It is finally going to happen

John Cena vs The Undertaker. The dream match which never took place at WrestleMania before. Unless the WWE has a major twist planned for us, this match is finally gonna happen. While any match involving these two superstars carries a lot of pedigree, the stages at which their respective careers are at prevent the match from being something as big as a match like Rock vs Cena.

However, to make this match much more interesting the WWE will most probably add some sort of stipulation to make this match much easier for the two competitors while making it more interesting for us fans. So here's a look at the possible stipulations The Undertaker vs John Cena match could have.


#5 Last man standing match

Who will be unable to answer the 10 count?

This stipulation seems least likely as they would have to give a lot of time for this to happen. Considering Taker's health, the importance of the other matches like Lesner vs Reigns and Nakamura vs Styles, which would definitely warrant more time makes this stipulation the least likely of all.

Although, if they do provide them with a good amount of time and if Taker has no health issues, then this would be a viable and quite entertaining avenue, negating the importance of technical wrestling and focusing on their hard-hitting abilities.

If it ends up being a last man standing match between the two superstars who are known for being the most resilient performers, it would most likely be a really memorable match.

#4 Casket Match

'The Deadman' in one last casket match?

Now there are rumors floating around that The Undertaker would show up in his American Badass character. If that is not true and we see him in his gothic clothing and supernatural aura, then a casket match isn't a far-fetched idea.

It would be a nostalgic trip down memory lane and would also allow them to have a different kind of suspense other than near falls, making their match something different and refreshing, something a 6 hour-plus show definitely needs.

#3 No holds barred

The standard bearer for no holds barred matches

This stipulation brings back memories of The Undertaker vs Triple H match at WrestleMania 27 and if Taker vs Cena comes close to this iconic match up, then the crowd watching this bout will be more than happy.

Moreover considering the style of fighting that both Cena and Taker possess, they could easily make this match work brilliantly, showing the crowd and the wrestlers backstage how a classic no holds barred brawl should be done.

#2 Hell in a Cell match

Will he throw Cena off too?

It is highly possible that the demonic structure which has become synonymous with The Undertaker is the structure in which The Undertaker has his last match at WrestleMania. The hell in a cell stipulation has always brought out the best in The Undertaker, may it be his match against Mankind, his cult classic war against Triple H at WrestleMania 28 and many more.

While this stipulation would be almost perfect for their bout, seeing Taker lose the last match in the structure he helped define would be quite saddening to witness.

#1 Retirement match

One last hurrah?

We all know that this stipulation has the highest possibility of being implemented in the match of these two stalwarts. We know the end of The Undertaker is near, and irrespective of the remorse we feel, delaying this moment would make it much worse for all involved in this situation.

Although an Undertaker win in this scenario isn't impossible. The WWE could shock the whole wrestling community and beyond by "ending" John Cena's career. This would create shockwaves throughout social media and will get people buzzing like crazy. This would allow Cena to focus on his career outside the squared ring and later on, he could make a comeback, as it has been done before by many.
