The Phenom known to fans around the world as The Undertaker is one of WWE's longest-tenured, and most loyal, employees.

Mark Calloway bounced around the indie scene under a variety of gimmicks. He was known as the masked Texas Red, the Punisher, and finally settled on Mean Mark Callous. It was while working as the Mean Mark character that he was signed to WCW, ironically managed by Paul Heyman.

Then Calloway signed with WWE. Famously, when Vince McMahon called Calloway's home to offer him a job, the first thing the Boss said was "Is this the Undertaker?"

Calloway's response? "Hell yeah, I'm the Undertaker."

Thus a legend was born. The Undertaker embarked upon one of the greatest winning streaks in wrestling history, being undefeated at Wrestlemania. When the streak got up into the double digits, it became a yearly storyline for WWE. Who would break the streak? CM Punk, HBK, and Randy Orton all tried and failed to beat the deadman on the grandest stage of them all.

Then Brock Lesnar stepped up to the plate. While Taker's streak seemed more in jeopardy than ever, fans were still convinced that the Undertaker would retire without ever tasting defeat at Wrestlemania.

Of course, history tells it differently. Brock Lesnar defeated the Undertaker, shocking everyone, even his own advocate Paul Heyman.
