Welcome back to wrestling world!
Today we’ll be taking a look at the wrestling news around The Undertaker’s WWE return
at survivor series and the entire situation with the individuals wanting to shut the WWE
venues down
So let’s start things off with The Undertaker
The Undertaker still remains as one of the most iconic characters in WWE history
Just about everyone has heard of The Undertaker before and what’s even more hard to believe
is that he’s still competing in current day at age 55
The Undertaker did recently sign a contract that will keep him tied to WWE well into his
70s, but obviously we will be retiring from in-ring action way before that age
The Undertaker teased earlier this year that Wrestlemania 36 and the boneyard match was
his final farewell match and even though it was not in front of a sold out crowd, it was
still a great farewell match if that was in fact his last one
Undertaker is getting older and obviously you don’t want to continue to put his body
through all that harm in the ring, but Undertaker has never really stuck to his word about retirement
Undertaker has probably had more farewell matches than anyone else in WWE history
Remember back in 2012, WWE was promoting Undertaker’s Wrestlemania match as the “end of an era”
leading fans to believe he was retiring, but then he came back
Then in Wrestlemania 30, we saw the streak get broken and everyone thought that was his
final match
Then he came back a few more times after that.
At Wrestlemania 33, after losing to Roman Reigns, The Undertaker left his coat and hat
in the middle of the ring and fans once again understood that as his WWE farewell
But as you can see, he just kept coming back.
So retirement is nothing new for The Undertaker, you can see he retired about 5 to 6 times
in the years past
But this year seemed like the real deal, this was his actual retirement...well now there’s
news about his WWE return again
New reports claim that WWE will be looking to get John Cena and The Undertaker on the
Wrestlemania 37 card only if they’re allowed to have a huge live crowd present
If they’re able to have the crowd then they want Cena and Undertaker, but if there’s
no crowd again then they may cancel their plans
There’s also other reports going around about Wrestlemania 37 truly being the relaunch
of the WWE
Vince McMahon reportedly wants Wrestlemania 37 to send a message to everyone that “WWE
is fully back and better than ever”
That’s what the report claims, he just wants to go all out to really start a new era with
the return of live crowds and something big like Undertaker’s Return
But it doesn’t look like we’ll have to wait all the way until next year for undertaker’s
return
With this upcoming survivor series being the 30th anniversary of Undertaker’s WWE debut,
reports claim that this year’s survivor series will be fully themed after The Undertaker
The show will obviously be topped off with an appearance from The Undertaker himself
as well
Now is that appearance for a match, a promo, or just a beatdown of some random superstar?
It’s hard to tell, but what we do know is that you can expect to see him in some capacity
at survivor series
now the reason why I believe this report is because not only is his 30th anniversary a
big deal and deserves a big celebration, but WWE might have leaked some of the survivor
series material themselves
WWE recently had a photoshoot with several superstars where they all had on undertaker
inspired ring gear
The two superstars that leaked from the photoshoot was Sasha Banks and Alexa Bliss
Alexa Bliss was seen taking pictures with this all black top and bottoms that really
looked like they were themed after the undertaker
And if that wasn’t enough evidence, Sasha’s photoshoot gave it away even more
Sasha was seen in the photoshoot wearing a black undertaker-like tank top with the all
black pants and she even had Bayley’s name written across her neck and was doing undertaker’s
signature gesture
Now when these pictures of Alexa and Sasha first came out, no one really thought much
of it
I remember talking about it and just saying that maybe it was for a Halloween photoshoot
or something, but Halloween is quickly approaching and WWE hasn’t released the pictures yet
Leading me to believe that everything they did with Sasha, Alexa, and others during that
photoshoot might just be promotion material for this big Undertaker themed show at survivor
series
That’s not confirmed at all, that’s just my personal theory because it really makes
sense and checks out
It looks like they will use promotion images of the superstars dressed up like the undertaker
for survivor series 2020
Sasha’s photoshoot also seems to contain a slight spoiler for survivor series considering
that fact that she has Bayley’s name written across her neck
So that tells us that their feud isn’t ending at Hell in a cell regardless of the outcome,
it looks like Sasha Banks vs Bayley will spill into survivor series which will be another
great match for the card
As far as Alexa bliss goes, she didn’t have anything on that really gave any hints about
what she may be doing on the show, but like we just saw on raw, it seems like Retribution
has just gotten into some issues with The Fiend and Alexa Bliss, so we’ll see if that’s
what they do on that show
But either way The Undertaker’s Return seems to be happening in just a few weeks with this
big survivor series show, so we’ll we see what’s in store for The Undertaker
———————————————-
So this is really interesting, local news in Florida revealed that there was a group
of individuals highlighting possible hot zone areas for the spread of the virus and all
of WWE’s venues made the list
Spotted in the list of hot zones was WWE’s Amway Center, WWE’s performance center,
and NXT’s old home of Full Sail University
Apparently this group has pushed this list so far to the point that WWE could be getting
investigated and possibly have these arenas shut down if they don’t pass inspection
This was huge state wide news that quickly became globally known news
WWE responded quickly to the news and fired back by releasing this official statement:
“WWE is not open to the public, but rather operating on a closed set with only essential
personnel in attendance.
As part of on-going weekly testing protocols, Aventus Labs have administered more than 10,000
PCR tests to WWE performers, employees, production staff, and crew, resulting in only 1.5 percent
positive cases as compared to the current national average of more than 5%.
Additionally, extensive contact tracing takes place, and impacted individuals are placed
in 14-day quarantine and then only cleared after they test negative”
Apparently WWE’s word is just not enough to go by for these individuals.
It’s being reported that a team will still be sent to pay a visit to these WWE’s venues
and perform an up close and personal examination to see if WWE is in fact running everything
the way they’re supposed to be
WWE was criticized for how they handled things during the late spring and early summer, but
they’ve been doing an amazing job lately of keeping the superstars safe.
They even cancelled raw underground fro the safety of their superstars
Kevin Owens opened up several months ago about how he didn’t feel safe and considered taking
time off, but he mentioned how he spoke with Vince McMahon and they made the proper changes
that convinced him to stay
Triple H also talked about this issue a few weeks ago.
He said that a superstar’s personal life, is their personal life, they can’t really
tell them what to do and what not to do during their own time, but he did note that WWE has
requested for their superstars to be a bit more careful and responsible during this time
However, like we just last weekend, superstars are going on Instagram live, showing themselves
at these huge events and it doesn’t seem that responsible at all
But We’ve seen it in recent weeks, no matter who you are, if you had contact with another
positive testing superstar, you get put away for 2 weeks and must test negative before
being allowed back in, they have been doing an amazing job of keeping that under control
But it will all come down to this apparent visit and inspection by this team
If WWE isn’t running things to their liking then who knows what that could mean for the
WWE, but I don’t think there should be much to worry about here
Hopefully WWE will have everything under control, especially now that they’re being focused
on and accused of being a hot zone, but we’ll have to see how that story unfolds as well,
so stay tuned for updates on this story as more information continues to be released
