According to several backstage sources, there was a lot (and we mean a whole lot) of talk behind the scenes this week in WWE about whether or not HHH, Shawn Michaels, and The Undertaker should appear on the go-home RAW tonight. According to a key WWE insider, Vince McMahon’s feeling, which was echoed by HHH, was that the storyline was set perfectly last week, and even if the story peaked a week too early, the soap opera is perfect for WrestleMania and anything this week would water it down.
Vince also felt anything that HHH and Undertaker would do this week would take away from the feeling of how special their appearances are, and while the CM Punk vs Chris Jericho and Cena vs Rock matches were spotlighted on Raw, that the HHH vs Undertaker match is “ready to go” and, as several producers were told at Raw, “this will be a match for the ages.”
While the entire WrestleMania show has only been tentatively timed out, Vince McMahon is said to be very happy with the event. For those wondering, HHH vs Undertaker is not the last match of the night. As most would assume, Rock vs Cena will be the final match of the evening according to the most recent version of the script.
