The signs point to a return for the Undertaker, but what’s actually confirmed for tonight’s Raw?:
With the undertaker making an in-ring return over the weekend in Waco, Texas, one would assume he’s on his way back in front of the camera. In a rare move WWE officially Touted his entrance and have coverage on WWE.com discussing the appearance. This would strongly suggest that he’ll be at tonight’s episode of Raw from the American Airlines Center in Dallas. Presumably they hyped his house show spot online as way to spike a rating for tonight. If he doesn’t show up it would almost be a slap to the face.
That being said, according to Jim Ross this doesn’t mean the Deadman has agreed to wrestle at Wrestlemania. Writing on his JRSBARBQ.com blog…
“My Twitter @JRsBBQ blew up last night when photos of Taker in the ring in Waco starting being posted and then WWE.com posted more info and things really got crazy. Obsessed fans had the rest of the year booked within a matter of minutes as it relates to Taker.
“Perhaps these fans should spend as much time on their school homework.
“Like everyone else, I hope that Taker’s return to the squared circle results in him performing at WM29 but I would suggest that isn’t exactly a ‘done deal’ as I write this. Perhaps we will learn more next week on WWE TV or the week after. I’m willing to simply stay tuned and enjoy the ride and I remain optimistic. (What a novel concept.)”
Perhaps JR shouldn’t get so arsey about fans getting excited, but we will indeed have to wait and see what happens.
We hope the Undertaker will make his long awaited return, but if not there’s still Brock Lesnar and Rey Mysterio confirmed, and the much hyped “fight” between Mr. McMahon and Paul Heyman. Something tells us Lesnar won’t be watching from the sidelines. The main event will see John Cena put his Wrestlemania spot on the line to CM Punk.
WWE.com is promoting Glenn Beck’s response to his invite from WWE, Zeb Colter and Jack Swagger. We know he’s turned the offer down, but WWE won’t miss a chance to bash him on air.
They’re also hyping the following preview points…
- Does Paul Heyman have a fighting chance against McMahon? He seemd to think so on Twitter, writing: “Got no choice. Gonna kick Vince McMahon‘s ass!”
- What’s next for the tumultuous relationship between Kane and Daniel Bryan?
- Can anyone stop The Shield?
- How will Brad Maddox fit in to his new role as Assistant to the Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero?
- John Cena vs CM Punk.
The solo Prime Time Player Titus O’Neil wrote the following on Twitter earlier today: “Off to church then off to Dallas for @WWE #RAW Lots of Rumors will be Killed tomorrow night!!Stay tuned….#Wrestlemania29″
Could he be in for a big push now that his partner Darren Young are out for 8 months?
