#1. WWE legend The Undertaker's son: Gunner Calaway

The Undertaker is arguably the greatest superstar in WWE history. However, his son, Gunner Calaway, has no interest in walking in his father's footsteps.

Gunner is The Deadman's oldest son from his first wife, Jodi Lynn. In an interview with The Ring, The Cage, and The Stage in 2018, the WWE legend's son disclosed that he thought about getting into wrestling when he was a child. Nevertheless, as he grew older, he wanted to be independent and find his own interests.

"I'd say as a kid, definitely. You see it so much and you're just think like, 'Wow, how cool would that be?' In my eyes, it was like being a superhero. 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," he said.

Instead of pursuing a wrestling career, Calaway went to Full Sail University, from which he graduated as a Video Game Artist.

"That's kind of the path I'm setting before myself. I'd like to, in the next five to ten years, be an artist for a team in a production company for video games. Something I could put my 3D skills to good use and eventually own my own indie company," he added.

Calaway now describes himself on Instagram as a Freelance Artist, Illustrator, and Streamer. He frequently posts samples of his artwork on his account.
