Ever since retiring from in-ring action in 2020, The Undertaker has been living a life of solitude. However, for the first time in a long while, The Phenom teased his return to the squared circle. During a recent appearance on the Impaulsive podcast, the WWE legend spoke about his tantalizing desire to come back for one last match to punctuate his illustrious career with an exclamation point.
There has been a lot of speculation in light of his recent comments, with fans wondering about the potential venue and opponent for his final match. The Undertaker might return for a match at WrestleMania 41 next year against the superstar that he admires the most. The name in question is none other than Gunther.
The prospect of it happening arose due to the WWE Hall of Famer's comments on the reigning World Heavyweight Champion back in June of this year. While speaking on his Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway podcast, The Deadman heaped praise on The Ring General and commended his exceptional in-ring prowess and storytelling abilities.
The Undertaker referred to Gunther as "his guy," further emphasizing the admiration he has for the Imperium leader. The Phenom's high praise for The Ring General, along with his desire for an in-ring return, added fuel to the speculations about this highly anticipated showdown taking place at The Grandest Stage of Them All next year.

It would be an absolute treat for fans if The Deadman returned to compete in his last showdown against Gunther at The Show of Shows next year.
Possibility of The Undertaker competing against Gunther at WWE WrestleMania 41
WrestleMania 41 is still eight months away and The Undertaker's recent comments sparked speculation about his in-ring return. With his tantalizing desire for one last match and his high admiration for Gunther, will the WWE legend return to the squared circle at The Show of Shows to face The Ring General?
The possibility of it happening is relatively low. Although The Phenom could return for one final match, Gunther might not be the one to face the former at WrestleMania 41. One major potential reason behind it could be that the 36-year-old star recently won the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam.
With The Ring General holding a world title, it might not make sense for him to face The Undertaker at this point in his championship run. There are several top stars and high-profile feuds that are seemingly in contention for Gunther to feature at The Showcase of The Immortals next year.
Even though The Phenom competing against The Ring General could be a dream match for many people, the prospect of it happening at WrestleMania 41 is not plausible, especially with Gunther holding the World Heavyweight Championship.
