5 rare out-of-character interviews with The Undertaker (with videos)

#3 He might manage MMA fighters one day

In a backstage interview after UFC 121 in October 2010, Mark Calaway gave his thoughts on Brock Lesnar’s defeat to Cain Velasquez at the event and discussed his own potential plans for MMA one day.

Calaway, 45 years of age at the time, told FIGHT! Magazine that while time had passed him by with regards to trying out MMA competitively, he might try to manage some fighters when his WWE days are over.

The first part of the interview centres around what happened at UFC 121, but you can skip ahead to 03:20 to hear what he had to say about potentially getting involved in MMA.

Calaway’s appearance that night is probably remembered best for him asking “you wanna go?” to Lesnar as he walked by following his loss, which led to months of speculation that Lesnar would return to WWE. Of course, he did, and three-and-a-half years later he broke The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania.
