealed by Variety, is available below. In addition to these and other WWE Network offerings, look for unique Undertaker content throughout the month across all of WWE’s digital and social platforms.
