WWE WrestleMania SPOILER: Why Undertaker is set for John Cena angle
THE UNDERTAKER seems set to return at WrestleMania 34 as he was spotted in New Orleans, Louisiana where the event will take place tonight.
John Cena has been challenging Undertaker to a WrestleMania match for four weeks but has yet to hear a response.
The Deadman hinted at retirement last year when he lost an emotional Mania bout to Roman Reigns as he broke character and laid down his signature black jacket, gloves and hat in the middle of the ring before saluting the crowd.
However, it seems like Taker is not done yet as he may get involved in an angle with Cena.
According to PWInsider, The Phenom has been spotted in New Orleans and seems set to make an appearance at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
GETTY
Cena vs Undertaker has been planned for WrestleMania for months
Rumours suggest Cena will make one last effort calling Undertaker out and he will make his way to the ring for an impromptu match.
There is also a chance that he may only return to confront The Champ and set up a a dream bout for WrestleMania 35.
He may also come back in his old biker gimmick as the American Badass.
The Wrestling Observer have claimed: “Cena vs Undertaker has been planned for WrestleMania for months, and Undertaker has been training for the match. Undertaker will obviously be in New Orleans to confront Cena.

“The last word we got, which was on 4/3, is that from Vince McMahon’s standpoint, the belief is that the audience knows he’s going to show up and this is the ‘story’ that brings him back to ‘kick Cena’s ass.’
"They are also of the belief announcing Taker in advance won’t compel anyone to purchase the network, as anyone inclined is getting the network for the show anyway.
“This is Vince McMahon’s story and he seems very happy with it. I think part of it is that Vince McMahon can say, `people are invested in the mere chance Undertaker will show up’!
“If that means a match, or just a confrontation to build to a match next year, is hard to say, past that it was always scheduled as a match dating back several months.”
