Kane's initial unmasked run was massively underrated imo. He went from being a masked silent killer in the same vein as Jason Voorhees/Michael Myers to being an emotionally unstable psychopath. Glenn Jacobs played the roles to perfection despite the fact he was a victim of some awful booking and storylines.
Falou tudo
Kane careca psicopata é a melhor versão dele
It was awesome, truly special, until Shane McMahon sidetracked what could have been a massive headlining run.
if this wasn't scripted, Kane would've probably retired earlier because of the affection and Kane would've been one of the best wwe stars with almost no loses
Kan
Watching this makes me realise that they didn’t give Kane enough, wasted a lot of precious time that could’ve made him even more of a legend
They didn't know what to do with him
@Wrestling content His title runs compared to his stature during the attitude and ruthless era doesn’t add up, but it does for everyone else, he deserved more
The worst part is he never won a single royal rumble match
He was in the Austin, rock, taker, angle, triple h era ... they used him perfectly... esp his tag team runs with xpac and rvd
I remember when I was a kid and Kane lost the world heavyweight title to Stone Cold the next night. I was so disappointed.
the first 4-5 years of Kane was definitely the most exciting and coolest persona ever in the wwf. i don’t care how much charisma the other superstars had, cause Kane simply made every young audience want to impersonate him. That is the biggest success.
97 version was a simple menace to society scary movie type
Kane is a great example of a wrestling character so good that he didn't need constant title reigns to stay relevant through out his tenure, it was just a shame wwf creative kept giving him shitty story lines.
His creative was so hit or miss, he should have been given more at a lot of points.
@@Thor-Orion yeah he was badly utilized after his first few years, definitely deserved better writing.
Kane is like taker or andre.
It really doesn’t make sense to put the belt on him because he’s going to draw regardless of whether or not he’s a champion.
@@jefftaylor1186 More like Andre. Putting the belt on Taker at certain points made a lot of sense because whoever could take it off of him would get a huge rub.
he deserved more though.
1997 to 1998 Kane is my fave.. as soon as he turned face and aligned himself with X-Pac, he became more weak imo.
Original was a absolute beast, unstoppable monster.
Yeah he peaked and declined at the same time when he said “Suuuucccck It!” I remember being terrified by that as a kid and at the same time being happy because he overcame his fears and was starting to become human.
But then he just started getting more and more human
He became more human
By 1999 it was clear they had no plans to have him in the main event scene. 2001-2003 would’ve been the time to build him back up.
I agree.
Which to me should be the worst
03 Kane was easily the most over Kane ever was he was getting pops that a main event star was getting and should have definitely won the world championship as for physically 200-2001 was his peak
Yeah I think same.
This guy doesn’t know how 99 Kane was over 🤔
Kane didn't want the title. Said it his self
At his physical peak he looked like a goddamn monster. One of the best physiques ever in his prime
Late 02 he was the most over I his career
Although Kane and Taker ended up feuding again in mid 2000s it was a huge missed opportunity not drafting him to smack-down around 03. Having him and Taker feud around that time over the heavyweight belt would of been great. Kane deserved at least a few more championship runs.
*Would have
And I completely agree
97-02 Kane was next level. I actually wish people knew, as a teenager, what it felt like when he came on the scene. Utter BEAST.
2001-2003 Kane will always be my favorite(s). I was terrified of him when he turned heel in mid-2003 because I'd only ever seen him as a face, and his path of destruction was incredible, but nothing beats that run for me, not even his original run.
He was a psycho then. Lighting JR on fire and shit. What the hell
@@AK47Gang100 wwe knew that the mask hid kanes emotions without it he just became his character and spoke
Same here, like his character was so good the shit genuinely scared me back then😭😂
@@PlanetaryDrey he was a monster with the mask but once wwe saw how much of a main event machine he was they knew that was money all the way! If he won in 2003 against Triple H or Goldberg it would've been the best reign in his career 💯
I liked the 2001 look with the black mask and the outfit ditching the sleeve to a muscle shirt look he was in the best physical shape he was huge and i think was really over especially in the brothers of destruction run him and taker got huge pops
Everything about the original Kane, right from his character to entrance music to lighting was really terrifying and whoever came up with this was one hell of a story writer.
