Is The Undertaker Really Finished?

The beginning and the end. The two always connect.

The same is true with the career of Mark Calaway, who for the past 30 years has performed as The Undertaker.

As Calaway seeks the perfect closure to his career as The Undertaker, it is only fitting to look back at the beginning. And Calaway’s wrestling debut is still affixed to his present.

Taking place 33 years ago in Dallas at the hallowed Sportatorium, Calaway shared a World Class Championship Wrestling ring with the legendary Bruiser Brody.

“That was my first match for a real wrestling company,” said Calaway, reflecting back on that night from June 1987.
