To which Taker replied: “My wife.”

Despite boxing icon Tyson’s vast knowledge of wrestling, he responded by asking if she wrestled and where at.

Undertaker informed him that “she wrestles for WWE” before revealing her name of Michelle McCool.

The 43-year-old, who recently made a comeback in the Royal Rumble in January, previously told Digital Spy in 2020: “I grew up watching [WWE] and [The Undertaker] is not the most inviting person when you’re watching as a fan.

“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.”
