The Undertaker underwent heart procedure after WrestleMania 41

During WrestleMania 41 weekend, The Undertaker inducted his wife, Michelle McCool, into the WWE Hall of Fame. However, it wasn't a very festive event for the couple because the legendary wrestler was having heart trouble at that point and had to get surgery.

In an episode of their Six Feet Under podcast in June, 'Taker and McCool revealed that The Phenom underwent a heart procedure after WrestleMania 41. He got his heart fixed because of atrial fibrillation, which he was diagnosed with in March.

"Come to find out, you had been in chronic AFib for who knows how long. But the scary part was that you didn't feel any symptoms, so we didn't know (...) We ended up staying in the hospital for four nights where they actually had to cardiovert you and shock you back to a normal rhythm. That sadly lasted, what, 24 hours. Maybe 48. After four days, we go home, two days later, you're back in AFib. Man, I was stressed," McCool said. [H/T: Andrew Ravens of Newsweek]

Luckily for The Undertaker, he got his heart fixed, and things are back to normal. He's started making appearances, most recently in San Diego during the Survivor Series: WarGames weekend.
