Fans haven’t seen The Undertaker since WrestleMania 33 where he was defeated by Roman Reigns in the main event. After the match was finished, Taker took off his hat and coat and left them in the ring which led to speculation that the The Deadman had retired.
Whether or not The Undertaker will ever wrestle again remains to be seen, but WWE has confirmed that he will be appearing on the 25th anniversary episode of Monday Night Raw which is set to air on Monday, January 22, 2018.
The 25th anniversary episode of Raw will take place from two different locations. Superstars from Raw and SmackDown Live will compete at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, while stars will also compete at the Manhattan Center, the site of the first ever Raw.
Tickets go on sale Friday, November 3.
WWE also confirmed that Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash will be making appearances with the following announcement:
“Superstars from both Monday Night Raw and SmackDown LIVE will be at Barclays Center, while the event at Manhattan Center, the site of the first episode of Raw, will feature both WWE Superstars competing, plus special appearances by WWE Legends The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash, among others. VIP packages, including a meet-and-greet with a WWE Legend, will be available for fans at Manhattan Center.”
The 25th anniversary episode of Raw is shaping up to be a big event, and it will also be the go-home show for the Royal Rumble pay-per-view which will take place from the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on January 28.
