10 Wrestlers Who Came Back From The Dead

6. Kane

In the lead-up to The Undertaker's match with Shawn Michaels at the In Your House: Badd Blood event in October, 1997, 'Taker's former manager Paul Bearer started to warn that someone called 'Kane' was about to appear. Selling the impact of Bearer's words, Undertaker was stricken with disbelief that this apparent brother was still alive. The story has changed so many times over the years, so much so that the history of The Undertaker and Kane has even been joked about onscreen by WWE. At first, the tale dictated that The Undertaker had burned down his family home, supposedly killing his parents and younger brother.What Bearer was telling the world was that this sibling, the aforementioned Kane, was still alive and kicking, and was ready to return to face The Undertaker. During the first ever Hell In A Cell match, Kane would appear, ripping the door from the cage and nailing 'Taker with a Tombstone Piledriver, proving that he hadn't passed away after all. This was treated like someone returning from the grave, and even though Kane was only earmarked for a short run, he's still on WWE TV all these years later.
