Mark William Calaway (born March 24, 1965) is an American professional wrestler better known by his ring name The Undertaker. He is signed to WWE and is the company's most tenured competitor. Calaway began his wrestling career with World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW) in 1984. He joined World Championship Wrestling (WCW) as "Mean" Mark Callous in 1989. When WCW did not renew Calaway's contract in 1990, he signed with the World Wrestling Federation in October and, after shortening his name from Kane the Undertaker to simply The Undertaker, has remained with the company since.

For World Wrestling Entertainment-enthusiast GameCubers, the Day of Reckoning has come. Developed by Yuke s, a company known for its big-time wrestling games, WWE: Day of Reckoning features a more intense, personalized role-playing style design than its predecessors on the Nintendo console. Though all the big heroes and villains of the WWE are here, single players create their own wrestler character, and work him or her up the amateur ranks before earning a chance to face off against the prime time heroes of the sport. Additional elements borrowed from WWE games built for other platforms include livelier ambiance away from the ring, a more cinematic presentation, and the chance to conduct fan-favorite bra and panties matches between the league s women wrestlers.

Once again with WWE 12, THQ is starting from scratch.

Now it s rethinking how it provides a core single player experience. The Road to Wrestlemania idea that you ve known from years past is dead. Say hello to a new era.
