Undertaker to return at WrestleMania 34? John Cena calls out the Phenom on Raw before appearing to snatch dream match away
COULD The Undertaker be about to make a stunning return to WrestleMania to fight John Cena?
That is what the whole wrestling world is talking about after the leader of the Cenation issued a challenge to the Dead Man on Raw.
Cena is a desperate man as WWE closes in on the Showcase of the Immortals.
Having lost out in the Elimination Chamber, the 16-time world champ is currently left without a match for the Grandest Stage of Them All.
And that led to him receiving one of the biggest reactions ever seen from a live wrestling crowd on Raw as he officially called out Taker.
The showdown between the veterans would be one of the all-time dream matches.
But just as soon as he teased the possibility to the audiences delight, Cena sucker-punched everyone with a huge dose of reality 30 seconds later.
After laying down the challenge, he said: "That is WrestleMania... and that match is not happening.

"I don't make the matches. And as obvious as this seems I have been told that match is not happening, because once again, that match is impossible."
Cena, a free agent in WWE, then revealed that he would be showing up on tonight's episode of SmackDown in order to try and earn a spot on the card at Mania with the blue brand.
LATEST WWE NEWS
But as ever in WWE, things may not always be as they seem... and the words "Undertaker" and "WrestleMania" being mentioned in the same sentence should not be taken lightly.
Legend Taker hinted at a sensational comeback when he returned to WWE TV at last month's Raw 25th anniversary show.
The 52-year-old said that night: "The carnage began on this sacred ground of evil 25 years ago.
"For 25 years I've been digging holes in any person who dared step foot in the dark side. Got buried.
"For 25 years I have taken legends and ripped them off their pedestal and thrown them in the cold earth.
"Stone Cold answered to the reaper, Mick Foley answered to the reaper, even my own flesh and blood Kane had to answer to the reaper. They all tried, they all failed.
"Now, on this sacred ground, I declare for all of those who have fallen it is truly time you rest in peace."
The Undertaker was thought to have retired after his match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 33.
The pair put on an incredible main event, before the Deadman put down his hat, cloak and gloves in the ring.
But fans are hoping to hear the menacing dong of his music once again in the showdown to end all showdowns... Taker versus Cena!
The iconic duo have never faced each other in a high-profile one-on-one contest and last appeared in the ring together at a non-televised event house show back in February 2010.
