Undertaker, Kane vs. Wyatt Family: Winner, Reaction from WWE Survivor Series

After weeks of torment at the hands of The Wyatt Family, the Brothers of Destruction gained retribution Sunday night at Survivor Series by defeating The Wyatt Family in a tag team match.

After the match, 'Taker received a standing ovation, as WWE Universe noted: 

The Undertaker and Kane have been two of the most dominant forces in sports entertainment for many years, but Bray Wyatt set out to eliminate them from WWE once and for all with the help of his demonic followers.

Wyatt lost to The Deadman at WrestleMania 31 in his first attempt to make him rest in peace, but the Eater of Worlds never forgot his ultimate goal. That became clear at the conclusion of Hell in a Cell, when Wyatt, Braun Strowman, Harper and Erick Rowan attacked The Phenom following a grueling match against Brock Lesnar.

The Wyatt Family carried 'Taker away, but its diabolical plan didn't end there, as it did the same thing to the Devil's Favorite Demon the next night on Raw.

After taking out both Brothers of Destruction, Wyatt claimed that he had taken ownership of their souls, which resulted in him summoning lightning and fire. The Undertaker and Kane weren't gone for long, however, as they returned on Raw in England and took out the Wyatts.

That resulted in the New Face of Fear challenging the Brothers of Destruction to a match at Survivor Series against any two members of The Wyatt Family.

The Undertaker accepted the stipulation and insisted that Wyatt was in over his head, according to WWE Universe on Twitter:

Despite his failure to beat The Deadman previously, though, Wyatt exuded confidence and attempted to play mind games with two of the most cerebral competitors in WWE history:

While Wyatt announced that 'Taker and Kane would face two members of The Wyatt Family during the buildup toward Survivor Series, he did not reveal his representatives until just before Sunday night's match.

Such tactics could very well rattle most competitors, but since The Undertaker and Kane are such accomplished veterans, that wasn't the case at Survivor Series.

The three-time tag team champions didn't appear to lose a beat despite only teaming together periodically in recent years, and the Wyatts experienced that firsthand as they were once again unable to destroy the pair of legends.

Sunday marked a celebration of 25 years since The Undertaker's debut at Survivor Series 1990, and he simply would not be denied on his night.

The focus now shifts toward what comes next for The Undertaker, Kane and The Wyatt Family as the road to WrestleMania draws closer.

Every indication is that 'Taker will compete at WrestleMania 32 on April 3, but it is anyone's guess who his opponent will be. The same can be said for Wyatt, as he has feuded with many of the heavy hitters on the roster already.

Regardless of the result at Survivor Series, it seems likely that both units will figure heavily into WWE's plans with the Showcase of Immortals very much in sight.
