‘My protector’
The Undertaker stepped in to protect his wife from a shark after she spotted one swimming during a day at the beach.
The 58-year-old wrestling legend, whose real name is Mark Calaway, was on holiday with his wife and fellow pro-wrestler Michelle McCool-Calaway, when she spotted the shark in the crystal clear water.
Sharing the clip video on social media, Michelle praised her husband, writing: “I was simply enjoying a book on the beach when this ‘vegetation’ looked a lot like a shark….. so I text hubby @undertaker kinda digging that last picture …A LOT #myprotector”.
In the clip, the shark – thought to be a nurse shark – can be seen swimming around in the water while Calaway stands over, keeping a watchful eye over it.
Michelle explains: “OK, I text my husband because… this guy right here. I just knew it was a shark. Look how close we are.”
As Calaway stands in the water, the shark eventually decides this isn’t a battle he’s prepared to take on, and retreats away from the area.
Michelle says: “Yep. OK. Guess I wasn’t big enough to scare him away but you are.”
Many took to the comments to voice their admiration for Calaway’s bravery, and said the shark was wise not to take on the Undertaker.
One person wrote: “I think you forgot your husband is THE Undertaker lol. That shark wanted no smoke.”
Another said: “Transformed from Jaws to Nemo soon as he saw Taker in his line of vision.”
A third commented: “The shark didn’t want to go one on one with The Undertaker!”
Someone else wrote: “That shark didn’t want the smoke from your husband! Shark said ‘I wanna live today’.”
“It’s almost like the shark knew its fate and decided to swim off,” commented another fan.
A sixth person asked: “Is it illegal to tombstone a shark? Genuinely curious lol.”
