The first version was a legitimately terrifying presence and so well done. The tilt of the head and sudden explosiveness. The way he moved could turn the whole mood.

anyone who has a dog knows where he got That head thing lol it was brilliant 1997 1998 kane was a horror movie come to life his mask with the one green eye was just terrifying

[@imdikonps4396]

Even when you watch the biography the evolution of the Kane was brilliant not being able to talk, losing the mask I remember seeing him call the fire without the mask man he had a lot of emotion Kane was a great gimmick hopefully I mean I don't know if he has the talent but maybe WWE can learn a thing evolving Dexter Lumus over time that gimmick has to evolve or it belongs in comedy but maybe that's where it belongs

[@dejuans1328]

This makes me want an omnibus of Cornette doing Vince impersonations.

[@Partyboy22]

I never minded the unmasking. It reminded me of Harvey Dent/Two-Face in "The Dark Knight Returns." In the comic, Dent's face is eventually fixed to make him look normal again, but it turns out his psyche was never repaired. His mind was so damaged that he saw his entire face as being scarred whenever he looked in a mirror. So it makes sense to explain the burns and scars as simply being all in his mind.

[@wildwine6400]

The "burn scars" being some psychological thing would have been fine if not for the fact multiple times during the Undertaker feud they had Paul Bearer specifically say Kane caused the fire that killed his parents

[@anthonypennington5788]

I always took it that it was second degree burns which can be healed but takes time to heal because Kane said in the interview where he burned Jr that the doctors told him the burns would heal but Kane being a young kid and not knowing better plus Paul bearer wanting a monster he can control didn't believe them that's how I took it

[@MrBigred1990]

The burns could still be psychological regardless of who started the fire.

One of the best things about Kane was that he was big, silent and intinidating with the mask on. I feel like he lost alot of his mistique when that changed and removed the mask.

[@metalmutherfucker1016]

Intimidating, mystique, and dictionary.

[@jessepaiz6356]

I thought 2003 heel maskless Kane had potential as a psychotic heel, but he was a victim of bad writing and never actually beat anyone important.

[@chico1680]

My whole problem with that was that all the things that made Kane who he was, the disfigured freak who has trouble speaking were never explained, never fleshed out. What happened to all the burn marks left on him and why was he speaking with a voice box in the beginning when he could talk normally all this time?

[@Elias6233]

He was only big, silent and intimidating for around 3 years, maybe less. He was already cracking jokes in the early 2000s (Kanenites). You can't do the same shit forever and wrestling with a leather mask must've been hell. So you can't blame the guy for trying different shit

During 2000-2001 Kane was my favourite (The Undertaker being injured and then American Bad Ass). Physically he was in fantastic shape at this time and his was the only gimmick that carried on with the horror theme. To see him then doing hurricanras in matches and dropkicks made him look really impressive. However, I think anything outside of his on/off feud with The Undertaker was booked pretty poorly. He always just seemed to be an enhancement talent. The only other times his character was booked well was when he was unmasked and went crazy, and then the comedy with Team Hell No.

Yeah Vince never saw him as anything except a lesser Undertaker and unfortunately Glenn was too eager to get over other guys which killed his gimmick as a monster.

Kane was a tragic, neutral villain heel. So it kinda works for them to go under certain directions with him. The things they did to humanize Kane were interesting (minus Katie Vick) before he unmasked. I don't mind him having funny interactions with X-Pac, RVD or Hurricane.

Kane should've been the biggest monster heel of all time with a lengthy title run in the late 90s.. Too bad he came along in the same Era as so many 🐐 that he often got stuck in the mid card or losing to bigger stars

[@MrBigred1990]

He was the biggest monster heel of all time probably.

[@Stonehorn]

Mid card? Wtf are you talking about? He’s a multiple times world champion and was in some of the biggest feuds in WWE history

[@J2Eight]

@@Stonehorn Multiple time world champion? You mean when he beat Stone Cold and lost the belt less than 24 hrs later? Or when he won the big gold belt on smackdown when that show was absolutely awful? And the feud where he lost at 'Mania twice? He was clearly not booked as strong as Taker, Austin, Rock, HHH, HBK, Angle, Cena, Orton, Brock, Edge, Batista etc. Booker T and JBL had better reigns as World Heavyweight Champion during that time. Mark Henry's Hall of Pain reign was better too. I'm not bashing the guy, I'm saying he should've been given more. We just going to forget about Corporate Kane? Dude was out there rocking dress slacks 😆

[@J2Eight]

@@MrBigred1990 Bigger than Brock after he destroyed John Cena, bludgeoned Randy Orton, took the streak from Taker, and held the world title hostage for like 5 years? Kane was doing evil shit to guys like Jim Ross and Shane and losing to all the top guys

Kane started off terrifying.. then they found a way to kill his character the disrespect of Kane over the years is pathetic

[@markc2767]

As far as I'm concerned, they ruined his character in the first Mania match against Undertaker. He should've battered Taker from pillar to post and lost on a DQ. The streak would be intact, and Kane would still be a monster.

[@juliandavidhoffer2022]

@@markc2767 I disagree. Kane loses but recovers quickly and leaves taker laying in the ring afterwards. He dominated 90% of the match. It was Kane losing EVERY OTHER MATCH with Taker that really killed him.

[@markc2767]

The point is that he's pinned cleanly, proving that he isn't invulnerable. A screwy DQ win would continue with this aura of an unstoppable monster. Once he takes a clean 3 count, that's it, diminished. They could've carried on similar to Goldberg, a beast who can't be slain by normal means. Can't believe I'm reliving a conversation I had 25 years ago in high school! 😂

[@juliandavidhoffer2022]

@@markc2767 yeah but it’s the Undertaker who beet him. That doesn’t automatically mean everyone should but obviously that’s how F took it.

[@markc2767]

Undertaker was unbeaten at WM until Lesnar. That was nigh on invulnerability. Once his shoulders were pinned that was it. No more mystique, no more aura. It opened the floodgates so even one-move-Roman could beat him. Ask yourself, would Undertaker vs Reigns have been a more enticing prospect if the streak was still intact? Of course it would! They could've continued Kane's destructive path until the following Wrestlemania with the right storytelling and neither character coming out the other end looking weak. They pulled the trigger too early is what I'm trying to say.

Name one major blue city that isn't a complete waste land of crime, drugs, and poverty. Jim surely likes to think his side of the political spectrum is so righteous, but as someone such as myself who currently lives in the far left city of Seattle and has to also endure the great far left city of Portland, I can say with experience that democrats and blue states arent exactly places with great leaders, it's all sweet talk, empty promises and bad policies. Your team really doesn't have a good track record going on, especially your president. But on the contrary I've heard nothing but good things about Glenn as mayor, he's beloved by his community and looked up to as a leader of a city that really doesn't seem to be in the complete dump, go figure..
