Greatest Returns In WWE WrestleMania History, Thus Far

The Undertaker (WrestleMania 40)

Cody Rhodes finishing his story was the driving point behind WrestleMania 40’s Night Two main event. It was the story that had dominated WWE programming for over a year, and it looked as if the story would finally be closed. It was a great match, but one that had the deck stacked against Rhodes, what with Roman Reigns having the Bloodline to do his bidding.

Other stars like John Cena and Seth Rollins tried to even the odds, but the hill appeared too steep for anyone to climb, until a huge return tipped the scales in Cody Rhodes’ favor.

The lights went out, the gong hit, and when the lights came back on, the crowd erupted as The Undertaker stood behind The Final Boss. The Deadman shocked the wrestling world by coming back to help Cody Rhodes finish his story. His appearance was a complete shock, and one that put the perfect exclamation point on a great WrestleMania main event.
