Speculations around The Undertaker know no bound to stop as we are just a few days away from Wrestlemania 35. This is the biggest event of the year where this man is a sure-shot name to make a comeback. But this year the situation seems extremely different as there’s no sign of him in the WWE scene.

The Undertaker is a synonymous name with the Wrestlemania event, no matter what. This is the man who has appeared on the show for 26 times and has a record of 24-2 by competing during those show-ups. This year could have marked his 27th appearance which still looks in jeopardy despite some previous positive updates.

Latest reports from a reliable source went back to suggest something negative around The Undertaker. This is perhaps for the first time in the WWE history that we may not see him in the showcase of immortals despite no whatsoever physical problems. WWE did not make any effort to bring The Undertaker back on TV.
Fans were eagerly waiting to see him back onboard ever since the buildup for Wrestlemania 35 has started on Monday Night Raw. Unfortunately, not a single one storyline involved the seven-time WWE Champion hinting that he is coming back on TV, very soon. The pro-wrestling fans were desperately waiting to see him.
However, Brad Shepard has a negative update on the situation. He claimed on Oh You Didn’t Know Podcast that there’s no internal news available around the Undertaker, either. The backstage crews are working without getting any additional information about him. They didn’t have much information just like the fans, which is pretty amusing.
Here’re more statements from Shepard that WWE Universe might not like to hear at all,
“WWE is now operating as if The Undertaker will not be at WrestleMania which is a big surprise to people internally. They did expect he would probably at least appear, they would work it out. Doesn’t look like that’s going to happen now at least as of right now they’re operating as if he won’t be there. So very interesting.” [H/T PWMania]
As reported earlier, Vince McMahon was not happy with The Undertaker who removed all WWE mentions from his bio. This led to the rumors that his deal with the WWE might have been over. Plus, he was booking himself in indie appearances like Starrcast II which is why it seems certain that The Deadman may not rise this year.
