The Undertaker is looking old and moving about with difficulty, according to a source that Dave Meltzer referenced in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. "For what its worth, someone saw Undertaker recently and said that he looked 60 and moved like his knees were gone and it was almost shocking," Meltzer reported. The feeling is that The Undertaker is still on course for a match with Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 31. Wyatt continues to reference the Deadman in promos and The Undertaker is expected to be back after Fast Lane. The issues of age and trouble with movement are the reasons WWE booked Taker with Wyatt. The office have faith in Wyatt's in-ring ability and the belief is that the 27 year old can carry the 49 year old to a good match. Undertaker will dye his hair and be wearing make up to cover his aged appearance. Wyatt will do the majority of the work in an effort to cover for The Undertaker's lack of mobility. His knee problems are well documented and the shocking physical state is down to Taker's three decades of injuries and surgeries. He's always been susceptible to injury and speculation on retirement started as far back as 1997. Ultimately, the physical frailty of Mark Calaway is the reason why WWE couldn't book Sting vs The Undertaker. Another issue for The Undertaker at WrestleMania 31 is going to be his lighting. It will also be an issue for Wyatt. Both wrestlers make distinctive entrances in the dark, but WrestleMania 31 will be taking place during daylight. It will only be starting to get dark toward the very end of the show.
