With The Undertaker scheduled to return to WWE television on the Monday, February 21st episode of WWE RAW (the night after Elimination Chamber), we’ve got an update on his health and what’s being discussed for him for WrestleMania.
The planned Undertaker vs. Wade Barrett WrestleMania main event has been reportedly scrapped. This feud made sense as Wade Barrett was the leader of Nexus when the group destroyed the Undertaker and put him out of action at Survivor Series, but WWE now has a totally different direction for the Dead Man.
According to a very reliable WWE source, the current plan is for The Undertaker to wrestle Triple H, with Shawn Michaels serving as the special guest referee. The match would have a stipulation of Career vs. Streak, with Triple H being forced to retire if he cannot defeat the Dead Man.
The Undertaker has been doing a lot of rehab on his surgically repaired shoulder and WWE is very confident he’ll be on track to compete at WrestleMania. While nobody is expecting a WrestleMania classic as in previous years, he should be able to work a good singles match.

um this year The Undertaker is going to force HHH to retire and I think that is a smart move so that this can get the younger talent more ring time and mic time.

IF they go along with this plan, things could get interesting if creative will put some thought into the planned storyline for their feud.
I've thought of an idea (too bad WWE wouldn't do something like this though) but I've read as well WWE wants HBK to "steal the show." We all know HBK is known as "Mr. Wrestlemania."
If they want to continue to have Taker vs Trips and Shawn as ref, then how about this? Trips wants Taker, he can't get over the fact Taker has "retired his best friend." Trips tells this to Shawn, and he wants so bad to be the one to end the streak for good.
Shawn (at some point) lets Trips know he's got something he's thought up to help Trips out with winning, but tells him he won't say anything or reveal anything about it until the ppv itself. Taker at some point gets wind of Trip's and Shawn's conversations, and hears about a plan brewing, but no matter what he does, Shawn won't tell him, and Trips has no idea (LOL but Taker doesn't believe him due to Shawn and Trips being close friends like bros). So, we get back and forth "attacks and beatdowns" etc etc.
Since the plan isn't being revealed or talked about, there's a certain "false sense of security" from both Trips and Taker. WM comes around, and now it's time for their match. Shawn isn't doing anything different than any other ref wouldn't do in a match, and just when it looks like Taker is getting somewhat of the upper hand and looks like he'll reach 19-0 BAM. Out of nowhere, and to BOTH Trips and Taker's surprise, Shawn reveals whatever plan he had.
This is where creative can come up with something shocking, and unexpected so even the fans believe that when Shawn does what he does, there is no way this time that Taker is going to reach 19-0. Of course, eventually he does, but at such a close call it looked like at first Taker was going to suffer his first WM defeat. What do y'all think of my idea? Good? Bad? or Meh....

If this match happens I still see Taker some way some how winning this match and going to 19-0 at WM.
