10 Things Nobody Wants To Admit About WWE WrestleMania 34

5. The Undertaker Can't Work A 'Mania Epic

A red flag should be appearing in front of your eyes during the build towards this proposed John Cena vs. The Undertaker match. Much of Cena's hype has revolved around calling out 'Taker for thinking he's a broken down old man. The truth is: he proved he was last year in Orlando.

That's painful to say, but it's true. Against Roman Reigns at 'Mania 33, one of the best performers ever looked like he had finally run out of juice. Though The Undertaker does have a role to play in New Orleans, it's not as part of some 30-minute epic that will tear the house down.

Those days are over, and that botched Tombstone reversal spot in 2017 proved it.

Come bell time, many will be expecting something special from Cena and 'Taker. That's unfair on a man who has given so much. There's nothing The Undertaker, as cherished a part of WrestleMania history as he is, can do to turn back the clock. In 2018, he needs a distraction-filled brawl more than ever.
