WWE fans think they've worked out who was under the ring at WrestleMania as hand spotted

WWE fans think they have worked out who was under the ring during the main event of WrestleMania 40.

Cody Rhodes finally knocked off Roman Reigns to become undisputed WWE champion at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.

The American Nightmare finished his story in a chaotic finale, putting Reigns away after delivering his Cross-Rhodes finisher three times.

The pinfall followed a chaotic sequence which saw interference from the likes of Jimmy and Jey Uso, Solo Sikoa, John Cena, The Rock, Seth Rollins and The Undertaker.

Rhodes now holds the title that his late father, the American Dream Dusty Rhodes, never won.

But fans think one of the surprises was already spoiled beforehand.

The Undertaker, one of the greatest of all time, appeared and chokeslammed The Rock after he tried to screw over Rhodes.

The Phenom's trademark 'bong' hit and after the lights went out, he stood behind his former rival before sending him crashing to the canvas.

Typically, 'Taker' would hide under the ring before entering in the brief period of darkness.

And fans think they spotted his hand under the ring when Rhodes went to grab a table earlier on in the match.

One wrote: "Taker under there the entire match like."

A second said: "Knowing this was taker is taking me out."

A third added: "Undertaker was just chilling LMAOOOO."

Another commented: "Well after watching mania 40 we can now be assured that it was the undertaker."

A final user stated: "Taker nearly gave himself away."

Cena and Taker helped even the odds by taking out members of the Bloodline, with it always being an assembling of the WWE 'Avengers'.

It was arguably the greatest five minutes in WrestleMania main event but there was one complaint from fans.

Some expressed disappointment that Stone Cold Steve Austin did not show up to raise some hell.

Rumours had been swirling and plenty felt as though his planned spot went to the Undertaker.
