5 best opponents for The Undertaker's last match

The Undertaker's Last Ride documentary is now available for viewing on the WWE Network and while it dives into the man behind The Phenom, it also poses a very serious question. Unfortunately for the WWE Universe, that question is when will The Undertaker decide to finally retire and who will be his very last opponent in the squared circle?

Of course, this in no way means The Undertaker couldn't retire from pro wrestling after his thrilling Boneyard match with AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36, but it seems like he wants more than that. In fact, it feels like with the introduction of more cinematic style matches that The Undertaker might have a few more in him.

Whether that is true or not remains to be seen and will depend on how The Undertaker feels going forward. Here are his best options for a last opponent inside the squared circle.

As always, let us know your thoughts in the comments below and be sure to tell us who you want Undertaker's last match to be against.

#5 Sting

Undertaker versus Sting is the definition of a dream match.

Undertaker vs. Sting. Who wins? That is the question that has been making its way around the WWE Universe ever since Sting signed with WWE and one has to wonder if the match will ever come to fruition. Beyond that, one has to wonder if the company would choose to do it inside the squared circle or look more towards a cinematic type match to hide their individual weaknesses.

Either way, this has been a dream match for years now and the company would be very smart to finally pull the trigger on it. At least that way, fans get the dream match they have been clamoring for, Undertaker can finally retire, and Sting can end his career with a blockbuster WWE match as well.

In the end, this one dream match has so many different possibilities that it would almost be impossible to get wrong. It really just all depends on where WWE goes with it and how they present it to the fans.

#4 Kane

The Undertaker vs. Kane one more time could be interesting.

Why not just go back to where it all started? Why not make the final match of The Undertaker's career be against his own brother, Kane? Furthermore, why not use some of the cinematic type storytelling that the company has been utilizing lately to create a match up of supernatural proportions.

Both The Undertaker and Kane have had Hall of Famer careers in WWE. But, both legends are far from their best in the ring. While it would be nice to see them face off inside the squared circle one more time, the limited mobility of both men makes a cinematic type match all the more appealing.

If nothing else, this might not be any sort of dream match or even the best bout on the card, but it would be a way to tell the history of The Undertaker and Kane from beginning to end. A chance to play up that history in a meaningful way and bring the careers of both to a dramatic and beautiful end.

#3 Aleister Black

A match against The Undertaker could make or break Aleister Black's career.

When it comes to a Superstar like Aleister Black, it isn't a matter of if they will ever be champion, but when. The man is absolute fire on the microphone, can have a good match with just about anyone on the roster, and brings an intensity to the squared circle that is often absent otherwise. He is a future Hall of Famer and a guy to build around!

If nothing else, he is WWE's next big thing and will most likely take that rightful place in the next couple of years or so. With that being said, however, and a blur present in the road map that is Black's future, one has to wonder exactly what it is the company will do to put him in that prestigious position.

Let's be honest. The Undertaker would serve as the perfect person to finally pass the torch to Aleister Black and put him on the road towards a Hall of fame WWE career. It would also arguably be the biggest win of Black's career, especially if it happens at WrestleMania, which will only make the moment all the more important.

#2 Finn Balor

Could Finn Balor hang with Undertaker in a one on one match?

There was a time when Finn Balor was seen as WWE's next big thing! The company even had him win the Universal Title in his second match on the main roster, which was almost unheard of. Unfortunately for Balor, a shoulder injury during that match sidelined him for a long time and he has never won the big red belt again.

Furthermore, Balor, who was an absolute megastar in NXT, went from top of the card to a mid-carder, at best. He would show flashes of brilliance every once in awhile when the time called for it, but it hasn't really been enough to raise his stock. An encounter with The Deadman could change all of that!

In the end, WWE could easily undo all of that with one simple match between The Demon King and The Deadman. Not only will it be a fitting match for The Undertaker to go out on, especially given the supernatural element, it would also be a great way for the torch to be passed to Balor.

#1 The Fiend

Undertaker versus The Fiend would be a very unique match.

While The Fiend vs. John Cena at WrestleMania 36 will probably go down as the first time in history that WWE righted a wrong, but it should by no means be the last. In fact, between the magic that the company was able to pull off with The Firefly Funhouse match and The Undertaker needing someone to pass the torch to, why not it be Bray Wyatt?

Again, this is WWE's chance to once again rewrite their own history, give Undertaker fans a very unique career retrospective and even pass the torch to The Fiend as the new face of fear. It goes perfectly with what The Fiend character has become and would be a pretty amazing sendoff for The Undertaker.

The Fiend is obviously this generation's Undertaker and WWE is going to have to acknowledge it at some point. With the chance to flip the script once again in WWE's grasp, why not retire The Undertaker and solidify the future of one of their most popular characters?
