History Pantheon / ProfessionalWrestling

In the Pantheon/TropePantheons, the following professional wrestlers were chosen, grouped according to the promotion where they are best known from. Usually this will be the promotion where the wrestler first rose to great prominence in; however, if they underwent a significant overhaul within a larger promotion and then became much greater stars there, that promotion will supercede the original choice. In addition to the Pantheon itself, all these wrestlers can be found competing within the halls of the Pantheon/PantheonWrestlingFederation, along with even more of their peers.\\

%% The Undertaker -- His real name of Mark Calaway has been acknowledged as part of WWF/E canon during both the Ministry of Darkness run and his feud with AJ Styles. With the Styles feud also establishing The Unholy Trinity, Taker's new state of being balancing his real-life biker and supernatural psychopomp personas, Mark Calway has been undeniably woven into the identity of The Undertaker.

He, along with his kayfabe brother and good friend Ed Leslie, would both transition their character surnames from Boulder to Hogan, with Hulk's meteoric rise to fame causing the latter to stick as his character's true surname. Though Leslie would later diverge into an entirely different character as Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake, Hulk's real life nephew Horace later wrestled under both the Boulder and Hogan surnames, and the use of Hogan in wrestling and public life would extend to his wives and children.
