The Undertaker and Kane are two of the most iconic and enigmatic characters in WWE history, and their deeply emotional storyline has captivated fans for decades. Through the years their storyline has taken them through times as fierce rivals and bitter enemies, to tag team partners and more. Their story is filled with betrayals, twists, reconciliations and, of course, unforgettable matches.

In the latest episode of his Six Feet Under With Mark Calaway podcast, Taker reveals Kane would be his first choice to start a wrestling company with.

The Undertaker explains:

If I was to start a wrestling company and I had to pick my first guy, I would pick Kane. One, he can work with anybody. Two, he knows exactly what his gimmick is, he knows what his gimmick isn't. Three, he's going to do business. And four, he's a human being that people wish their kids to be. I mean, so you have all of those things with him. You have pretty much the total package.

He continues.

He was a leader by example. He's not going to be up in somebody's face. He's the type of guy he's going to pull you aside and say hey, maybe you want to try and do it this way or try this... He's going to be a gentleman about whatever he does.

Before I pick out a Stone Cold or The Rock, I want that as my pillar... He was the man.

The Undertaker goes on to discuss more in the episode, such as his tag team partnership The Brothers of Destruction, Kanes character development, The Saudi Arabia match and more.

Regarding his tag team duo The Brothers of Destruction, The Undertaker notes he believes they should be in the WWE Hall of Fame.

I think there are people with less resumes that are in the Hall of Fame. But, we’re both in the Hall of Fame so it’s not something I'm losing much sleep about it. I don’t really want to give another speech. To answer your question, yeah, I think the Brothers of Destruction belong in the Hall of Fame. But, like again, I'm not gonna lose much sleep. I guarantee my speech if it happens, my speech won’t be nearly as long as when I went in on my own,

In a more recent episode published on September 6th, the conversation topic was yet again Kane, with The Undertaker gushing over Kane's "perfect" debut. When asked if that was the greatest debut of a character ever, Taker responds.

Everything could not have been more perfect. Here’s somebody that’s every bit as big as I am, physically, probably bigger when he debuted. I mean, just like, oh my gosh. And then coming face to face, and then, you, like, it just all made sense. It’s like, wow, these guys are brothers. You know, he had long hair then, you know, the mask that covered up his burns. It was just so, so rich.”
