The only plans that are believable are Kane and Michaels both wanting to face Undertaker and fighting for the right at No Way Out and the actual Michaels vs. Undertaker match at WrestleMania. Everything between NWO and WM sounds stupid and terrible. Why wouldn’t they just say that Undertaker is planning on retiring after WM instead of “returning to Death Valley?â€
I can see both Michaels and Undertaker going into WM as faces, then when the finish comes, Michaels assaults Undertaker with a steel chair like the article says, beginning a heel run right then and there. BOOM, pyro explodes, and Kane comes walking down to the ring and climbs to the apron and over the top rope. Michaels charges at Kane, who picks him up and drops him with a Tombstone. Kane just stands there and watches as Undertaker crawls over on his own and drapes an arm over Michaels for the 1.….2.….3. After the match, Undertaker gets to his feet and stands face to face with Kane. Suddenly, the lights go out, and when they come back on, Undertaker is gone, and Kane is left standing in the middle of the ring as WM25 comes to an end (the Paul Bearer return is unnecessary as well).
Basically, there are parts in the article I believe and some I don’t.
