3. Give Undertaker One Last Title Shot

Undertaker has floated around WWE for years to be around WrestleMania and sometimes other events like SummerSlam. This has all been in (mostly) one-off feuds, however, all of which have not been for championships. CM Punk, Shane McMahon, Brock Lesnar, and Bray Wyatt have been recent opponents for the Dead Man, but all fit the previously noted profile.

There comes a time where what Undertaker is doing may seem repetitive. He shows up, gets challenged by a big name, defeats them (more often than not), and repeats. There is never usually anything on the line, except for the WrestleMania 32 match with McMahon that did not have a game-changing result.

This time around, with a Royal Rumble win, Undertaker could develop his first title feud in years to give him something fresh to do. It may not necessarily result in a win, but if he’s on his last legs, this may be the time to go through with putting him around the WWE or Universal Championship one last time. If so, the tens of thousands at Camping World Stadium will be behind him as he goes for the World title in the main event of the show.
