[edit] History
Although they have teamed up before in previous occasions (one notable time was their short lived quest for the WWF Tag Team Championship at Vengeance 2001) it wasn't until 2005 when they made a functional team. At Taboo Tuesday 2005, the fans had a choice of who would be the third man to join John Cena and Kurt Angle in the Triple Threat main event for the WWE Championship. The two were choices along with Shawn Michaels. During the voting period the two were placed in tag team matchees, while Micheals was placed in singles matches to influence the vote. Michaels won the vote which meant that Kane and Big Show had to face Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch for the World Tag Team Championship. Kane and Big Show won the match and became champions. The two dominated RAW's tag team division, this dominance even prompted the Coach to say it is unfair such a tag-team can be formed.
In the latter half of 2005, an interbrand feud between the RAW and SmackDown! brands included Kane and Big Show. During the feud, Kane and Big Show played the role of monster heels. The two invaded SmackDown! twice, the first resulted in them double chokeslaming the World Heavyweight Champion Batista while the second involved them chokeslaming Batista through an announcers table. When SmackDown! superstars returned the offer by invading RAW, Kane and Big Show chokeslamed Batista through a car windshield but were later in the night met by Batista who beat the two down with a pipe.
The feud ended at Armageddon 2005, when the Big Show and Kane took on SmackDown's WWE Tag Team Champions Batista and Rey Mysterio. RAW's Tag Team Champions won that match after Kane pinned Mysterio.
The pair would go on to feud with Carlito and Chris Masters. Show and Kane would go on to defeat the opposing pair in a World Tag Title match at Wrestlemania 22.
On the April 3rd edition of RAW, Spirit Squad members Kenny and Mikey defeated The Big Show and Kane to win their World Tag Team Championships with help from the other members of the Spirit Squad (Nicky, Mitch, and Johnny), ending The Big Show and Kane's 154 day reign as the World Tag Team Champions.
The next week, Kane snapped and got them DQ'd; He Chokeslammed the entire Spirit Squad, the referee and eventually Big Show himself, dissolving the once-successful tag team.
Kane and The Big Show's entrance started off with the beginning of Big Shows music, and then Kane's fire would come up and the two would enter to Kane's music.
