The Undertaker has claimed that he has called it quits, but so we've heard several times in the past. We know that The Undertaker's final farewell has been set for Survivor Series 2020, and it does seem likely that he could have an altercation of some kind with Bray Wyatt when the event happens.
In this article, I shall delve into this topic and list 5 signs that an Undertaker vs. Fiend storyline could begin at Survivor Series, and culminate on a grander stage such as WrestleMania. Bear in mind that this is not based on inside knowledge and at its core, it is a speculative article only.
So, with that said, here are 5 signs that we may be headed towards The Undertaker vs. Bray Wyatt at Survivor Series.
#5 Well, The Fiend has pretty much hinted at a match with The Undertaker, even though he did not specifically mention Survivor Series
So, WWE put up a promotional post about The Undertaker not long ago, where they mentioned that he's battled them all in the ring. However, Bray Wyatt would chime in and make it clear that he has not yet battled The Fiend. And this gives credence to the rumor and the speculation that the two men, or rather supernatural entities could be headed towards a titanic clash at Survivor Series.
And yes, while the picture above was just an advertisement for the Undertaker-themed photoshoot that a lot of WWE Superstars partook in, it was very interesting indeed that they chose Alexa Bliss as the face of the campaign, considering that she is The Fiend's ally.
The intention was clearly to get us all hyped for an Undertaker vs. Fiend clash, and the signs point to some kind of a showdown in the special segment at Survivor Series this year.
#4 The Undertaker has been full of praise for Bray Wyatt AKA The Fiend
The Undertaker was recently interviewed by The New York Post where he said that Bray Wyatt's current incarnation- The Fiend was the strongest character in WWE at the moment and also expressed that the two men could have done something special together.
Here's what The Undertaker had to say about The Fiend:
"I hope he stays really invested in it and says no when he has to say no and do what’s right for that character because it’s really the strongest character WWE has right now."
Obviously, this doesn't mean too much with regard to a future clash, and one could say that The Undertaker's successor could be Aleister Black or Demon King Finn Balor as well. But the fact that The Undertaker put The Fiend over in such a strong manner speaks volumes of the faith he has in the character.
Plus, we know that in every case any segment at Survivor Series is generally a lead-in to WrestleMania the following year.
#3 The Undertaker's supposed final match happened in front of no audience
As good as the Boneyard match between AJ Styles and The Undertaker was, it was a contest that would have blown the roof of the building, had it happened in front of a packed arena. Because it happened in front of no crowd at all, one has to believe that The Undertaker will want his final hurrah to take place before a packed live crowd.
WrestleVotes has stated that the objective from WWE's perspective is to have people in the arena for WrestleMania and this could be why The Undertaker and Bray Wyatt could engage in a sort of a clash at Survivor Series when The Phenom takes his bow.
And while this point wasn't strong enough to warrant it's own entry, as a separate slide, one has to wonder why The Fiend, one of the top stars of the company would be kept out of the Survivor Series card otherwise, considering that it is one of the Big 4 pay-per-views for WWE.
#2 How John Cena's Firefly Funhouse match with The Fiend set the trend for storytelling without physically taking bumps
Whether you loved it or hated it, the Firefly Funhouse match between John Cena and The Fiend was a revolutionary concept, where John Cena, who has gone Hollywood now could be a part of the WrestleMania proceedings without having to physically take a bump at all.
If someone has an even bigger legacy and career than John Cena, it is The Undertaker and The Fiend could take him on a dark and twisted journey of his own, in yet another Firefly Funhouse match.
The Undertaker may physically not be in his prime, but this is a match where he doesn't need to be, where fans get a glimpse of the man and everything he has accomplished, as the mind games of The Fiend overwhelm him and he is forced to call it quits at last.
The author strongly believes that despite all his protests to the contrary, pro wrestling is the business of make believe and The Undertaker could be 'working' us.
The Fiend vs. The Undertaker is pretty much the only dream match left for the legend from the current WWE roster.
#1 The Undertaker is old school and will want to go out on his back, for the benefit of the wrestling business
The Undertaker clashed with Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 31, and while many had assumed that The Phenom would go out on his back at the event and pass the torch to his successor, The Undertaker emerged as the victor in that contest.
It is generally a tradition in pro wrestling that when you hang up your boots, you pass the torch to someone you believe could benefit the business. We know that The Undertaker is old school and that he believes in tradition, so it is very likely indeed that he will go out on his back.
But then again, as has been mentioned at the very start of this article, we have no way of knowing whether The Undertaker indeed wants to call it quits as he's mentioned in interviews or if he's working us.
Do you think that there is yet another clash that awaits us between The Undertaker and Bray Wyatt?
