Kane: 5 Awesome Matches And 5 That Sucked

5 Awesome Matches...

5. Team Hell No vs R-Truth & Kofi Kingston - Night Of Champions 2012

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uufXqTwDmT8 Team Hell No was one of the best tag teams in the modern era, and like a lot of tag teams, it began with animosity. Kane and Daniel Bryan had an excellent match at SummerSlam 2012, due in large part to their contentious relationship with AJ Lee. This lead to both men being put into anger management, and being encouraged to "hug it out". This odd-couple was the catalyst for some great television, as the manic intensity of Daniel Bryan mixed with Kane ironically playing the straight man perfectly. After inadvertently defeating the Primetime Players to gain a tag team title match, it was set for Night of Champions 2012. As the two teamed up to potentially win the titles, it began to tell a very interesting and moving story. Kane and Bryan began the match at odds, seemingly annoyed by the very presence of one another. Hard tags, disgruntled looks and a severe lack of team work. But as time went on, the two realized that they may actually be the perfect team. Bryan is a pit bull, and will stop at nothing to keep his opponent on the ground. Kane is a destroyer, complimenting Bryan's small stature. Much like the win that lead them here, their victory over Truth and Kingston is accidental. The match is exciting and tells a great story. Bryan and Kane overcoming the odds, mixed with their perfect comedic timing make it a supremely entertaining match to watch. After the match, check out the two of them screaming how they are the tag team champion. It's comedy gold, and one of the rare times that Kane was used well in a humorous capacity.
