The Undertaker described how he found McCool different from everyone. The WWE icon claimed he was attracted to his wife's desire to be better and her work ethic:
“I was attracted to her desire to be better and her work ethic. It was not the blue eyes, blonde hair, kicking body. I never seen a girl throw a football like that.” (H/T: Essentially Sports)
McCool herself had previously joked about how her husband fell in love with her because she knew how to throw a football:
“He really fell in love with me because I knew how to throw a football.”
In his documentary, The Undertaker detailed even more about how he fell in love with his third wife.
The former WWE World Champion said it was a TV day and he had a little football. The Undertaker was throwing it around with others, and McCool happened to walk out, pick the ball up, and throw it about 35-yards away.
“It was a TV day and I had a little football. So we were throwing the football in the arena. She just happens to walk out, picks it up, and throws about a 35-yard spiral, just scorched it. I kid you not. I had never seen a girl throw football like that.”
