The Undertaker's 10 Greatest Feuds Of His WWE Career

8. Vs. Kane

Thanks to the machinations of "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase, The Undertaker once had to face himself- or at the very least, an imposter. An "Underfaker," if you will. Despite coming out on top in the encounter, it nonetheless did little to prepare Undertaker for what was yet to face: His own brother. Paul Bearer had dangled the threat of revealing the truth of what had happened to Undertaker's parents, as well as Kane himself, over the Dead Man in an effort to gain control of the then-champion. When Undertaker had enough, Bearer revealed that Kane was in fact still alive, and threatened to bring him into the World Wrestling Federation, with the champion calling his bluff. As it turns out, Bearer's threats were anything but as he appeared at the climax of the first-ever Hell in a Cell match between Undertaker and Shawn Michaels with Kane in tow. The younger brother ripped the door off the hinges to the structure and proceeded to lay out the Dead Man with his own finishing move, the Tombstone piledriver, allowing Michaels the narrow victory. At first, Undertaker did not want to fight his own flesh and blood, but after numerous match interferences and "messages" consisting of Tombstoning and setting other members of the WWF on fire (or attempts to), Undertaker gave in and the two clashed at WrestleMania XIV, coming out victorious in what would be the first of many encounters for years to come. Since then, the trio of Undertaker, Kane, and Paul Bearer have all been any combination of allies and enemies, the brothers even capturing some tag team gold a couple of times. And while Undertaker's number of appearances has diminished, Kane remains a strong presence on TV to this very day.
