The finish to the match saw Kane tear the door off the cell structure before hitting his storyline brother with a tombstone, allowing Michaels to pick up a dramatic victory.
WWE revealed the real-life story behind the introduction of the Kane character on the latest episode of ‘WWE Untold’, which also featured insights from The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels and Bruce Prichard.
Speaking about the behind-the-scenes tension between himself and Michaels, ‘Taker praised HBK as an in-ring performer but acknowledged that they did not get along outside of a WWE ring during that time.
Michaels, who was notoriously difficult to deal with in the 1990s, added that he and the man behind the Undertaker character, Mark Calaway, were very different people in that era.
