It's a skill that some of the industry's biggest stars - including Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior - have reportedly been incapable of cultivating.For all of his accomplishments and unrivaled stature in sports entertainment, Mark Calaway is a man without ego who doesn't believe any one superstar is bigger than WrestleMania itself.“Undertaker is one of the most consummate professionals inside and outside the ring,” says famed grappler and WWE Hall of Famer Bret "The Hitman" Hart.Hart’s sentiments have been echoed by Calaway’s peers throughout his career.
