1. WrestleMania XIV — Undertaker vs. Kane The Original Moment Undertaker’s first WrestleMania face-off with Kane introduced the druids as part of his procession, with JR framing them as “creatures of the night” and naming Undertaker the “Prince of Darkness.” The entrance leaned on the circular truss, inward-facing light, symphonic build, smoke, and Undertaker’s iconic gothic cloak.
