PWInsider is reporting that The Undertaker is scheduled for WWE Raw this week, and is expected to appear on the broadcast in order to start the build for his WrestleMania program.

At this point, the company can still choose to go anywhere with The Undertaker at the show of shows, but company plans (and the Royal Rumble) point to "The Phenom" facing off with Roman Reigns in Orlando. At the Rumble, Undertaker was part of the 30-man battle royal, but Reigns - who wasn't announced for the match prior to the show - eliminated the legend. After being tossed out of the ring, The Undertaker stared Reigns down from the floor.

It should also be mentioned that just because The Undertaker is scheduled for Raw on Monday doesn't mean that he can't also play a role at Fastlane. At the last Pay-Per-View event prior to WrestleMania, Roman Reigns will be taking on the undefeated Braun Strowman, and many expect Undertaker to cost Reigns the match.

Even if "The Phenom" isn't there in person, a cleverly timed use of theme music or special effects can implicate Undertaker in Reigns's loss.
