WWE revealed the real-life story behind the introduction of the Kane character on the latest episode of ‘WWE Untold’. It had some comments from The Undertaker who noted on the backstage equation with Shawn Michaels. He had high praises for the in-ring works that The Heart Break Kidd brought alongside but found it hard to get along with him,
“Where Shawn Michaels and I are today and where we were at back then on a personal level… it’s taken a complete 360. If Shawn Michaels back then was on fire, I probably wouldn’t p*** on him to put him out. That being said, there is no one that I would rather be in the ring with than Shawn Michaels. When it came to bell time and we were looking across the ring from each other, you knew it was going to be something really special.”

The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels met for the first time in a match at the first Hell In A Cell match at In Your House: Badd Blood in October 1997.

As a result, Michaels picked up the win on the very first Hell in a Cell match.
