The sixteenth edition of the show of shows, WrestleMania 2000 was infamous for the fact that there wasn't a single one-on-one match without a stipulation on the entire card. In fact, the only bout that saw two people fight was a "Catfight" between Terri Runnels and The Kat. In any event, the experiment was never repeated.

The circumstances saw Kane team up with Rikishi - who had become a popular babyface early in 2000 - to take on former partner X-Pac and his running buddy, DX's Road Dogg. The bout was a very brief contest with Kane pinning X-Pac after a Tombstone.

In a sense, this match sums up much of Kane's career quite well - despite being a tenured upper-midcarder, the fact that "The Big Red Machine" was never the guy and was rarely a top-level player meant that most of his WrestleMania appearances were either short matches or multi-man matches (or both).

In another sense, this was nothing more than another disappointing bout on a bad show.
