It’s Not The Obvious Reason. Rumor Killer On Undertaker’s Return To Madison Square Garden.

It’s not what you might have thought. Back in the old days of wrestling, every promotion had what was considered its home arena. Wherever else they would put on shows, it was that one arena that meant the most to them and their fans. Those days are mostly gone, but WWE still has its home of Madison Square Garden. WWE is heading back there in September and a legend is going to be on the show, but not for the reason you expect.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Undertaker is going to be appearing at the upcoming September 14 SmackDown Live in Madison Square Garden, but it is not due to issues of low ticket sales. Undertaker’s appearance on the card has been set up for a long time now and would have happened whether the ticket sales continued to be low or not. His most recent match took place at Extreme Rules on July 14.

Undertaker has a history in the Garden. Check out his appearance there last year:

Opinion: I don’t know if Undertaker is going to be there for the same of boosting bad ticket sales but I can’t imagine WWE is going to be complaining about the extra tickets he helps move. Undertaker is one of the few true legends in modern wrestling and fans understand that he is not likely to be around much longer so getting to see him while they can is a priority.

What do you want to see Undertaker do? When will he eventually retire? Let us know in the comments below.
