The Undertaker vs. The Fiend is one of the biggest dream matches.
The Undertaker vs. The Fiend is one of the biggest dream matches.

Since his debut in 1990, The Undertaker stayed on top of the game. His Deadman gimmick was one of the reasons for his successful career. Needless to say, The Phenom has carried WWE for over three decades.

The former WWE Champion announced his retirement on a WWE Network special, The Last Ride, in 2020. His last match was against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36.

After working in WWE for 30 years, the Hall of Famer has wrestled many veterans as well as young talents. Since WWE is a mammoth company, there are stars the seven-time WWE Champion never faced during his time in WWE.

Here's our list of top WWE superstars who the Undertaker never got to face during his time with WWE.


#5. Finn Balor's Demon King never faced The Undertaker

Finn Balor's alter ego, The Demon King is one of the most charismatic personas in WWE today. The former Universal Champion has been rocking this character since his NXT run.

In an interview, Balor expressed his views on facing The Deadman:

“I would really love to fight Undertaker at WrestleMania but given the fact that I lost the title on Monday, I think I’m gonna attempt to convince Stephanie [McMahon], who I know is here at the World Games, to get me a rematch against Bobby Lashley for the IC Title.”

Unfortunately, the WWE Universe never got to witness the epic confrontation between The Demon King and The Deadman.

#4. Cesaro

Cesaro left WWE after his contract expired in February 2022. He was the most underrated WWE Superstar to ever step foot in a squared circle. The Swiss Cyborg has a great physique and never backs down from showcasing his talent.

The Phenom is also known for its massive stature. Neither of these titans collided as Cesaro was never considered the main event star, and The Undertaker was only obliged to wrestle against top-tier stars.

It would've been a delight to see these two powerhouses locking horns together.


#3. Daniel Bryan vs. The Undertaker would've been a technical masterpiece

Bryan Danielson has been the most technical wrestler in the industry for many years. Despite his huge stature, The Undertaker proved his supremacy in agility from time to time. He pulled off excellent technical matches during his time in WWE against Kurt Angle, John Cena, and Shawn Michaels.

Fans have been wondering what would've happened if The American Dragon and The Deadman collided. While Daniel Bryan was in the prime of his career in WWE, The Undertaker was already past his prime, helping younger stars elevate their careers.

#2. 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt

Bray Wyatt's captivating gimmick Eater of the Worlds caught the eye of the WWE Universe after his main roster debut. His feud with John Cena and Roman Reigns had excellent stories.

Bray Wyatt and The Undertaker battled at WrestleMania 31 where The Deadman defeated the former world champion in a mediocre match. The Undertaker's return after losing to Brock Lesnar was the prime focus of this feud.

In 2019, Bray Wyatt debuted his new gimmick, The Fiend, Bray Wyatt's alter ego. After defeating Eater of the Worlds, fans are wondering if The Phenom could also defeat the Fiend.


#1. 'The Icon' Sting

Sting has been one of the strongest pillars of WCW. During his tenure, he was frequently compared to The Undertaker as both had similar mystical gimmicks. They never collided as both of them were in different companies in the 90s.

As WCW sold out to WWE, fans believed they could finally witness the dream match between Sting and The Undertaker. Sting refused to sign a contract with WWE and joined TNA.

Vigilante made his long-awaited debut in 2014 and lost his first feud against Triple H. His last match came in September 2015, where he lost to Seth Rollins in the main event of Night of Champions.

WWE had a great opportunity to book a dream feud between Sting and The Undertaker but never did. Since Sting has joined AEW and The Deadman isn't lacing his boots up anymore, this match is likely never going to happen.
