In many ways, Kane's very first WrestleMania bout was his most memorable.

Since debuting at Badd Blood in 1997, "The Big Red Machine" had been torturing The Undertaker, trying to goad his older brother into a match. Undertaker refused, but at the Royal Rumble, Kane tried to burn Undertaker alive in a casket - that set "The Phenom's" head straight and he agreed to face his brother at the show of shows.

Their bout may not have been anything special from a technical point of view, but it was a dramatic contest that was nearly six months in the making. Undertaker had quite a bit of trouble with his near-invulnerable brother, especially when Kane avoided Undertaker's dive, sending "The Phenom" through a table.

Back in the ring, Undertaker attempted a Tombstone, but Kane reversed it and hit one of his own. Shockingly, Undertaker kicked out, but soon afterwards, Kane kicked out of one of The Undertaker's Tombstones. Eventually, two more Tombstones put Kane down for three, but a post-match attack from "The Big Red Machine" ensured that the bad blood between the brothers was far from settled.
