Kane and Undertaker met at Night of Champions, which Undertaker lost. With Kane seeming to have grown stronger than his older "brother", The Undertaker was boosted by the return of his former manager, and Kane's father, Paul Bearer (who hadn't been seen for many years, since June 2004 when The Undertaker betrayed him by drowning him in a crypt of cement (seemingly paying Bearer back for his recent unforgettable betrayal at SummerSlam '96 and siding with Undertaker's arch enemy Mankind, Vader and his brother Kane). With Bearer by The Undertaker's side like old times, the two squared off again at the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view in a Hell in a Cell match for the World Heavyweight Championship. Paul Bearer, however, betrayed The Undertaker by blinding him with the urn, allowing Kane to chokeslam him for the victory (repaying Undertaker for the Concrete Crypt burial at The Great American Bash). The feud culminated with a Buried Alive match at Bragging Rights, in which The Undertaker lost again due to interference by The Nexus, allowing Kane to bury the Undertaker alive, possibly evening a longtime score for The Undertaker's initial ablaze of his brother as children. After the event, The Undertaker went just to appear on WWE, but only sporadically.
