Undertaker .vs. Michaels Is 28/1 To Main Event Mania 35

The Undertaker .vs. Shawn Michaels is 28/1 to be the main event of WrestleMania 35.

The selection has been added to a market that's available from the Sky Bet website where customers can place wagers on what they believe will be the final match of WWE's big event next April.

On this week's episode of WWE Raw, The Undertaker interrupted a promo by Shawn Michaels. The latter was hyping the upcoming Taker versus HHH match that will take place at Super Show-Down in early October. The segment did seem to hint that Michaels could potentially come out of retirement to take on The Undertaker once again.

In this week's issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, which came out earlier today, Dave Meltzer noted that there is speculation that Michaels will return to the ring in November for WWE's next visit to Saudi Arabia. However, the match is - as of the time of writing - not expected to be in a singles.

Meltzer did suggest the possibility of Michaels' return taking place at WrestleMania, but he mentioned that Michaels was one of the names that WWE - and the Saudi Prince - wanted for the Greatest Royal Rumble in April.

Plus, the Saudi shows are more lucrative for WWE than a WrestleMania.

If The Heartbreak Kid returns and it is against The Undertaker at WrestleMania 35, I would be surprised if it closes the show.

Both wrestlers are part-timers (if HBK returns, that is) and I believe WWE should have at least one regular star in the main event slot of Mania as they'll be the ones working the next night and beyond.

Charlotte Flair versus Ronda Rousey is still favourite to go last. It's currently 6/4. Next up is Roman Reigns versus The Rock at 6/1.