There isnt a question. Kanes debut was incredible. Every version after that made him look really silly and thats a fact. The mask should never have been removed
If they kept him in the mask he would have died out years ago! The mask removal was perfect it gave him an extension on his career
I disagree. If u enjoyed Debut Kane then there’s no way you didn’t enjoy the FIRST time he took his mask off! Unmasked Kane along with Triple H & Goldberg CARRIED RAW!
early unmasked Kane was a monster he was crazy
Goldberg didn’t carry shit my boy
Nah I think he should’ve took it off eventually but his role needed to change just like the undertaker at times and other big stars .
The original version of Kane will go down as the greatest version of any versions he has portraited. I still don't understand why they had him remove and change his attire and let him become unmasked. "Masked" Kane felt legitimate and dominant. No doubt that had to be the best version of Kane.
Thought it was his choice to remove the mask
He was doing the horror movie See No Evil so he had to go unmasked
@@andrewcreech2691 that happened 3 years later 😂😂
Kane wanted to unmask Glen said he couldn’t breath and when they cut it in half it kept falling off.
Exactly,they fucked that up
Kane should’ve just kept the same attire throughout his career. 97-02
He should have his retirement match with his debut attire against AJ Styles in hell in a cell at Wrestlemania
@@thomasgunther5604 I think he has already retired. He is 50+ and he is the mayor of Knoxville so i can't imagine him returning
@@thomasgunther5604 also that sounds like something i would do in wwe 2k22
@@thomasgunther5604 How ironic considering Takers last match was with AJ Styles in a bury alive match lol
Same Gimmick too.
To me, Kane has to be the most focused wrestler ever. The character for Kane is that perfect. Like, it’s not overdone but it’s done right. It fits. Once you look at him, you cannot look away. His presence is just bizarre.
Nah. He was directionless from WM2000.
@@cakes3958 From WM2000? What have you been smoking? 🤦♂️
@@ITSHIM1294 storyline wise, he was flailing after that. Random heel turn on Taker and then going after random faces until RR2001.
I honestly believe the people that screamed he’s stale, gimmicks overdone, he’s boring. Never really got the idea of Kane go begin with. On top of that I like to call them bandwagon fans. They are all for the person for a short period of time, then the wrestler doesn’t win the big championship and right away they turn their back. Then start saying nonsense this. It’s true you can’t satisfy those kinds fans.
Glenn Jacob’s has a massive presence, people backstage say he was one of the strongest wrestlers to ever live.
Kane is like the Shaq of the wwe. He had around a 3 year stretch where he was absolutely the most dominant guy. Never seen anything like it. Wish it lasted longer.
Early Kane was terrifying, one hell of an awesome character creation.
Not all ideas given to him after that were good but nobody can say Glenn didn't do his best with what he was given. He's surprisingly versatile, he can do serious, psychotic, silent or funny very well. His mic skills are also excellent
Singlet Kane 2000 - 2001 was my favorite version of him. He looked so freaking jacked. Then he tore his (bicep? can't remember) coming back with the half mask and looked noticeably leaner and never quite regained the physique pre-injury...always bummed me out as he was a beast.
Absolutely, that Kane 200-2001 was badass. Then bicep injury made him more leaner
That was my favorite Kane as well besides unmasked and original Kane.
also the way he did promos (with his real voice) and his tone was a perfect fit for an aggressive monster until they paired him with taker (who was trying to be cool but was not) and he was not the same since he turned face.
@@TheFeather_99 For sure, and he could be funny when you least expect it. Like trying to play a claw prize game for a kid, fails so he punches the glass and just grabs all the dolls and gives it to the kid! Or that one promo when Hulk Hogan, The Rock and Kane were about to face the NWO. Kane was effin hilarious by imitating both the Rock and Hogan. It made me and my friends double over with laughter for ages! This one: ua-cam.com/video/tvxQh2xafcE/v-deo.html
Late 02, ffw tag tlc title match. Defended titles by himself. Hurricane was hurt
His 97-98 original version will always be his best to me because that was when he was a monster and was pushed to be unstoppable. He should've never unmadked
OG 97-98 Kane was ridiculously op. Sad they nerfed him he would be impossible to beat if they kept him that way. Watching him destroy everyone was a joy.
Best comment period 🔥
Attitude Era Kane was a menace. I remember one time where he was pouring gasoline on everyone in the ring and was gonna set them on fire LOL JR was goin insane
I don’t understand why the WWE had this constant need to make fun of Kane. The Undertaker was taken seriously pretty much throughout his whole career. They kept trying to make Kane funny and quirky, when they should have just treated him the same as his brother. So frustrating.
