The Undertaker's WWE Return Announced For SmackDown's 900th Episode
The Dead Man rises.
We haven't seen The Undertaker on TV since his match against Shane McMahon at WrestleMania 32. Rumors began making the rounds after that, speculating he was ready to call it a career. Now we've found out that there's still more life in the Dead Man, as he'll be returning soon. Very soon.
Taker has been announced for the 15 Nov. episode of SmackDown, which takes place in Wilkes-Barre, PA. This is the last big chance to hype Survivor Series, and also happens to be the 900th episode of the show, which could be why he's making an appearance.
More interesting, though, is that this could be the chance to kick off the hype for a match at WrestleMania, the Royal Rumble or even something for Survivor Series itself. After all, that's the show he made his WWF debut back in 1990, so maybe he'll squash someone in the name of tradition. Though with recent photos of him on crutches, that's rather unlikely.
Royal Rumble will be taking place in Taker's home state of Texas, and with the show airing from the Alamodome, they're going to need something big to fill the place up. Perhaps he has something, or someone on his mind he'd like to announce for that night.
Hopefully WWE has something newsworthy in mind for Taker's appearance, as there likely aren't too many left for us to enjoy.
