WWE rumors 2016: The Undertaker not taking part in this year's draft?
Bad news for fans waiting to see which brand The Undertaker will be a part of when the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) draft takes place on Tuesday. It is believed that the veteran is not on the list of wrestlers participating in the selection process.

On July 19, Tuesday, "SmackDown" will go live for the first time and the much-anticipated draft is going to take place.
This determines who the WWE superstars completing the rosters of "Monday Night Raw" and "SmackDown" will be. The draft is also the beginning of the brand split which was announced a few weeks back.
The future of superstars like John Cena, world heavyweight champion Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, tag team champions The New Day, A.J. Styles, Sasha Banks, and many more will be known on Tuesday night.
However, one superstar is rumored to not be included in this year's draft and that is the Undertaker. But despite this, "The Phenom" is not yet hanging the boots. He is likely to continue wrestling in big events but will not be a part of any roster.
The last time the Undertaker competed in the WWE was at "Wrestlemania 32" when he took on Shane McMahon in a Hell in a Cell match. "The Deadman," as expected, won the contest which ran low on physicality, with McMahon falling from the top of the cage to an announcers' table being the only true highlight of the match.
It is unknown what the WWE plans for the Undertaker now with the brand split happening. Perhaps another "Wrestlemania" main event is in the books for him.
But in the past, the Undertaker became the face of "SmackDown" and was one of the superstars who helped establish the brand. A surprise appearance might happen later or in the near future.
