The Undertaker Made A Fan’s Wish Come True At A Special WWE Event

Tonight, WWE celebrates 25 years of Monday Night Raw with a massive Raw 25 supershow, simultaneously running from the Barclays Center as well as the Manhattan Center in New York City. It’s so massive, in fact, they’re even going to have an hour-long kickoff show on WWE Network and YouTube starting at 7 p.m. ET.

We know Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler will be on commentary, and we know the list of special appearances is currently a mile long and includes Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair and countless others. We even know what the Raw 25 opening video package is going to look like, as WWE shared it early. We’re even supposed to see the Undertaker on WWE TV for the first time since his WrestleMania 33 loss to Roman Reigns.

While we don’t know what Taker will be doing tonight, we do know he is, in fact, alive and well, as he made a surprise appearance at WWE’s Make-A-Wish event at the Times Square Hard Rock Cafe earlier today, granting the wish of two young fans who wanted to meet him:

Taker wasn’t alone; other WWE Superstars granting wishes today included John Cena, Roman Reigns and Sasha Banks, all of whom were — let’s be honest here — far, far better dressed than the Dead Man:

Honestly, though, Taker’s wardrobe choice is what’s most interesting here: We saw him retire his classic “dead man” outfit at Mania last year, but is there a chance he’s coming back as the American Badass tonight — and for his rumored WrestleMania 34 match? That giant bandana around his forehead says “maybe.”
