5 wrestlers The Undertaker never faced one-on-one on TV

#4. The Undertaker vs. Dusty Rhodes

WWE Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes

We can only imagine what it would have been like if The Undertaker and 'The American Dream' Dusty Rhodes had collided in the ring one-on-one. Unfortunately, it was all about timing as to why these two legendary stars never faced each other.

Dusty Rhodes, despite wrestling for multiple promotions such as the NWA and WCW, only stayed in WWE for a short time. It meant that The Deadman and Dream were only in the same locker room for a cup of coffee. Had Dusty been in WWE much longer, he most certainly would have been pitted against The Phenom eventually.

The Undertaker has been in the ring with Dusty's sons Goldust and Cody Rhodes before. He faced Goldust multiple times in 1996 and Cody in the Royal Rumble match in 2008.

Cody discussed crossing paths with The Undertaker with Inside The Ropes in January 2020:

"I go over and I hit this man as hard as I’ve hit anyone in the back of the head. I felt him stop. [He does the slow head turn]. I’m the bad guy now. I’m [backing away]. All of a sudden he goozles me. I think I’m going up. He says, ‘kick me in the knee.’ I kick him in the knee, he lets his hand go. And he goes, ‘dropkick me.’ I jump up, dropkick him, he takes a bump! You can see, I didn’t know what to do," Cody Rhodes said. (h/t TalkSPORT)

Cody continued:

"The goal is to get the guy out of the match, but I’m not going to pick him up. So I just go over to the corner and start fake punching somebody. But man, after that, Taker was God to me. Everything about this guy is about giving back. He absolutely did not need to do that. Plus, I stiffed the hell out of him. I love The Undertaker," Cody Rhodes said. (h/t TalkSPORT)

The Undertaker vs. Dusty Rhodes would have been another legendary WrestleMania worthy match. In reality, we probably should have gotten it in the early '90s but circumstances didn't allow it. Long live The Dream.
