Some people are calling for the Undertaker to put an end to his career following his amazing Hell in a Cell match with Triple H at WrestleMania 28. It makes sense. It was an amazing match, not only already frontrunner for 2012 Match of the Year, but one of the best matches in WrestleMania history. The psychology utilized and the story told truly depicted the “End of an Era,” exactly as the match was billed to be.
The Undertaker won’t be able to have a better wrestling match to go out on. But, I think it’s appropriate that the Undertaker ends his career with a match that we all know, ahead of time, is the end of his career. However that would be conveyed, I’m not sure, but it’s important that Undertaker receives a curtain call that is his and nobody else’s. If anyone in the WWE deserves it, it’s the Undertaker, who has been as dedicated to the company as anyone in its history.
That leaves one question — who should he face at Wrestlemania 29 next April for his final match? Here, I’ll raise some possible opponents and why each would make sense. I’ll start with what I think is the least likely opponent and work my way to the most likely opponent. (Don’t forget to voice your opinion in the poll at the end of this post.)
