Fantasy Booking The Undertaker's Return At Battleground

'I don't know that Undertaker will be on the show Sunday but it wouldn't surprise me.

I do know he is in a SummerSlam television commercial.'

- Dave Meltzer on the Figure 4 Weekly/Wrestling Observer Message Board

With that one comment, I'm leaning more on there being an appearance by The Undertaker on this Sunday's event. However, like I mentioned in the posts I published yesterday, it's still difficult to determine how he will be used without playing the role of fantasy booker.

From a betting perspective, the main event is a hard call to make. It could turn out to be one of those things where his return doesn't impact the result. He could very well come out post-match.

I know there is some sort of a clamouring for another Brock Lesnar versus Undertaker match as a way for Taker to avenge his WrestleMania streak loss last year. If I were to put on my fantasy booker's hat on for a moment, here's how I would like it to go down on Sunday is like this:

Seth Rollins and The Shield reform during the match. They end up beating down Brock Lesnar and the match ends with Rollins going over. They continue to attack Lesnar until The Undertaker's gong rings and he arrives to help Lesnar.

This will set up The Shield .vs. Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker in a 3-on-2 at SummerSlam.

I know Lesnar and The Undertaker being together is an odd pairing considering their most recent rivalry. It does do a few things. Firstly, it keeps 'The Beast' a babyface. It also allows The Undertaker to avenge the beating he took at the hands of The Shield two years ago. 

I believe when Undertaker was attacked by The Shield on a Smackdown in London, the plan was for him to take them on at SummerSlam 2013. This evidently didn't happen and nothing has been brought up about The Shield's attack of The Undertaker until.. well, right now.

Trust me when I state that you don't need to tell me this won't happen.

I guess we'll have to wait until Sunday to see if or how this plays out.
