The recent injury that forced WWE superstar The Undertaker to use crutches to get around has finally been revealed. According to PW Insider, the 51-year-old wrestler has been recovering from hip surgery.

The rumors started to circulate that the Undertaker had been sidelined with a serious injury after the legendary wrestler was recently photographed with one of the baristas at a Starbucks with his hands clutched around a pair of crutches.

The Pro Wrestling & MMA Twitter account posted a photo of the Undertaker with the caption: "Recent photo of #TheUndertaker on crutches. #WWE #Raw #Smackdown #Undertaker #Wrestlemania."

PW Insider noted that it is unknown whether the hip surgery and subsequent recovery period will interfere with any current plans for Wrestlemania. However, it is the Undertaker's decision if he wants to wrestle each year, so he may be sitting this year out in order to let his body heal properly.

Another Twitter user with the handle @TheZackLethal was also able to get a photo with the Undertaker where the crutches can clearly be seen.

The Twitter user posted the photo with the caption: "Another photo of The Undertaker. You can see the crutches in his trunk which tells you it's his. I hope he heals up soon."

The Undertaker has been wrestling for a remarkable 30-plus year career after first getting started in the sport back in 1984. In light of how much time he has spent in the ring, it doesn't come as much surprise to see that the Dead Man is now showing his mortality.

In the past, the Undertaker has had issues with his back, hips, and his knees. It's likely these injuries have caught up with him, but it's possible he is dealing with some other injury entirely.

The last time the Undertaker was seen on WWE Television was WrestleMania 32 Hell in a Cell match against none other than Shane McMahon. Hopefully the Undertaker can get back healthy enough from his hip surgery he will be able to step in the ring for a highly likely showdown against John Cena.

We wish The Undertaker a speedy recovery from his hip surgery!
