When Ryback's impressive undefeated streak was still intact late last year, it was heavily rumored that he was a potential candidate to face The Undertaker at WrestleMania 29. Of course, that match never ultimately came to fruition, but it doesn't mean it's never going to happen.
For the first time in nearly three years, Undertaker competed on both Raw and SmackDown a few weeks back before being attacked by The Shield and written out of WWE storylines for the time being. It's been reported that 'Taker might be back as soon as SummerSlam, which means he'll need a credible opponent to work with.
Whether Ryback will be WWE champion by that point in time remains to be seen, but there's no denying that a program with Undertaker could launch Ryback into a whole new stratosphere. Now that he's a vicious heel, there's more of a chance of the feud happening this time around than there was at WrestleMania 29.
Ryback wouldn't even need to defeat the Deadman to solidify himself as a main-event player, as simply being in the ring with him would be enough to make him look like a star.
Honestly, I don't see Ryback vs. Undertaker as a marquee match at a future 'Mania, but it would surely make for a blockbuster main event at any other pay-per-view.
