WWE fans know The Undertaker for never breaking his character during his career. Even though he has performed in a variety of situations, including the day of his divorce, he maintains his character both inside and outside the ring. Taker did, however, break character once in a rare circumstance—at the funeral of a renowned WWE superstar.

It takes years of preparation, and intensive training to complete a match in professional wrestling without getting hurt. However, despite being well-trained athletes, many extraordinary talents unexpectedly lost their lives after suffering severe injuries.

Unfortunately, WWE legend Owen Hart, who ascended from the big wrestling lineage on May 23rd, 1999, lost his life. For those who are new WWE fans to give context, Hart tragically fell to his death in front of a packed crowd. Leaving one of the most devastating stains on the annals of professional wrestling.
