5 things that could happen on RAW next week: Roman Reigns suspended

#2 Undertaker gets a vague teaser video - Deadman or Biker Taker?

John Cena called out The Undertaker on RAW

There has been speculation that with Kid Rock being inducted into the Hall of Fame this year, WWE may use him to play The Undertaker down to the ring the way Limp Bizkit did in 2003 for WrestleMania 19. I would be all for that.

With the way John Cena called Undertaker out in a more “shoot style” manner this week, confirming that it is Undertaker himself, not management, who is refusing to have the match, I would much prefer to see ‘Taker return as a more humanized version of himself. Maybe not quite “Mark Callaway” and maybe not exactly the same Biker Taker from the past, but a version of the man fairly close to reality.

I would say that they should completely ignore the terrible promo from RAW 25 and make believe it never happened and claim that last year’s WrestleMania ending was symbolic of the end of the Deadman character, but not necessarily of his actual retirement.

It bugs me that people are so attached to the mystical character. The idea that the best way to end his career is to have him take on Kane one last time is silly. They’ve done it before, and it’s never been good. The idea that he has to end his career as The Deadman and not as any other character is also ridiculous to me.

The attachment to that gimmick bugs me so much. It doesn’t fit in with the current style of the company, and it just feels old. Even as far back as 2005, he was playing more of an evil undead cowboy than the old school Undertaker character. I think the guy who came back and went after Brock Lesnar a couple of years back would be pretty close to what I would like to see for the Cena feud. I guess we’ll see what happens.
