WWE Rumors: Undertaker Returning This May, Wrestlemania Appearance Possible
The Undertaker may rarely be seen on WWE shows nowadays and most have given their pitch on what the real score is between him and the company. Well, it looks like the Dead Man is still with the WWE and he will be performing this coming May in Saudi Arabia.
According to the Wrestling Observer, in a report by Wrestling Inc., the Undertaker will be part of the WWE show in Saudi Arabi set for May 3. Ironically, 2018 saw the Dead Man perform two of his four appearances in the same region. That included a casket match against Rusev at the Greatest Royal Rumble while the other was teaming up with Kane as they went up against the duo of Triple H and Shawn Michaels.
There is no question that Saudi Arabia is paying big bucks for WWE events and the Undertaker is one of the favorites of fans over there. But before that big event, there is Wrestlemania 35 to think about first. With only a couple of weeks to go, there is still no indication that the Dead Man will be at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on April 7.
Regardless, not many WWE fans are expecting the 53-year-old wrestler to be there with no card set. But despite no match, there are some who are toying with the idea that the Undertaker may make an appearance. That is highly possible considering a lot of WWE legends are expected to be on tap.
An Undertaker appearance would be grand considering his name is synonymous to Wrestlemania. He had an undefeated record of 21-0 dating from 1991 to 2013, a streak that was cut by reigning WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 30 back in 2014, the Bleacher Report said.
Depending on his condition, there is a slim chance of seeing the Undertaker compete. It could be a treat for the WWE fans wherein he could suddenly be named as a replacement for some other star. Seeing how WWE CEO Vince McMahon has made a living recently screwing different stars, one could happen at the annual spectacle.
But the question following that is who will he face? Kurt Angle looms as a plausible choice, someone who will be leaving soon. Baron Corbin is his current opponent although previous reports suggest that a replacement will be coming. Could that be the cue for the Phenom to emerge?
