WWE presented the first edition of RAW Roulette in Las Vegas, Nevada in October 2002. The show featured several match stipulations being determined by the spin of a roulette wheel.

One such match was the main event for the WWE Tag Team Championships. Then-Tag Team Champions Kane and The Hurricane were set to defend their titles against Christian & Chris Jericho, Bubba & Spike Dudley, and Jeff Hardy & Rob Van Dam.

The match was selected to be a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match. It was just the fourth TLC match in company history at that point.

Before the match, Triple H attacked The Hurricane backstage. This forced Kane to defend the Tag Team Titles all by himself.

Despite this, Kane was able to fend off three other tag teams and successfully retain the WWE Tag Team Championships for his team.


#1 Kane vs. The Undertaker (WWE WrestleMania XIV)

Kane's WWE debut storyline is arguably the most memorable in WWE history.

After months of build and anticipation about The Undertaker's mystery younger brother, The Big Red Machine made his WWE debut by attacking his older brother at In Your House: Badd Blood 1997.

After months of The Undertaker refusing to fight his brother, The Deadman finally had enough after Kane attempted to burn him alive at the 1998 Royal Rumble.

The first ever meeting of The Undertaker and Kane took place at WrestleMania XIV in 1998. Kane looked dominant, despite losing the match after The Undertaker hit three Tombstone Piledrivers on him. However, the match merely marked the beginning of a story and a rivalry that would continue for decades to come.
