2. The Undertaker Comes For Roman Reigns

A legend with the box office appeal of The Undertaker cannot go much longer without an established opponent for WrestleMania 33, and there's really only one choice available to 'The Deadman'.

Rewinding to the Royal Rumble, a series of wild booing accompanied the shock visual of Roman Reigns eliminating 'Taker; boos are nothing new for Reigns, and this was yet another example of hardcore fans rebelling against his non-stop push to be Raw's top name.

It makes sense to have Undertaker return and target Roman on Raw, because this gives WWE almost a month to work with in building towards their epic match at 'Mania. In addition, The Undertaker can't just let the fact that Roman cost him the chance to headline WrestleMania slide.

Grabbing a microphone after running off the medical officials who had been tending to Reigns, the veteran looks down on Roman in the centre of the ring, glances up at the WrestleMania sign and then places a funeral wreath onto the body of Reigns.

Afterwards, 'Taker rolls his eyes into the back of his head and simply says, "I've come for you, Roman. Rest in peace".
