For several weeks, Bray Wyatt has come out to the WWE Raw crowd and talked about an ominous man that he wanted to call out. It wasn’t until two weeks ago that the man he was calling out was the Undertaker. Since then, Wyatt has come out in a casket to Undertaker’s music, as well as last night’s festivities with Undertaker’s urn.

Last night on WWE Raw, the weeks of calling him out culminated into one question. Wyatt proceeded to bring out the urn and call out the Undertaker officially. It was up to the Deadman to answer Wyatt’s challenge and take on the “New Face of Fear” at WrestleMania.
After the initial gong, the Undertaker didn’t come out. The WWE Raw crowd went ballistic at the first initial sight of the Phenom. Instead, a video appears on the titantron that showed Undertaker’s intentions were very clear.

The WWE crowd in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania was elated at the fact Undertaker was officially going to return at WrestleMania. He’s been out of action since WrestleMania 30, which was apparent after losing his first match at WrestleMania to Brock Lesnar. Many thought Undertaker would retire following that match. Apparently, that isn’t the case. After the answer on the titantron, he sent Wyatt another message.

It was unknown if the Undertaker was actually going to show up on WWE Raw. After all, his usage at WrestleMania was unknown until a month and a half ago. WWE fans weren’t sure if he would show up at all. In an earlier report on the Inquisitr, there was speculation that Undertaker would be in Pittsburgh last night.
After watching everything transpire, it didn’t make much sense to bring out the Phenom for one night. He’s starting to be the ultimate star attraction, along with Sting. Other rumors last week said the Deadman wouldn’t show up at all until the night of WrestleMania. At this stage of his career, he doesn’t need to show up on WWE programming. Along with Sting, Undertaker can say nothing, yet go massively over.
WWE is playing the card beautifully with the storyline here. Bray Wyatt is a masterful heel, and the Undertaker will look like the savior of the masses at WrestleMania. The scene last night was truly amazing as well. With the chair on fire, the urn smoking, and WWE’s titantron message from the Undertaker, this storyline is working to be a wonderful display at WrestleMania.
