Making all rumours true, the Undertaker appeared on last night’s episode of Monday night Raw in the city where he lost his Wrestlemania streak. It was three years ago at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana where the Phenome was pinned by Brock Lesnar to become 21-1. It was evident when he is returning to the city he is coming up with a bigger announcement.

So, he announced his return to the Royal Rumble match after a long time. To make the 30th anniversary of the event even bigger he will enter the prestigious 30 man elimination match to get back into the main event picture at Wrestlemania. January 29th will mark his return to in-ring action. But, he showed a preview of things to come after the cameras stopped rolling.

The Undertaker was reserved in a special capacity for the fans in attendance in a special treat. We went off the air with Jericho winning the United States title for the first time and celebrating it with his best friend. The celebration continued as Raw went off the air.
In between the celebration the lights went out all of a sudden and the Undertaker’s gong hit the arena. When the lights came back we witnessed the Undertaker standing in front of Jeri-KO.

Owens and Jericho grabbed a mic to talk some trash to the Deadman. The Universal champion even said that Undertaker was his mother’s favourite wrestler. But, the Phenom was in no mood to listen to all of that and went right after the best friends.

Owens pushed Jericho into the Undertaker’s hand to eat a massive chokeslam. He wanted to run away but got caught and hit with another chokeslam. The segment ended with both the champions lying after digesting the wrath of the Undertaker.
