Kane is a dude in a suit now?

I mean he was always a dude in a suit but now he's a dude in a suit-and-tie style suit not a lycra-wrestleman suit?

Kane has faced everyone just about everyone who's been on the WWE roster for the past 15 years, and I can't think of a single great, memorable match one-on-one match he has had. Maybe Taker vs Kane at WM 14, but only because he got to kick out of the tombstone twice. Kane's not necessarily a bad wrestler, but he's certainly not a good one.

The Cena match was godawful and I don't even remember that Orton feud happening. And those are in his top 10. Kane's longevity is incredible for how loving bad he is in ring.

He wore a mask over a mask that's how you can tell when a man means business about his chokeslamming endeavors

Tell the guy you know to tell his friends that a dude on the internet feels like the premise of American Mary could probably support a series on HBO or something for at least a couple seasons

I love those charts, doubly so since they don't include stuff like AJ falling in love with him, or the anger management therapy, or Team Hell No, or feuding with Wyatts getting kidnapped and then returning as a corporate lackey for no explained reason.

Kane's initial monster run was awesome and he's an character/entity that could only exist in pro wrestling, that's why I'll never dislike him despite a lot of his matches/feuds being bleh.

Kane is like the Undertaker. He's a throwback to the old days. He's not a great wrestler but his whole persona is so good that no one really cares.

Lookit this dummy. More Korporate Kane is what we need! I want him to give a Powerpoint prsentation about how he'll defeat his opponent, preferably with graphs and a 3D pie chart.

That would be neat but right now he's just some guy in a suit who attacks the staff when they don't meet quota.

No, he's a fire demon in a suit who attacks the staff when they don't meet quota. And that's hilarious.
