    This had the potential to be an amazing story but the way 'Taker told it was boring as hell

    Incredible how The Undertaker became the icon he became in the WWF/WWE. I seem to remember Mark Calloway went to Waltrip. Though I just found out he went to the university of St. Thomas per the interview (I didn’t know they had a basketball team).

    That must have been quite exciting playing basketball on the court with phi slama jama, because the Cougars were the toast of college basketball back then.

    Good for Mark, he’s had quite an illustrious career.

    Hakeem could have been a WWF star.

    what would his wrestling name be?

    Man, what a cool story. I know Undertaker has had quite the career himself, but if it was me, I would be telling that story to everyone who would listen.

    This was actually was a really cool story :D

    I was a wrestling fan growing up but not a die-hard, I never knew Undertaker was from Houston.

    Oh yeah well I use to clean Hakeem’s pool back in High School from 2001-2003…fun fact never clean a prayer fountain….the dream upset is not a fun experience…the dude I was training one time learned the hard way.

    Awesome share. Undertaker has me by about 5 years but I used to ball up at UH back in the day.

    We used to have these late night runs in Hofheinz. Like 40-50 dudes showing up to play and this wasn’t even Rec League.

    Again great story.

    It's generally a good idea to never, ever believe a single word that comes out of a pro wrestler's mouth. Fun story, though, so I hope it's true.

    Funny how Akeem in the WWF was “the African Dream!!!” Then Akeem joined up with the Big Bossman to form “the Twin Towers”

    The WWF sure as heck milked the angle of the sensational Houston Cougars/Rockets Akeem/Hakeem; though Hakeem as far as I know never worked any WWF angles.
