Mark William Calaway, professionally known as "The Undertaker", was born on March 24, 1965, making him a significant figure in the world of professional wrestling. His remarkable career in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) began in 1990, when he emerged as Ted DiBiase's mystery partner at The Survivor Series, marking the start of an illustrious journey.
Initially, Calaway portrayed the role of a heel, but his character underwent a significant transformation around WrestleMania VIII in 1992, when he turned face, forever changing the trajectory of his career. Throughout his tenure in the WWE, Calaway has held the WWF World Title an impressive four times.
His first WWF World Title reign commenced at the Survivor Series in 1991, where he defeated the then-champion, Hulk Hogan, in a match dubbed "Hulk Hogan's Gravest Challenge". Although Hogan reclaimed the title shortly after, it was later stripped from him due to the circumstances surrounding his victory.
Calaway's second WWF World Title reign was won at WrestleMania 13 in 1997, when he defeated Sycho Sid, solidifying his status as a formidable force in the WWE. His third WWF Title reign came at WWF Over the Edge in 1999, as he emerged victorious against Stone Cold Steve Austin.
In a remarkable full-circle moment, Calaway won his fourth and final WWE title reign at WWE Judgment Day in 2002, defeating none other than Hulk Hogan once again. Throughout his illustrious career, "The Undertaker" has left an indelible mark on the world of professional wrestling, cementing his legacy as one of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time.
