Undertow can indeed handle this. Basically after the upgrade the reverse proxy just forwards data to the selected backend server, and forwards data back to the client (the proxy does not parse the websocket protocol, as it does not need to). The easiest way to see this in action is probably by combining our reverse proxy and websocket examples. If you run the testsuite with -Pproxy it will run all the tests (including websocket tests) through a reverse proxy.
