5 superstars The Undertaker could face if he does not retire

The Phen
The Phenom is scheduled to make his return this Sunday

The Undertaker is the most celebrated WWE Superstar of all time; becoming a standard bearer in the world of professional wrestling. Having participated in 25 WrestleMania's, the Icon holds an untouchable record of 23 wins and two losses.

However, his past encounters at "The Show of Shows" have diminished his in-ring credibility. Despite losing to Roman Reigns in what was considered a final outing, "The Phenom" would be returning to New Orleans tonight to face John Cena.

Considering the Undertaker returns to the squared circle again, it would only prove that he is still not done. So if that's the case, there are tons of superstars who are waiting in line to get an opportunity to dance with the 53-year old.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Here are the 5 Superstars The Undertaker could face if he's not retired.


#5 Samoa Joe

The D
The Destroyer Vs The Dead Man

The Undertaker has been indispensable in making WrestleMania a global phenomenon today. The company needs credible heels, and someone as vicious as Samoa Joe, could step up and face "The Phenom."

Both superstars have never squared off in a 20 x 20 ring and possess different styles of wrestling. Samoa Joe's proficiency came on full display in a money-making feud against Brock Lesnar.

The Destroyer was protected throughout; establishing him as a "force to reckon with."

If the Undertaker's still not done, then a potential bout with "The Samoan Submission Machine" could bring the house down.

#4 Finn Balor

A
A dream match

"The First-Ever Universal Champion" carries a strong charisma that has made him a marketable man in the WWE. Finn Balor has all the credentials in the world that make him an ideal fit to face the Undertaker in singles competition.

At this stage of his career, The Undertaker needs someone who is agile and versatile in the ring, and Finn Balor is everything he needs.

Imagine The Demon vs The Phenom at "The Grandest Stage of Them All" and you shall feel what I am feeling at this very moment.

A match with The Undertaker is the opening Finn needs to become an established name in the world of professional wrestling. This feud would be compelling, further bringing out the best in Finn Balor.

#3 Seth Rollins

The Architect
The Architect Vs The Phenom could steal the show

The Undertaker has never squared off against Seth Rollins in singles competition despite facing two-thirds of the Shield previously. "The Architect" is a versatile performer and delivers tremendous performances on a weekly basis.

Despite being directionless in 2017, Rollins has finally found himself in a pleasant spot. Regardless of what happens tonight, "The Man" is heading for greater things in 2018.

Therefore, if the 31-year old Superstar is looking to reclaim the main event spot, then a showdown with the Undertaker could push him to the limits.

The feud, the booking, and the matches could be terrific; elevating Rollins to another level. The Undertaker's physical condition has depreciated his in-ring value, but the "King Slayer" could carry him to a fantastic match.

#2 AJ Styles

What
Talk about a Phenomenal bout

Realistically, if AJ Styles were a WWE superstar back in the day, we would have seen this clash a dozen times. Nonetheless, the match still looks like a genuine possibility with a future WrestleMania clash hanging in the balance.

"The Prince of Phenomenal" vs "The Prince of Darkness" is a marketable feud that could do wonders for WWE. Considering how protean Styles is in the ring, he could carry the Undertaker to a career-defining bout.

The 40-year old Superstar defends his WWE Championship against Shinsuke Nakamura tonight and presuming he loses, Styles could move to Raw for bigger things. "The Phenomenal One" could make the Undertaker look like a million bucks and could deliver an exceptional match with "The Phenom."

#1 Daniel Bryan

Ys
Yes! Yes! Yes!

The Undertaker vs Daniel Bryan is a dream match for all the wrestling fans around the world. Ever since Daniel Bryan's heroic return to the squared circle, the fans have started anticipating what's next for "The Underdog."

Bryan's return has opened tons of possibilities for him as a performer. This dream match however looks solid on paper. A match of this caliber certainly deserves a WrestleMania showdown with "The Yes Man" avowing to put the Undertaker down once and for all.

Add a Career vs Career stipulation to the mix and you have a gigantic clash on your hands. Both superstars can give fans something to remember, with The Prince of Darkness passing the torch to a visibly-focused Bryan.
