Yes, the Undertaker is also a household name Somewhat, not to the same degree as Hogan or Rock but many people would recognize the name Not by name, but if you described him as "the really scary zombie guy from wrestling," they would know who you're talking about No, outside of wrestling circles he isn't really that well known People like Hulk Hogan and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson end up becoming household names.

Calwings 09/15/20 9:58:10 PM #5:	As big a star as he is within WWE, he has almost zero exposure outside of WWE. Someone who hasn't watched a single WWE program will most likely have no idea who he is, even if a wrestling fan described him. --- "Someday I too will fly... and find you again!" https://imgur.com/urDb8LF <cite>Calwings posted [p:944654451] in Do people ...

The Popo 09/15/20 10:03:54 PM #8:	Im a big wrestling fan, and Id say no. Id imagine there are 3 levels... Megastar = Rock & Hogan... they transcended wrestling beyond the industry Big name wrestlers = Austin (due to simply being the most popular wrestler ever), Savage (known for the Slim Jim ads), and possibly Flair & Cena. Andre wouldve been in this category at one point, but has likely fallen out over time. Everyone else = All other wrestlers, pretty much known by wrestling fans only --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran <cite>The Popo posted [p:944654655] in Do people ...

Good call. Knew Id forget some people.

Proto_Spark 09/15/20 10:21:01 PM #11:	He fits into the same zone as like Roddy Piper, or Macho Man, as if he's a crazy character from the 80s. He isn't a household name or anything, but he's basically the step lower. Like anyone who recognizes say, Jake the Snake would probably also recognize the Undertaker. That said, anyone who heard of him and didn't watch wrestling who be shocked to hear he only really retired earlier this year. Or even that he was a big name in the late 90s and even throughout the 2000s <cite>Proto_Spark posted [p:944655357] in Do people ...

GallisOTK 09/15/20 10:26:38 PM #12:	I've seen that "Undertaker emerges from a flaming coffin while Randy Orton looks scared" meme template on so many social media sites this year that I'll argue he's well-known now just for that meme. Before that, I would have agreed with the "he has barely any exposure outside of WWE" comments. But he's a meme now. --- "WHAT THE HELL'S GOIN' ON OUT HERE!?" ~ Vince Lombardi https://imgur.com/rDu2AJS <cite>GallisOTK posted [p:944655569] in Do people ...

MabusIncarnate 09/17/20 2:06:23 AM #18:	I was gonna say he's a Tennessee governor now and that's why I know who he is, but that's Kane, lol Basically the wrestlers I have heard of are Hulk Hogan, John Cena, The Rock, Kane, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Andre the Giant, and The Undertaker.
