- As previously noted, WWE is bringing in The Undertaker to work the upcoming tour of Mexico – October 16th in Merida, October 17th in Mexico City and October 18th in Monterrey. This is huge news compared to The Phenom’s usually limited schedule over the past half a decade where he has been competing only in the annual Wrestlemania match and the occasional appearance through the year.
This year has been a welcome departure for ‘The Deadman’, who was seen during the whole Summerslam season and now will be doing live events and finishing up with a ‘Hell in a Cell’ match against Brock Lesnar later in October. WWE has announced that Undertaker will be teaming up with Kane to reform ‘Brothers of Destruction’ to face the team of Luke Harper and Braun Strowman on all three nights.
Below is a promo of the tour:
- The Chris Jericho vs Kevin Owens match announced for the WWE Network special from Madison Square Garden has been announced for the WWE Intercontinental title. The change came after earlier the match was set to be a non-title affair.
Also added to the exciting line-up is an appearance by Kane. The changes were announced by the MSG website yesterday. The card is headlined by a US title bout between Seth Rollins and John Cena, while special attraction Brock Lesnar is also set to be in action against The Big Show.
