6 WWE Superstars you didn't know were close to The Undertaker and Kane in real life

#3 Edge

Kane and Edge are the best of buddies behind the scenes, and sometimes on-screen too!

Edge had the last match of his career at WrestleMania XXVII where he fought and defended his World Title against Alberto Del Rio. Soon after, in April 2011, Edge announced that he was forced to retire from in-ring competition after repeated neck injuries which would eventually have caused him to be paralysed from the neck-down if he continued to take nasty falls during matches.

Just after his heartbreaking speech, he went backstage and was seen hugging a very emotional and out of character Kane among his other closest friends. Kane and Edge have had some seriously good feuds in the past, and the former wrestler has confessed in multiple interviews that Kane is one of his closest friends from the WWE locker room.
