The latest edition of the Saudi mega-events, WWE Super ShowDown 2020 is set to take place on February 27 at the Mohammed Abdu Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This being the first instance of these Saudi PPVs taking place on the Road to WrestleMania, there are huge chances of the show having a big impact on WrestleMania 36, which is less than 40 days after Super ShowDown 2020.
WWE has done a decent job with the match card as we have a few massive events to look out for, including the first-time ever clash between "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt and Goldberg for the Universal Championship.
WWE Superstars recently landed in Saudi Arabia, and there was a massive name spotted among them, The Undertaker. This could be a huge spoiler indicating that the Dead Man might have a surprise appearance at the Saudi show. But what could we expect from him?
In this article, let's take a look at the five things The Undertaker could do at WWE Super ShowDown 2020. Be sure to let us know your predictions and opinions in the comments section below.
#5 An impromptu match
WWE has been very careful about using the Phenom these days, especially after his match against Goldberg at Super ShowDown 2019. This year as well, WWE seemed to have no plans for him until now when he was spotted in Saudi Arabia.
While he does not have a scheduled match at the show, the company can always use him to have a short impromptu match. This could be useful in giving him some ring time before his rumored WrestleMania match, and would also keep the Saudi crowd happy as they get to see a legendary Superstar perform in front of them.
With Mansoor not being in any match, WWE could also use 'Taker in a segment with the local hero, putting him over big time.

#4 Cut a promo addressing his future
The talks of the imminent retirement of The Undertaker have been around for almost a decade now, and every time the Dead Man somehow manages to say "not today" to it (Game of Thrones reference, wink wink).
Making his debut in the year 1990, this year would mark his 30th Anniversary with the company - a feat that is as legendary as it gets. Even after all these years, he continues to be one of the biggest attractions for the company, whom Vince McMahon trusts to deliver whenever needed.
One of the things The Undertaker could do at WWE Super ShowDown is simply come down to the ring for a segment and cut a promo in his chilling voice. He could go on to address his career with WWE and tease being done with the business and hanging up his boots soon.
Well, this could, of course, lead to a WrestleMania match against an opponent who could once again claim to retire the Dead Man. But the promo is sure to create a cloud of suspense as to what is next for The Undertaker?
#3 A "showdown" with the Phenomenal One
As per the latest rumors, the name that is scheduled to take on the Undertaker at WrestleMania 36 is none other than AJ Styles. The Phenomenal One has been one of the biggest stars of the company in the last few years, and if the reports are to be believed, the Dead Man himself has chosen him as his opponent at the Show of Shows.
In his recent promo on Monday Night RAW, Styles also teased this match as he went on to call himself the new Mr. WrestleMania. Earlier it was revealed that Taker wanted to face him because he was the closest to this generation's Shawn Michaels, who himself is known as Mr. WrestleMania. I see the dots connecting!
At Super ShowDown, AJ Styles is all set to compete in the Gauntlet match for the Tuwaiq trophy. Without any doubt, he is the favorite to win the match and gain some momentum before his rumored WrestleMania clash against the Dead Man. The Undertaker appearing after his victory to have a face-off with him could be an ideal way to set up their 'Mania encounter. Do you guys want to see the Phenom take on the Phenomenal One?
#2 No on-screen appearance
Well, before we move on to the last point, let's hold our horses. Even though The Undertaker has been spotted in Saudi Arabia alongside the rest of the roster, it doesn't necessarily mean that he'll show up on the PPV.
Mind you, the Dead Man has previously been present on numerous such shows backstage and hasn't made an on-screen appearance. One of the biggest examples of the same is last year's WrestleMania, where he was backstage (as confirmed in the latest WWE 24 episode of WrestleMania New York), but did not show up.
It has been a widespread opinion among the WWE Universe that the company uses him more at the Saudi shows instead of using him at WrestleManias, but it is not completely true as well as the Phenom did not appear at WWE Crown Jewel last year at Saudi Arabia.
His presence in the country could simply be used in some promotional activities by the company as last year when he appeared in the promotional parade for the show in Saudi Arabia. With Taker recently appearing out of character in public quite a few times, it won't be a huge surprise to see the company hold a meet-and-greet session with him for the Saudi fans.
#1 Call out Sting for a match at WrestleMania 36
There are some great matches, some dream matches, and then there comes The Undertaker vs Sting. A match that has been on the wishlist of almost every wrestling fan at some point in their life, the company has somehow not booked the two against each other yet.
Not long ago, the rumors of this match happening at WrestleMania 36 resurfaced again, with many expecting Sting to show up at the Royal Rumble to start the build-up. Unfortunately, nothing as such happened.
The Icon has been very open about him wanting a match against The Undertaker, claiming that he'll only come out of retirement if it's for a match against the Phenom. One has to believe that if WWE wants to have this feud, this might just be their last opportunity to book it as we don't know whether the Dead Man will be around for WrestleMania next year.
While WWE could also just book this as yet another Saudi Arabia dream match, it won't go down well with the fans in the USA, who have been waiting so long to see the two legends clash inside a WWE ring.
Although this is more of a bold prediction, The Undertaker appearing at Super ShowDown and calling out the Sting for a match at WrestleMania 36 is sure to be a memorable segment.
