Backstage Update On The Undertaker's WWE Future
Is 'The Deadman' considering retirement after WrestleMania 36?
The Undertaker's rumoured WrestleMania 36 match with AJ Styles probably won't be a retirement bout.
This is according to a new report from WrestlingNews.co stating that 5 April won't be the last time the legendary 'Deadman' steps between the ropes, with the company reportedly planning something special for his debut's 30th anniversary at Survivor Series 2020.
'Taker was one of the stars of the night at Survivor Series 1990, setting himself on the course to an iconic pro-wrestling career after replacing Bad News Brown in Ted DiBiase's Million Dollar Team, battling Bret Hart, Dusty Rhodes, Koko B. Ware, and Jim Neidhart. Both Rhodes and Ware fell by the debutant's hand that night, with 'The Phenom' quickly getting over in the aftermath.
WrestlingNews.co also have a snippet on Styles, stating that 'Taker handpicked 'The Phenomenal One' as his WrestleMania 36 opponent because he sees him as a "modern-day Shawn Michaels." High praise indeed.
AJ returned to Raw last night, putting himself over as one of the greatest of all time and a legend of the business before him and The OC got into it with Ricochet, leading to 'WWE's Resident Superhero' defeating Karl Anderson. The verbiage used certainly hinted at the 'Taker match.
