Looking tired, rough around the edges and close to the end of his career, the once-mighty Undertaker visibly struggled his way through a Hell In A Cell battle opposite Shane McMahon at WrestleMania 32.

Gone was the imperious swagger with which 'Taker commanded his 'Mania performances; undoubtedly hampered by being cast alongside a non-wrestler who had been out of the WWE spotlight for years, The Undertaker's match with McMahon could politely be described as one which divided fan opinion.

As sad as it is to imagine, the man who previously dominated WrestleMania in quality bouts against Shawn Michaels, Triple H and Brock Lesnar has faded in more recent years.

It remains to be seen exactly which Undertaker will show up at 'Mania 33, but the unstoppable aura surrounding one of WWE's most iconic characters began to fade some years ago. 'Taker vs. Roman Reigns will provoke fan emotion regardless of in-ring quality, but it won't be the show-stealing performance everyone seems to be pinning their hopes on.
