The Undertaker, a legendary WWE superstar, delved into the reasons behind Kane not being part of the Ministry of Darkness faction. The villainous stable, centered around dark magic and evil, saw several heels joining forces under The Phenom’s leadership, but Kane was notably absent from the group.
The Undertaker reflected on this during an episode of his Six Feet Under podcast, mentioning that Kane was in the midst of a successful singles run at that time, making his inclusion unlikely. The Ministry of Darkness, formed in October 1998, was partly a response to the betrayal of The Big Red Machine by his on-screen father, Paul Bearer, who sided with The Undertaker, igniting a feud that led to the faction’s creation.

Regarding his title reigns, The Undertaker shared his personal preference for pursuing championships rather than holding onto them. Despite securing the WWE Championship seven times, he expressed that his character never truly required the title to solidify its stature. The Deadman highlighted that the thrill of chasing the championship was more fulfilling for him than merely defending it.
This sentiment has remained consistent throughout his illustrious career, where he headlined WrestleMania an impressive 27 times, showcasing his enduring popularity and appeal to audiences. Interestingly, there have been hints of a potential WWE return for Kane, adding to the intrigue surrounding the future of these iconic wrestling figures.
