Having wrestled for almost three decades, WWE's living legend, the Undertaker continues to be a poetic enigma for wrestling fans all around the world. While the former World Champion performs limitedly now, the Undertaker looks dead set to participate in more events this year.
With the Phenom already performing on the Greatest Royal Rumble, one wonders what his next move on television will be.
Follow Sportskeeda for the latest WWE news, rumors and all other wrestling news.
The Demon of Death Valley is expected to return to Madison Square Garden after eight years, for a live event. With all the rumors doing the rounds, it's safe to say that there's a possibility that the future Hall of Famer could surprise the audience at SummerSlam this year.
Considering he has performed exceptionally well on previous occasions, there's no way he cannot replicate that brilliance once again.
So, without further ado, here are seven blockbuster matches for the Undertaker's return at SummerSlam.
#1 The Undertaker vs Roman Reigns
If Seth Rollins ends up facing Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam, there's a high possibility that the Big Dog would be booked in another marquee encounter.
Considering the reputation he has backstage, Vince's Golden Boy could very well enter in another program with the Undertaker, a man he proclaimed to retire.
While the retirement angle would not work, it would be more precise to have the Phenom return and destroy Roman Reigns.
On the similar lines of his attack on Brock Lesnar at Battleground 2015, the Undertaker could seek redemption by challenging the Big Dog at SummerSlam. Since SummerSlam is the second biggest PPV of the year, an Undertaker Vs. Roman Reigns bout would be appreciated.
#2 The Undertaker vs Daniel Bryan
Since the Undertaker's gimmick relies heavily on supernatural occurrences, the Phenom can show up anywhere he wants. With the blue brand gaining momentum every week, the creative team could just pull off something incredible by the time August hits.
Bringing the Undertaker to SmackDown Live would elevate ratings to another level and clashing him with Daniel Bryan could very well exceed expectations.
The fans have dreamt of this match since so long and if there's a momentous time for the WWE to book this bout, it is now.
With all the talent that Daniel Bryan possesses, going one-on-one against the Phenom could push him to another stratosphere as a performer.
#3 The Undertaker vs A.J. Styles
The WWE Champion is on a roll ever since he debuted in 2016 and became a star in the company due to his continuous brilliant performances.
A.J. Styles is undoubtedly the face of the blue brand today and despite delivering exceptional performances with almost everyone, the Phenomenal One has never squared off against the Phenom.
Since both are friends outside the business, the Undertaker could push Vince McMahon for a match against A.J. Styles at SummerSlam.
A match that was rumored to happen at Royal Rumble 2017 could very well become a reality in two months.
Despite carrying a strong personality, the former World Champion needs someone as agile as Styles to deliver a brilliant match.
#4 The Undertaker Vs Kevin Owens
Considering the talented roster WWE possesses today, there are many Superstars who would be willing to share the same ring with the Undertaker.
However, since the Phenom carries a babyface persona, pitting him against Kevin Owens at the biggest party of the summer would be an exceptional move.
While it would be a bold decision on WWE's behalf, the Prizefighter will certainly try everything in his power to get the audience invested.
Kevin Owens has always stated Undertaker as a dream opponent, and with Raw struggling to get credible heels, this could be a fantastic move.
Imagine the heat that was bestowed upon K.O. when he destroyed Vince McMahon in the middle of the ring.
If the former Universal Champion pulls off something special with the Phenom, it would ascend him to the top of the red brand.
#5 The Undertaker Vs Braun Strowman
With all the momentum that Braun Strowman has, at the moment, pushing him into a marquee feud with the Phenom seems like a legitimate money-spinner.
While this match was originally scheduled to happen at WrestleMania 32, Strowman's lack of experience and popularity led Vinny Mac to think otherwise.
The Monster Among Men is the hottest commodity in the world of professional wrestling today.
Strowman has all the credentials in the world to dance with the Deadman at SummerSlam. If the company pushes the envelope with this bout, it could catapult Braun Strowman to the top of the red brand and turn him into the real deal.
Undertaker Vs. Braun Strowman is money, and if booked correctly, the bout could prove to be beneficial for the WWE.
#6 The Undertaker Vs. Seth Rollins
While a lot of you might feel that Braun Strowman Vs. the Undertaker would be a marquee encounter for SummerSlam, but there's another superstar who deserves this more.
Seth Rollins' continuous brilliant performances have ascended his credibility as a babyface on the red brand.
Taking his Intercontinental Championship reign into account; there's a strong possibility that the Architect will enter a marquee feud at SummerSlam.
With the Undertaker rumored to return, it would be likely for the Phenom to go one-on-one against a superstar who can carry him to a sensational bout.
If there's anyone on the roster who deserves to dance with the Deadman at SummerSlam, it is Seth Rollins.
#7 The Undertaker vs 'The Demon' Finn Balor
After being directionless for most of 2017, Finn Balor has started to look more confident in the ring and is being pushed firmly on the red brand.
The former NXT Champion had Braun Strowman beat two times which only goes on to justify how credible Balor is as a performer.
However, his enigmatic Demon persona has not shown up since last year's WWE TLC match against A.J. Styles.
Since the character is such a hit among the fans, bringing the Demon back for a match against the Undertaker would be an ideal choice.
This bout already has all the makings of a potential thriller, and if there's any storyline that could interest the Undertaker creatively, it could be the one against Finn Balor.
The Phenom vs The Demon King could very well catapult Finn Balor back to the main event picture. If there's a character that could match well with the Demon King, it is the Undertaker.
