Mark Calaway began his wrestling career with World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW) in 1984.

He signed for the WWE in 1990.

Did you know?

The Undertaker became the first man to win the Rumble at number 30.

Taker has also entered 11 Rumble and eliminated an overall total of 34 men.

The year Taker won the Rumble (2007) he beat Batista in the final of the WrestleMania 23 to once again win a World Title

In the WWE Taker has won:

He graduated from Waltrip High School in 1983, where he was a member of the basketball team.

Mark Calaway (Taker's real name) first married Jodi Lynn in 1989, and they had a son, Gunner, born in 1993, before the marriage ended in 1999.

Calaway married his second wife Sara in St. Petersburg, Florida on July 21, 2000. The couple had two daughters together Chasey (born on November 21, 2002) and Gracie (born on May 15, 2005).

As of 2007, he and Sara were divorced and he was Romantically linked to fellow wrestler Michelle McCool, whom he married on June 26, 2010 in Houston, Texas.

His current wife Michelle McCool is a 3 time champion within the WWE a 2 Womens Champion and a 1 time Diva's Champion.

Depite being billed from "Death Valley" Taker's birthplace is indeed Houston, Texas.

November 19, 1990 was Mark Calaway's Professional Wrestling debution.

Calaway appeared on a special WWF edition of "The Weakest Link" in March 2002 and his kayfabe brother Kane became the strongest link by defeating Bubba Ray Dudley in the final round. The money won was donated to Jacobs' chosen charity, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, in Memphis, Tennessee.

Kane and Undertaker altough fictional brother have a very heated past including many brilliant matches and awesome confrontations.

Undertaker has never lost a match at the prestigous WrestleMania event.

He has defeated 13 Former World Champions at the event Including Ric Flair, Triple H, Shawn Micheals and Edge!

Taker has been in the WWE now for exactly 20 years.

In the 20 years he has had plenty of nicknames and here are just some of them.

Undertaker's birth date is March 24, 1965.

Taker shares his birthday with actor Luke Edwards who starred in the hit film "Jeepers Creapers".

Did you know?

A video on youtube featuring Taker's enterance music has reached almost 3,400,000 hits!

Can you believe?

Undertaker was never voted nuber one in a PWI 500 countdown but considering Hogan made it twice and as did Cena that does take away a lot of prestige doesnt it?

Taker's highest PWI number was in 2002 when he was given the number 2 slot just behind current TNA star Rob van Dam and just before the very under-ratted Keiji Muto (Google his name please if you have not ever heard of him.)

Taker's current wife (Michelle McCool) was this year voted PWI's best Diva but that ranking also has lost a serious amount of respect considering Eve Toress was voted number one and Melina was'nt even in the ranks.

Bar Undertakers match against Shawn Micheals at WM25 his match vs Chris Benoit at Rebellion 2000 is my personal favourite.

The specialty matches connected to The Undertaker are the Casket match, the Buried Alive match, the notorious Hell in a Cell, and the Last Ride match.

Calaway invests in real estate with business partner Scott Everhart. Calaway and Everhart finished construction on a $2.7m building in Loveland, Colorado called "The Catahart," a portmanteau of their last names.

Calaway and his former wife Sara established The Zeus Compton Calaway Save the Animals fund at the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences to help pay for lifesaving treatments for large-breed dogs.

Taker is also the only wrestler to remain undefeated for more than 2 years.

Thanks for reading.

Due to Taker's amazing fan-base it was very hard to get some facts or trivia about Taker that other fan wouldnt have known so sorry if this article that not reach expectations.
