WWE News: The Undertaker Scheduled For Smackdown Live Nov. 15 Episode 900
The Undertaker is returning to WWE for at least one night only. His return will take place on Smackdown Live on Tuesday, November 15, which is the 900th episode of Smackdown.
Here’s a tweet from the Mohegan Sun Arena in Wilkes Barre, PA announcing his return.

It’s not known if he will be a part of a current storyline, if he will have a role at Survivor Series or if it’s just a one off thing for the 900th episode. We will find out that night.
There’s no official word from WWE yet, but that should be coming soon.
TJR Thoughts: It’s always good to see the living legend, so I’m excited about it. He had hip surgery a few weeks ago, was photographed on crutches and people freaked out that he had trouble walking. Last week he showed up at a Cleveland Cavs game looking fine. Obviously his health is okay if he’s going to appear on TV in a few weeks.
Considering The Undertaker’s history on Smackdown, it makes sense for him to be on the 900th episode if WWE is going to make a big deal of it.
