“Good God Almighty, Good God Almighty, they’ve killed him. By God is my witness, he is broken in half!’’ - Jim Ross, Mankind vs The Undetaker, WWF King of the Ring 1998 No matter how many times I watch that match, I always get a tingle shoot up my spine – an image of such destruction perfectly summed up by the raw emotion and panic in the commentary.

Well – here comes the pain! Last night on Raw, the rumours that had been circulating all week pre-Mania came true: former WWE and UFC Champion Brock Lesnar returned to World Wrestling Entertainment.

With just weeks to go until The Undertaker’s big Hell In A Cell showdown with Triple H at WrestleMania XVIII, we ask whether it’s time to finally put The Dead Man’s famous streak to rest… On 24th March 1965, Mark William Calaway came into this world. Since that day almost five decades ago, he has gone by many names: Mean Mark Callous, The Phenom, The Deadman, The American Badass … but for wrestling fans around the world, there is only one true name for this 6’10″ behemoth, and that is simply The Undertaker.
