Undertaker is a pro-wrestling legend who is immortalized in history books. The Phenom has had an incredibly successful wrestling career, and he prefers to keep his private life under wraps. The name Jodi Lynn might be unremarkable at first, but when you add the former wife of Undertaker after that name, it will catch anyone’s attention.

Mark Calaway has been married thrice, and his very first marriage was to Jodi Lynn. She’s the least-known of his three wives and prefers to remain private.

They first met in the 80s when and eventually married in 1989. Undertake was just 24 at the time, and WWE hadn’t signed him yet. Jodi is one of the very few people who saw Mark Calaway go from ‘Mean’ Mark Callous to The Phenom first hand.

Throughout their marriage, they kept their relationship private. The couple had a son together, Gunner Vincent Calaway, and the Vincent was a tribute to Vince McMahon. He is the first child of Undertaker.

In an interview with Chandler Sorrells of The Ring, The Cage, and The Stage [H/T Wrestling Inc], Gunner revealed that he has no intentions of following in his father’s footsteps and prefers a career as a video game artist.

“As you get older, you get into your teenage years and kind of want to be independent and find your own interests. So, in my young adult life, I steered away from [wrestling] and tuned in when it was necessary.”

In 1999, Jodi Lynn and Mark divorced one another, ending their 10-year-old marriage.

The Real Reason Why The Undertaker Is Called The Deadman

The Undertaker is happily married now.

A year later, Taker got married to his on-screen valet, Sarah Calaway, in 2000. Sara met The Undertaker during a “Mark Session” at WWF in 1999. She made many appearances in WWF in 2001 and 2002 as well.

The two hit it off because of their similar interests in football and boxing. This is what Undertaker said in an interview with Online World of Wrestling.

“I don’t want to say Sara’s unladylike, but her interests are very male-oriented. It’s like having a buddy and a wife. Football, anything physical like that, we sit and watch together. And she’s knowledgeable about all of it, you don’t have to sit there and explain things to her.”

After his second marriage ended in 2007, The Undertaker started dating WWE’s former Divas Champion, Michelle McCool. They married each other in 2010.
