Just a few days before WrestleMania, news broke that it wasn't either of the main championship matches that were planned to close out the show - it was Roman Reigns versus The Undertaker. Given the rumors that this will be Undertaker's last match ever (he badly needs a hip replacement, which he's postponing until after he hangs up the tights), it looks like all the speculation about Reigns putting 'Taker out to pasture may very well be true.

If this really is Undertaker's last match, then there's no question that he'll be going on last. Even if it's not his last match (and following The Undertaker for the past 20 years is reason to be skeptical of any retirement rumors), the simple possibility that it might be is enough to let him close out the show.

Given that there aren't any other matches that look like appropriate main events (from both a match quality standpoint and an importance standpoint), this particular rumor looks to be coming true very soon.
