All sizzle and minimal steak, this, but on a show with so much stuff going on it was actually quite nice that an Undertaker/Kane match focussed on the stuff people almost universally enjoy about these specific characters.

'The Big Red Machine' had buried his brother alive at the prior Survivor Series to reincarnate the American Bad A*s as his original self, but the inclusion of Paul Bearer, a host of druids and the spectre of Madison Square Garden itself did much to cultivate the atmosphere WWE had hoped to cultivate in bringing a beloved creation back from the Sports Entertainment dead.

Much like Kane's character itself (for the first ten years at least), this didn't outstay its welcome and did just enough to ensure Kane got the comeuppance he deserved for being a unprovoked sh*thead a few months earlier. Good for The Undertaker and the company for providing that catharsis, and for the fans that paid a pretty penny to see it in person.
