WWE legend The Undertaker showed “zero hesitation” after boxing icon Mike Tyson asked him who would be the “finest woman wrestler” he would date.
The Undertaker, real name Mark Calaway, spent three decades with the WWE before he called it time on a legendary professional career in 2020.
The 57-year-old American star is a big admirer of Tyson, who famously crossed over into the world of WWE during the company’s fan-favourite Attitude Era.

Speaking on Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, ‘Iron’ Mike didn’t hesitate in picking ‘Taker’s mind on who is the “finest woman wrestler” he crossed paths with in his career.
A cool, calm Undertaker immediately responded to the boxing legend with Michelle McCool, who the ‘Deadman’ married back in 2010.
The WWE Hall of Famer then went on to share more details about McCool with Tyson before hilariously bigging himself up for his initial response to the former boxer.

Undertaker took a fist bump before highlighting the “zero hesitation” in his answer to the ‘Baddest Man on the Planet.’
Posted below is how the full exchange between The Undertaker and Tyson went in the clip (which can be viewed above in the video player).
Tyson: “Who’s the finest woman wrestler you’d date?”

Undertaker: “My wife.”
Tyson: “She wrestle?”
Undertaker: “Yeah.”
Tyson: “Where at?”

Undertaker: “She wrestles for WWE.”
Tyson: “Really? What’s her name?”
Undertaker: “Michelle McCool.”
Tyson: “Okay, cool. What about…”

Undertaker: “See how I did that? There was zero hesitation in that answer.”
Undertaker was previously married to Jodi Lynn and Sara Frank before divorcing from the pair in 1999 and 2007 respectively.
McCool, who is a former two-time WWE women’s champ and two-time Divas champ, has admitted she initially didn’t want to meet The Undertaker and WWE legend Kane.
“I grew up watching [WWE] and [The Undertaker] is not the most inviting person when you’re watching as a fan,” she told Digital Spy in 2020.
“He was telling someone the other day, ‘She doesn’t like long hair, she doesn’t like tattoos, she says I don’t look all warm and fuzzy.’ I’m like, ‘You don’t,’”“So I grew up watching it and I did not want to meet him. I didn’t want to meet Kane and obviously I married Mark and Kane is just the nicest guy you’ll ever meet.
“But it was just the whole character and he protected it, he lived it and I knew out of respect I had to say hi, but I had no interest in meeting him at all.”
