WWE History of the Undertaker and Kane, the Brothers of Destruction - Part 1
The relationship between The Undertaker and Kane has been a mystery for some time, and their history together is even more mysterious - and hard to decipher. The Undertaker, otherwise known as The Phenom, debuted in 1990 and held main event status well into 1997, when Kane was introduced
to the WWF as The Undertaker's younger, vengeful brother. So far the only true source of their history is told by Paul Bearer, former manager of The Undertaker, but still very little is known about them. This is the first part of an intimate look into the Brothers of Destruction, with conclusions drawn from hints given on various WWF and WWE TV segments.
The Beginning of The Undertaker
The Undertaker debuted in Survivor Series 1990, as the mystery member of Ted Dibiase's team. He was managed by Brother Love, but management was changed over to Paul Bearer soon after.
Physically, he was a giant. Billed at 6'10'' 1/2, wearing a wide-brimmed black hat and a long trench coat, he marched to the ring slowly, in stride to his song The Funeral March. His hair, first bright red which was dyed black later on, always covered his face, and eventually grew well past his back. One of his signature expressions was rolling his eyes backwards, so that you could only see the whites of his eyes. He won the championship on Survivor Series 1991, but he only kept it for 6 days - the shortest reign during this time (ironically, Kane would beat this record by holding it for only a day).
Nothing was known about The Undertaker at this point. He came from Death Valley, California, and he drew power from an urn Paul Bearer held.
He would defeat many opponents at this time, including Hulk Hogan, Yokozuna, Giant Gonzalez, and Diesel. He eventually rose to the top in the mid 90s, defeating main contenders and gaining main event status - until Mankind debuted in 1996.
