00:00Well, ladies and gentlemen, McMahon held hostage by Austin, who is regrettably armed and obviously dangerous.
00:07He met his life!
00:13The following is a test-hit match.
00:16Picking his way to the ring, he weighs in at 326 pounds, Kane!
00:23Kane and The Undertaker met at Judgment Day just 24 hours ago.
00:27And if it had to, it was a shocking situation when Paul Bearer came to the ring.
00:32We thought Paul Bearer, armed with a steel chair, was going to strike The Undertaker.
00:37But when Paul Bearer talked his own son into turning his back, Paul Bearer struck Kane from behind.
00:44And that led to The Undertaker grabbing the chair and striking Kane with the most vile shot to the head
00:51that maybe we've ever seen.
00:52Kane went down, was out, but Stone Cold did not count The Undertaker's, raised The Undertaker's hand, count Kane down.
01:02Of course, some consequences were Austin got fired because of it.
01:06Right.
01:06But we do not have a WWF champion.
01:11And of course, early tonight, Kane made the challenge for this test-hit match that was accepted.
01:17Well, folks, the 1998 Survivor Series is proudly presented by Nestle Crunch.
01:23Survivor Series emanates from the Kiel Center in St. Louis, Missouri on Sunday, November the 15th.
01:30Nestle Crunch is just more fun to munch.
01:55And his opponent, being accompanied to the ring by Paul Bearer, from Death Valley.
02:02Weighing in at 328 pounds, The Undertaker.
02:10The Undertaker is the undisputed master of the casket matches.
02:15Right.
02:15And of course, the object of the casket match is that balls do not count in a casket match.
02:20The only way to win the contest is to place your opponent inside the casket and shut the lid.
02:28And why, why then would Vince McMahon, and playing You Bet Your Life, choose Kane?
02:37Well, why not?
02:39Well, because that man's the master of the casket match.
02:41However, I do remember a casket match one time between these two individuals.
02:47The casket was set on fire.
02:49The casket was ignited by these unholy powers of these two.
02:53And Kane, the younger, the bigger, the stronger brother of The Undertaker.
02:59Well, they're both huge.
03:00Well, no doubt about that.
03:01Undertaker at 16 and a half.
03:03Kane just a shade under seven feet.
03:05Kane, though, at about 330 pounds.
03:07I think has about 10 pounds, maybe less on The Undertaker.
03:11Bottom line is, Paul Bearer is back with The Undertaker.
03:14That could be the wild card in this matchup.
03:17And you've got to think that both these men will be a part of that big 16-man single elimination
03:23tournament
03:24at the Survivor Series.
03:26And much like last night, The Undertaker attempted to destroy Kane's vertical base.
03:30He's going right back after that quadricep, that thigh muscle again.
03:35As the phenom goes airborne.
03:38And looks for the cover, but a quick kickout.
03:41There's no covers, remember.
03:43Do you realize what kind of stakes are riding on this match?
03:46This is so much more than just a casket match.
03:49I mean, Mr. McMahon hangs in the balance here.
03:52In fact, they're being held hostage by an idiot, a nut, a psycho.
03:56You know, Kane, one of the traits of a rattlesnake is they don't think twice about striking their victims.
04:02Mr. McMahon tonight is a victim.
04:04He knows how it feels to be controlled, to be totally powerless.
04:11That's what has happened to Mr. McMahon here tonight.
04:15Oh, what a move by The Undertaker.
04:17What a DDT.
04:18And Kane set right up.
04:20Good.
04:22Well, because Mr. McMahon has predicted that Kane will win, you're really pulling for the big red machine.
04:28Well, what do you think?
04:30I mean, do you want to give the idiot Stone Cold Steve Austin just a license?
04:35Look out!
04:35Oh, no!
04:36He's in there!
04:38The lid has to be shut.
04:40Both men, both The Undertaker and Kane, are inside the casket here.
04:46I mean, let's face it.
04:47Mr. McMahon has bet his life on this.
04:49And his life is worth much more than anybody else's around here.
04:52I mean, he's the owner of this company.
04:57Kane now with a distinct advantage on his brother, The Undertaker.
05:02Oh, low blow, but no disqualifications in these casket matches.
05:06They are really, really physical of the survival of the fittest, shall we say, in this environment.
05:14And a DDT, The Undertaker delivering a DDT on his brother in the casket.
05:22And the lid is shot.
05:25They're both in the casket.
05:27What's Walbearer got in his hand?
05:29That's here.
05:30Kane and The Undertaker fighting.
05:32Look at this!
05:33And Kane and The Undertaker are destroying the casket.
05:38There's got to be a, well, if you don't have a casket, it's going to be hard to have a
05:43winner here.
05:45Oh, my God!
05:46Can you believe these two, these two monsters are destroying this casket?
05:52I mean, literally destroying this casket.
05:55I've never seen anything quite like this.
06:00Get out, Kane!
06:03Well, the match is going to continue, but I don't know, I don't know how simply because
06:08the casket's essentially been destroyed.
06:14Undertaker on the head, but outside comes Kane.
06:17And we are in a dilemma here.
06:19What do the officials do?
06:21Well, I know one thing.
06:22I don't think these guys care that the casket's destroyed.
06:25And I don't think either, oh!
06:26I don't think either Kane or Undertaker cares what happens to Mr. McMahon!
06:29Kane caught The Undertaker coming off the apron and powering back into the, into the ring.
06:35And now Kane has his sights set on Paul Bear, his own father.
06:39What is going to happen?
06:41Look at Paul Bear running away.
06:43That's the smartest thing he's done all night, is run away from Kane.
06:48Uh-oh.
06:48And here comes The Undertaker.
06:49What's it say?
06:50We turn.
06:51Oh, God, you can hear that.
06:52It sounded like a rifle shot.
06:54Don't say that.
06:57Kane nailed from behind by his brother.
07:01And somewhere, somewhere soon, these two men are going to be able to get out each other one more time.
07:09If there's anything left of Kane here tonight, Kane may be destroyed just like the casket.
07:17Paul Bear, what a, what a hideous, uh-oh.
07:21Well, Kane is up.
07:25Kane is up, and he's got, he's got the chair.
07:27He's going after The Undertaker and Paul Bear.
07:32Well, what is, what's going to happen?
07:36Repraise a little up.
