Kane's Tag Team Partners Ranked - From Worst To Best
Kane has won 12 tag titles with seven different men. Who was the best and who was the X-Pac?
Kane is fast approaching two full decades in World Wrestling Entertainment as the Devil's Favourite Demon, and he has had a more interesting story than most along that way. He was introduced as The Undertaker's baby brother, and in the 20 years that has followed he has done everything there is to do in the company.
That isn't an overstatement either. He has won pretty much everything there is to win in WWE when it comes to championships, with two World Championship runs sitting alongside stints as ECW Champion, Intercontinental Champion, Hardcore Champion, and a Money in the Bank briefcase. He's burned people, been burned, taken off his mask, put it back on and all in between.
Kane has also won tag team gold on 12 occasions in the company, with some impressive variety alongside him. Seven different men have held tag gold aloft alongside the Big Red Monster. Only Edge has won tag gold in WWE on more occasions than the former evil dentist.
12 reigns, seven different partners, and the range of men to win gold with him beggars belief. In there we find everyone from giants to demons to stoners to superheroes, with a goat, a deranged maniac and, erm, X-Pac also in there.
Here are Kane's tag title winning partners, from worst to best.
7. Mankind
It breaks my heart somewhat to put Mankind at the bottom of any list that includes Big Show and friggin' X-Pac, but here we are. During the Attitude Era, the World Wrestling Federation was somewhat obsessed with main event performers teaming up to win tag team gold, and Mankind and Kane managed this on two occasions.
The duo beat the New Age Outlaws for the titles, lost them to Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker, picked them up from the two big stars before dropping them back to the Outlaws, themselves a thrown together tag team. Six months later, Kane would be tag champion again, albeit with someone who wasn't quite a main event performer.
The only reason these two were together was Paul Bearer and a common enemy in The Undertaker.
