#2 Drew McIntyre

2020 is the year of Drew McIntyre and that goes without saying. The Scottish Terminator started off the new decade by winning the Royal Rumble match. He then proceeded to win the WWE Championship from Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 36. But do you know that the Scottish Psychopath was once considered to challenge The Undertaker's WrestleMania streak?

Yes, that's true. The current WWE Champion recently told WWE on BT Sport that he was in line to face the Deadman at WrestleMania 26 (2010). However, those plans were shelved. Even McIntyre admitted that he wasn't ready back then. Instead, we got the outstanding The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels: Streak vs. Career match at the show, which is cherished by the WWE Universe to this day.

The Undertaker and Drew McIntyre ended up facing each other on a SmackDown episode in 2010, where the former defeated the Chosen One, who was still 24-years old at that time. The Phenom also got himself involved in Roman Reigns' feud with Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre last year.

While there's no denying that Drew McIntyre would want to face The Undertaker in singles action now that he is the face of the company, The Phenom may have already wrestled his last match. The current version of McIntyre squaring off against The Undertaker would surely have been a brawl for the ages.
