10 Shocking Returns That Could Happen At WWE Night Of Champions
10. The Undertaker
The Deadman hasnt been seen in WWE in more than five months, although his name is invoked regularly just not in a positive light. Paul Heyman has made sure fans remember that Brock Lesnar is the one who is responsible for The Undertaker being 21-1 at WrestleMania. Thats not exactly the kind of legacy Taker would want to leave behind. And while Undertaker these days is usually a creature of WrestleMania, returning only around/after the Royal Rumble, this would be an interesting time to stage a return. Until recently, questions were flying about how WWE could have Lesnar as its World Heavyweight Champion on such a severely part-time schedule, leading people to think that he could lose the title to Cena at Night of Champions. Now that the situation appears to be resolved, it looks a little more solid that Lesnar will retain and march toward WrestleMania XXXI, dominating all the way. But if WWE wanted to add an air of intrigue, all youd have to do is have Undertakers gong go off during the match. Think about Lesnars reaction (and Heyman practically wetting himself). Its one time where a wrestler being distracted by another superstars entrance music actually would make sense. Cena sneaks up from behind, hits and Attitude Adjustment and covers Does Cena win? Does Lesnar kick out and continue dominating? For that one moment, fans would be in utter shock. And it would signal that Taker isnt quite dead yet.
