This match is synonymous with WWE legend The Undertaker. Back in 1992, the Casket match was introduced and The Undertaker defeated Kamala in the first Casket match at Survivor Series 1992. Almost two dozen Casket matches have taken place so far, with The Phenom being featured in most of those. The rules of the contest are simple: a wrestler needs to place his opponent inside the Casket and close it to register a victory.

At Survivor Series 2008, The Undertaker defeated Big Show in a Casket match, and it would be a full decade before The Deadman was featured in this match again. At WWE's Greatest Royal Rumble in 2018, The Undertaker defeated Rusev in just under 10 minutes in a Casket match.
With The Undertaker not being that active anymore, it's understandable as to why we haven't seen the match in recent years. Nevertheless, WWE can bring back the gimmick as current Superstars like The Fiend and Aleister Black seem to have personalities that are synonymous with the match type.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
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.
