WWE Royal Rumble 2016: 10 Reasons The Undertaker Will Return

By Jamie Kennedy /

7. To Eliminate Braun Strowman

There are still those who believe that WWE may wish to have The Undertaker put over a fledgling star before he departs. During his feud against The Wyatt Family, Undertaker tangled on occasion with Braun Strowman, someone who certainly has the size to go head-to-head with The Undertaker. There are some fans who think Strowman vs. 'Taker will be on the WrestleMania 32 card. For many, that bout lacks the big-time feel that comes with marquee bouts on WrestleMania supercards. It's clear that Strowman isn't quite there yet in regards to working a lengthy singles match, but that doesn't mean he can't play a role in some sort of tag-team affair at 'Mania opposite Undertaker. Harking back to earlier entries, 'Taker could team with Kane to face Braun and another Wyatt Family member, for example. Even if WWE don't want to book Undertaker as an entrant in the Rumble match itself, he could still cause Strowman's elimination. Obviously, this would depend on where the company want to take things in respect to 'Mania. That said, there would need to be some interaction if interest is still there for a Strowman vs. Undertaker battle on the biggest stage WWE can provide.
