Few distinct singles competitors are as closely linked as The Undertaker and Kane. They are kayfabe brothers, a story that saw Kane's introduction to the company in 1997. In spite of this, their careers did not actually intertwine all that much.

The brothers would feud at Paul Bearer's behest, and again in 2004 as a means of bringing back The Undertaker's 'Deadman' gimmick. Beyond that, the most meaningful impact the two legends made was in 2001, as 'The Brothers of Destruction'.

Rarely has a greater void appeared as it did post-'Mania X-Seven. Of the two certified faces of the WWE, one was off to Hollywood, and the other had just made a dramatic heel turn. What's more, Stone Cold Steve Austin would form a villainous twosome that will appear later on this list, seemingly daring 'Taker and Kane to step up to the plate of WWE's top babyfaces.

Their battles would bring the WWF Tag Team Championships to the main event. Though both men will be Hall of Famers for their legendary singles accomplishments, their ability to adapt into a monster team helped carry the company during a tumultuous period.
