Despite reports over the weekend claiming that Bryan Alvarez had said The Undertaker would be facing Braun Strowman at WrestleMania 32, the news is premature. Alvarez has taken to Twitter to confirm that he was only speculating that could be a possibility. The false report was brought to the attention of Dave Meltzer, who replied "Wow, another story I didn't write." Alvarez then retweeted a fan who said "no, Bryan speculated it because braun was protected in the rumble, it's SPECULATION." Alvarez then tweeted "I am going to start blocking people who do this." The truth of it is, nobody knows what exactly WWE has in mind for The Undertaker at WrestleMania 32 yet, which is fairly stunning. Braun Strowman was protected at the Royal Rumble, but that doesn't necessarily mean he'll be the one chosen to face the deadman. The rumours have swirled for months that it could be the case, but just as likely is that Strowman is being kept strong to be a player in the Brock Lesnar / Wyatt Family feud. With The Undertaker being such a private individual, there'll be very few people backstage who know what his Mania plan is. Triple H and Vince McMahon will know, but they are hardly going to be running to the dirtsheets with the news. If it is Strowman who gets the nod, it will at least be a visual spectacle, with the old school giant versus monster booking to it. As an in-ring match, it will be limited, hence why it may not be the booking WWE go with.
