WWE Super ShowDown is set to air live on the WWE Network tomorrow, and video footage of The Undertaker arriving in Saudi Arabia has been making the rounds on social media.
WWE has now confirmed that Taker is in Saudi Arabia ahead of Super ShowDown, and the company is hyping up a possible appearance from The Deadman at the event.

WWE posted the following announcement:
“Reports had been swirling in advance of WWE Super ShowDown that The Undertaker had been spotted in Saudi Arabia. Earlier today, WWE social media confirmed the presence of the legendary Superstar at the site of WWE Super ShowDown.
His apparent presence obviously lends itself to more questions than answers. Undertaker’s in-ring appearances are an increasing rarity, and he is not yet advertised for a match at tomorrow’s show. And yet, it would make a certain sense for him to appear, as The Phenom already has plenty of history in the Kingdom and, perhaps, some unfinished business as well.
Not only did Undertaker compete at a pair of 2018 events in Saudi Arabia — defeating Rusev in a Casket Match and falling to the reunited DX alongside Kane — he memorably battled Goldberg at last year’s WWE Super ShowDown event. Goldberg, of course, is scheduled to face “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt for the Universal Championship tomorrow. Depending on how things shake out, we could be headed from one rivalry straight to the other. It could be equally likely that The Deadman won’t be competing and will instead simply add his presence to the festivities. Tomorrow will bring the answers. Until then, we wait.”
