VIP packages, including a meet-and-greet with a WWE Legend, will be available for fans at Manhattan Center.

Lost in the shuffle is Shawn Michaels, one of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time along with Kevin Nash. However, the return of the Undertaker will be the cause for beautiful speculation.

All summer long, Taker has been attached to a multitude of rumors regarding his in-ring return. while nothing has manifested, his upcoming January appearance will come with the expectation of him being used in a storyline.

What that will look like, is anyone’s guess, but we’ll all be anxious to tune and see what happens next.
