Numerous sources say Undertaker will return at Summer Slam. Sources say that WWE is even trying to set the stage for his return. Also there is suppose to be a match at Madison Square Garden featuring him in a 6 man tag teaming with Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman.

The No.1 thing i'm wondering about is who is he facing at Summer Slam? I hope it isn't Braun Strowman because that should be his rightful WrestleMania Retirement match opponent.

So who do you think Taker will face at Summer Slam?

Joe, Strowman, Balor, AJ

Taker vs Roman vs Brock maybe
Braun Strowman:
It's easy to hype up since Undertaker has faced numerous big men over his career, but has there been any that pulled off as many huge power spots as Strowman? I think the story potential for the two is really good, and since Strowman (from what I've seen) is pretty safe in the ring, he should be a fun opponent.

AJ Styles: If WWE wants to pretend the WWE Championship is a main event title and not a midcard title, then Undertaker vs. AJ Styles is the way to go. As far as match quality is concerned, there's probably not a better opponent in the company than AJ. I can see this being a huge draw.

Samoa Joe: Less of a threat kayfabe-wise than Strowman, but much better on the microphone. If Undertaker isn't going to be on TV at all during the feud, then having Joe be the guy to talk to the wall every week is best. There's hardly anyone that can match his work on the microphone. WWE might do a spot where the ref gets knocked out and Joe locks in the clutch. 'Taker passes out, but no ref, so Joe releases him and goes to get the ref back up, but just as he does so Undertaker sits up.

Balor: The pairing of Balor and Undertaker just sounds awkward in my head. I can't picture Balor being a significant threat in the eyes of the Deadman.

Reigns and Lesnar: This would be interesting since it'd be both his WrestleMania losses in one match, but I can't imagine this being booked without Undertaker winning. That aside, he already had a vengeance feud against Lesnar and lost in the end, which makes him facing Lesnar again feel a bit pointless.

Of the guys you propose, I like Strowman the best.

WrestleMania Retirement match
Undertaker will become a genuine zombie before he has a retirement match.

Either AJ or Rusev as champ against Undertaker. More likely AJ. A big win over Undertaker will cement his place as a main eventer.

If that's the case then Strowman vs Undertaker at Summer Slam has great chances

I would love to see him face AJ Styles and Braun Strowman

1.AJ Styles vs The Undertaker for the WWE title is an awesome idea. The Phenomenal one vs The Phenom.

2.Braun Strowman vs The Undertaker would be a classic. Undertaker play mind games with Braun; and Braun does things like break a casket in half and flips over a hearse. If Braun wins this would be the biggest win of his career so far.

AJ defeats Taker. Sets up AJ vs HBK. Kinda fucks up Takers big comeback though.

Hopefully no one. But, if we have to suffer through him taking up more air time, he should face Cena in a rematch, considering how their match at mania had a good story, underperformed, and taker actually showing up seemed to throw Cena off guard, which that’s what made him lose. The story is there and it makes sense.

Braun Strowman vs Undertaker is the most likely. HIAC is the next ppv after SummerSlam. If WWE want Taker to wrestle more dates then HIAC makes sense. Braun vs Taker in a HIAC is something I can see happening. I think Strowman is simple and theatrical enough to have an entertaining match with an ageing Taker. It could work.

We that's ironic coming from someone who suggest he face Cena and Balor. Then wants him injured the next minute

I never said I want to see him wrestle. I was just throwing out possible scenarios.

Taker is too old, he needs to hang it up. Should of retired w/ the Streak.
