The deadman may not be a full time superstar. He’s not even a part- time superstar, at this point. He makes that one appearance at Wrestlemania and then he’s gone. But at this point in his career, such a one- off appearance has its own charm and importance.

It’s fascinating how such a character, which is fictional to the basic sense of the word, is able to thrive in this time and age. There is also not much secrecy when it comes to Undertaker’s personal life and interests, inspite of that The Deadman will live forever.

Undertaker is a keen observer of boxing and mixed martial arts.

The first thing that comes to mind may be the fact that Undertaker and Brock Lesnar had a face off at a UFC show where Lesnar had just had a match.

Daniel Bryan (Animal lover/Conservation)l

Daniel Bryan’s hobby, unlike others, lies in closer proximity to wrestling than most in this list. According to WWE.com.grappling is his favorite hobby

Daniel Bryan and his hold on knowing so many submission moves is no mean feat. All of this is credited to him training as a grappler for a number of years. That’s how he learnt his finishing move which is the ‘Yes’ Lock.

But Bryan is also an animal lover, that might explain the vegan diet that he prefers. He was also once voted as the’Most Animal Friendly Athlete’

Apart from that he admitted on the Art of Wrestling podcast that his childhood hobby was clam digging.

Kofi Kingston (Comic-book collection)

Speaking about comic books, Kofi Kingston’s hobby is interesting in itself. He collects comic books but not the classic,mainstream ones as one would expect. WWE.com states the following about his hobby, “While Kingston’s collection does include some classic material — he cites a three-installment “Venom” miniseries as the jumping-off point for his hoard — he tends to veer away from the “mainstream” hero stories in favor of edgier fare such as “Y: The Last Man.” “

Another interesting thing is that he bought a Turkish version of Marvel’s “Civil Wars” series when he was at a Turkish airposrt.

This hobby may be one of the many reasons why he and CM Punk are good friends.

Stardust (Comic books/Video-games)

You may know him as Stardust or you may just call him Cody Rhodes. While he is on screen making bizarre out of the world exclamations and giving us a glimpse into his world that does not seem anything like Earth, you would be better off knowing how big a fan Rhodes is of comics and video games. That may just be the answer to the why he makes such vivid descriptions during his promos.

The comics and video games are what feul his imagination which remains the best part about his very underutilized character.
