THE UNDERTAKER got emotional while talking about his wife Michelle McCool and the spiritual pilgrimage he embarked on thanks to their relationship.

Undertaker is one of WWE’s greatest ever legends as he revolutionised the business thanks to his dark, sinister and supernatural character that saw him competing in a series of brutal matches.

Taker stands out from other wrestling greats because he never broke character in the past and avoided making public appearances to protect his gimmick.

The Deadman, though, has been taking it a little easy recently as he has been participating in wrestling conventions and is also active on social media.

But The Phenom has never before broken character the way he did during a rare interview with pastor Ed Young.

The seven-time world champion choked up while talking about his wife and four-time women’s champion McCool as well as his faith in God.

The ex-WWE Champion broke down in a way no WWE fan ever expected him to as he outlined the excessive lifestyle he led before meeting the inaugural Divas Champion and going back to God.

Undertaker said: “I’ve always knew and believed in God.

“I just didn’t lead my life that way.

“I’ve never put a lot into being a celebrity, that just flies over my head because that’s not really who I am.

“But as you can imagine, you get exposed to a lot of different things because of what you do and I lived a pretty excessive lifestyle.

“I believe in God, but I wasn’t living my life for God.

“And, somehow or another, I met… I’m getting a little chocked up, she’s awesome.”

Just when the wrestling legend was ready to cry a fan extended his supported as he shouted that he loves him.

Undertaker returned the favour and jokingly thanked the member of the audience for helping him save his character.

The former World Heavyweight Champion added: “I love you too.

“Thank you, I needed that. I needed that save there.

“I was about to lose my whole character.”
