Here’s What WWE Has Planned For The Undertaker at SmackDown 1000

With Crown Jewel getting closer by the day, the WWE Universe is anxiously waiting for the event to see Shawn Michaels return to the ring. In the meantime, this week will see the 1000th episode of SmackDown on Tuesday night. Many WWE legends and stars are scheduled to make appearances, including some important plans for The Undertaker.

Unlike more legends and former stars who are returning for a good time, The Deadman has pressing business with The Heartbreak Kid and Triple H. According to a report from RingSideNews, WWE is planning a major confrontation during the show between Triple H and The Deadman that will continue to promote the upcoming match in Saudi Arabia.

There’s no word on Kane or Shawn Michaels appearing on SmackDown. Neither man is particularly affiliated with the brand. However, The Undertaker’s history with the blue brand is extensive. WWE officials are expected to give him some time with the fans to show appreciation for SmackDown’s historic night, but the purpose is to confront HHH.

With the rumors surrounding Crown Jewel, it’s unclear if the event is still happening. If the event is canceled, the renewed conflict between The Brothers of Destruction and DX isn’t something that can just be written off. Whatever happens between The Undertaker and The Game at SmackDown 1000, the segment will add something new to the rivalry.

On paper, the confrontation could turn into a brawl considering how personal the feud has become since Australia. WWE officials are also trying to make the event in Saudi Arabia work. A temporary distraction sounds like a good idea so the WWE Universe can expect some fireworks from The Game and The Undertaker during SmackDown 1000.

Are you on siding with The Brothers of Destruction or DX?
