Sorry, Rusev, but you've absolutely no chance in this one.

There's only one reason why the Bulgarian is there: he's going to be squashed flat by The Undertaker as WWE continue painting "The Deadman" as an unstoppable icon on the comeback trail. It's written in the stars, and it's probably partly why Vince McMahon changed his mind again on Chris Jericho's involvement.

Like it or not, Rusev is cannon fodder for 'Taker here. As much as hoping he'll come out looking good even in defeat is admirable from fans on social media, Rusev will be crushed by a legend who looks set to dish out short, dominating drubbings from here until he retires for good.

Perhaps it has to be that way. After all, seeing The Undertaker's bones creak and his face twist with pain during lengthier matches against Roman Reigns and Shane McMahon over the past few years has been a depressing experience.
