A pastor and a professional wrestler walk into a bar. They also occupy the same physical space. Impossible? Not when you're Chris Whaley, a pastor who was also known as The Saint in the ring. With a name like that, it was a foregone conclusion, right? Plus he refused to use steroids, so he had the whole "body is a temple" thing going on. Hard to imagine someone like that bringing the smackdown to The Undertaker, but it happened. And we have proof. His book, The Masked Saint, is a semi-autobiographical account.
