The upcoming episode of RAW will feature a contract signing between AJ Styles and The Undertaker for their expected bout at WrestleMania 36. There was some speculation that a Casket Match stipulation would be added, but Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live reported that as of now, there are no such plans for a casket match:

Another update from yesterday. The AJ Styles, he promised to cause Undertaker to die in the ring, he also said that he would literally put the nail in his coffin, which of course, led me to ask, 'well, is it going to be a casket match.' How do you literally put a nail in a coffin if it's not a casket match. The answer is, as of this moment, no, it is not a casket match.

Had the stipulation been in effect, it would mark the first time in 14 years that The Undertaker has had a casket match at WrestleMania 36. Since it seems as though he's going to win (as he should), putting AJ Styles in a casket would be a great way of protecting him.
