#1 WWE legends The Undertaker and Kane

Kane thinks that his storyline with The Undertaker is the most brilliant storyline WWE has ever done, and there aren’t many diehard wrestling fans who would disagree. The Brothers of Destruction were among the most destructive tag teams in WWE history, and their rivalry with each other were among the best the WWE Universe has ever seen.

Paul Bearer was instrumental in bringing their storyline to WWE television and making the on-screen half brothers have some outstanding feuds in the company.

Good friends in real-life, The Undertaker and Kane matched each other perfectly and gave fans those big moments that they were willing to pay for.

“Through the years we’ve been together through so much. Very unique the both of us. Bray Wyatt is sort of the new character who has the super-natural component and the cool-creepiness but the fact that we were able to come in and be such fierce rivals but yet everything turned and to be able to join forces and ally with ourselves and split and come back again, if you look (and I’m a big fan) of old NWA you would have these relationships and feuds just go on for years and years and it was the same type of deal. I’ve said this many times and I really believe this is true. I believe that the Kane / Undertaker story if you look at epic storytelling like Greek mythology, that is what it is. It is the best piece of epic story telling that the WWE has ever done. There is a huge story arc with all of these back stories and all of these extremely powerful characters and by that I mean the personalities and to be able to make that work and work as well as it always has is just amazing. Hats off to Vince McMahon for being able to do that with the creative teams and his vision as well as Taker and as well as my good friend the late Paul Bearer. It was a lot of moving parts and he was always able to make them work smoothly and the finished product was beautiful.”

From casket matches to inferno matches, fans got several exciting matches between the two men, and their friendship and rivalry will forever be remembered as some of the best storytelling WWE has ever delivered.
