There has been some concern regarding the Undertaker’s health since his latest return to the company and that concern could play a factor in the outcome of his match tonight against Bastista. Not only has Vince McMahon been against short title reigns, Undertaker has not been performing up to his high expectations. However, the original plan before he was injured was to have Undertaker reign as World Heavyweight Champion going into next year’s WrestleMania 24 pay-per-view.

The late Curt Hennig’s son, Joe Hennig, worked a dark match at this past Tuesday’s SmackDown tapings with tag team partner Steve Fender. The duo faced SmackDown’s Jesse & Festus. Joe wore a version of his father’s trademark singlet.
