5 little-known facts about The Undertaker
The Undertaker is one of the biggest legends in WWE history, having debuted in the company back at Survivor Series in 1990 and has remained a main event level star since.
Undertaker has reached a status level that has never been seen before in WWE. However, even though he is one of the best-known wrestlers in the world, he has managed to keep much of his personal life private.
The Deadman was a star in a time before Social Media, which could be why he was able to keep much of his life private- but, times have definitely changed since then.
Taker doesn't wrestle as much as he once did since he's now 55-years-old and is looking to wind his career down. His appearance this past week on SmackDown Live where he chokeslammed Sami Zayn, however, proves that he is just as popular as he was when he debuted.
These are some interesting facts about the former World Champion that have remained buried for many years and now deserve to reach the surface.
#5. He's scared of cucumbers
He may be one of the most intimidating wrestlers in WWE history, but it appears that The Deadman has some fears of his own since it has been confirmed that he is terrified of cucumbers.
Paul Bearer himself, who once managed The Undertaker prior to Bearer's death back in 2013, confirmed that The Deadman was afraid of the vegetable, saying: “He cannot stand cucumbers … I saw The Undertaker throw up all over a waffle house because there was a cucumber floating in his iced tea." He also confirmed that because of this fear, he used to prank Undertaker all the time by putting cucumber in his hat and gloves.
It is unknown as to why The Deadman is so afraid of cucumbers, but Bearer did reveal that it was something to do with his childhood.
“It was something to do with when he was a kid … I guess his mother made him eat them when he didn’t want them, or something. He just hates cucumbers.”
