3. The Undertaker Is A Black Belt Martial Artist

The Undertaker’s love of mixed martial arts is very well known. From his “Hell’s Gate” (gogoplata) submission to attending numerous UFC cards, he’s an avowed MMA fanatic. However, after only training for 19 months with Rolles Gracie in 2011, Calaway was awarded a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

Of course, Rolles Gracie has a checkered past in mixed martial arts, as in February 2010 (while he was training The Undertaker, intriguingly) Gracie fought Joey Beltran at UFC 109 and his loss was described by Renzo Gracie as “embarrassing.”

However, not-so embarassing has been Undertaker’s use of mixed martial arts to freshen up his career at the end of his frequently in-ring WWE run.
