5 Biggest regrets of WWE Superstars: John Cena makes it personal, Randy Orton's big mistake

#3 The Undertaker's regret after WrestleMania 33 match with Roman Reigns

At the 2017 WWE Royal Rumble event, Roman Reigns eliminated The Undertaker, thus kicking off their rivalry. At WrestleMania, the duo headlined the show, with Reigns defeating The Undertaker and becoming the second man to do so at The Grandest Stage Of Them All. The Undertaker, while talking about the match, was full of regrets.

The Roman Reigns match at WrestleMania was tough. I was not just disappointed for me, I was disappointed for Roman Reigns as well. It was my opportunity to give him something that will push him to a higher level. And I didn’t deliver on that.

Like, I have already committed, it’s already been planned and this is what is going to happen. And I was scrambling, trying to figure out how I am going to make this work. And, I was thoroughly disappointed.

The Undertaker has lost just two matches at WWE WrestleMania, to Brock Lesnar and Reigns

It's not a secret that the match didn't deliver and was a huge let-down. At that point in time, The Undertaker was way past his prime and just couldn't move in the ring like he once used to. Fans weren't happy one bit with The Undertaker losing at WWE WrestleMania again, and the match quality only ended up annoying them more.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
