Now, here's a long shot of a reason but one that would make perfect sense when you think about it. Take a trip back about two years ago. WrestleMania 33! Roman Reigns gives The Undertaker his second defeat at a WrestleMania event. After the match, The Undertaker laid down his hat, his trench coat, and took what many felt was going to be his final bow from the WWE ring forever.

All that had remained of The Undertaker following the conclusion of his match with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 33.

The Undertaker would make his return eventually and go on to feud with Triple H and Shawn Michaels. However, we know this moment in which Undertaker and Roman Reigns had is still buried deep inside the soul of The Deadman. The Undertaker would love to have his revenge for the loss that nearly put him down for good.

Remember, the battle was over who was the biggest and baddest dog in the yard for the WWE. The Undertaker held down the yard for so many years. Roman Reigns took that away from him. The very next night following Undertaker's defeat. "The Big Dog" made this fact loud and clear for the WWE Universe to hear.

"This is my yard now". Arguably so, this is indeed Roman Reigns' "yard", and he is certainly running the show whether we like it or not. Now that Undertaker has returned and aligned himself with Roman Reigns, could this tag match be a deeper plot for Undertaker to take back his yard from Roman Reigns?

Imagine if this were an elaborate setup for Undertaker to scratch Roman's back by helping him take out Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre in order for Undertaker to get what he truly wants, a rematch with Roman Reigns at the biggest summer spectacular of the year: SummerSlam!

Again, is it a bit far-fetched? Yes, it is. Can it happen? Most definitely! I would not be surprised to see Roman Reigns vs The Undertaker as one of the headlining matches for SummerSlam 2019.
