The Undertaker is an American professional wrestler signed to WWE. He is the company's most tenured performer, and he's also the only remaining active competitor from the very first episode of WWE Raw in 1993. Calaway began his wrestling career with World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW) in 1984. In 1990, Calaway signed with the World Wrestling Federation and The Undertaker was born. The rest, as they say, was history!
Mark Calaway will don his gear for WWE Survivor Series Sunday in Atlanta. As he makes the most famous ring entrance in sports entertainment, it will be impossible to forget The Undertaker made his debut at this pay-per-view extravaganza 25 years ago.
The 50-year-old will do what has him a lock for every Hall of Fame the genre offers. He will team with his TV half-brother Kane against two members of the Wyatt Family. Calaway will be better than many of the younger athletes on the show. He thrives in a business where it takes all of your heart and soul to survive.
I referred to The Undertaker persona as the “Conscience of WWE,” which had a double meaning, one based in fact and one based in fiction. The fact was that Mark Calaway was the locker-room leader in WWE and has assumed that role for a quarter-century. That feat will likely never be duplicated, because we can’t be sure the next generation of talents, or people in general, will be trusting and put aspects of major decisions in the hands of well-meaning veterans.