2001 Kane 💪
Yow it's you
❤❤
That chained entrance to kick Bischoff's ass is absolute gold!
Not to mention he had his best theme at the time
If I had the chance to re invent the Corporate Kane run, I would’ve fashioned him in more of a style similar to Sinister Minister. I imagine Kane, with his demon eye and a corporate suit of red and black, making deals and matches with wrestlers much like a crossroads demon making a pact for your soul. Making empty promises, cashing in on favors and screwing the opposition.
Pure and utter genius right here.
For me it’s 2003 Kane. Nothing can top my fandom of that time, till this day I live horror movies because of that run.
Can't argue with Singlet (2000-2001) and OG Kane (1997-1998) being his best eras. 1999 when he trimmed down and was teaming with X-Pac was another real big time frame for Kane; he started to expand his moveset and got to be a Face for the first time. It was kind of like 2002/2003 except less talking and X-Pac as his partner instead of RVD.
I never really thought much of the unmasked psychopath kane at the time. I was just so disappointed that they removed his mask. I really enjoyed the scarred and tormented soul. However, thinking back after what you said, makes sense on why it was so good. I agree that the original debut was epic. I definitely prefer the scary versions. Haven't watched most of those newer ones. I think the Lita timeframe was when I got too busy and not as interested in WWE. I still watch from time to time. Kane is definitely on my short list of favorites.
His ability to succeed in all of them is because of how loved his OG role was... Amazing how he somehow never got pushed to the very top as the champion in the height of the Attitude Era. Insane what "could have been" from his character
I loved how the mask added a lot of mystique. it covered his emotions and intentions so you couldn't get a read on him or humanize him, he was Destruction incarnate. His resurrection was just massive disappointment, his debut should have appeared on Raw after Mania confronting The Undertaker, would have been a poetic start to reignite his ability to stoke fear, that's what they did for Taker's resurrection.
When I saw him return with that welding mask I thought that was going to be the mask he'd wear.
@@jameskillington7286 i liked the theme of that mask better it was like Kane returned to form. The red demonic look he went with didn't work for me. What made the old masks scary is the black eye makeup & the small cutouts didn't let you get a good look at his eyes
@@devanvieira9174 And there was how at certain angles, you couldn't see his eyes at all so it was just two black holes there. It made him look super intimidating.
Kane was in his best physical shape from about 2002-2003.
But if you want to talk character, Kane was at his best in his early days when he was a pure unstoppable Monster with a great backstory from 97-98.
I loved Kane during the half mask era. He was in brilliant shape.
Kane doing the Roonie was awesome and Jerry The King Lawler’s reaction was awesome
He deserved to win the 2001 Royal Rumble
Yeah he did but then we wouldn’t have gotten the rock vs Austin at wrestlemania
How would we get Rock vs Austin then
97' Kane will always reign supreme in my book. The most terrifying and the most bad ass Kane. He never spoke which was truly scary. He was unpredictable. I still remember the heat I felt from the flames during a Monday night Raw event. It was amazing.
OG Masked Kane is the GOAT. His return in 2000 was one of my all-time favorite WWE moments.
2003 Kane after the night at the garden was by far the most sadistic Kane we’ve ever seen one of I believe the most forgotten rivalries was Kane vs Shane MCMahon rage,intense,and beyond violent
Despite a lot of forgetable matches, lack of world tittle reigns and never really getting his spot at Wrestlemania. Every match that Kane participated had fans looking forward to the feud even without a title on the line. Even if Kane did not win a Royal Rumble, its the top superstar in the match with multiple milestones (while many winners have been forgotten). He put a lot of superstars over (saldy a great amount of those where unsuccessful proyects that damaged his rep by losing to them), But he always proved to be the bigger man (literally and figuratively) carrying on and doing his best to get the storyline over.
From Kane's inception up until he beat Austin in the first blood match, that will forever be my favourite version of Kane. The build up to his Wrestlemania 14 match with Taker' will always be my favourite feud I've ever seen. It was the peak of my wrestling fandom.
I remember this Kane was when you’re not allowed to say the date “May 19th” around him, that led him to a heel turn and become unstoppable again.
Half-Masked Kane was an anomaly. If there were ever a time where he should've won the flagship title, it was that time. Most athletic he'd ever been while keeping the same cool but still monstrous personality on the mic.
agreed
1997 Kane casually interrupting matches to kill people while Paul Bearer screeched at Undertaker. Perfection.
The half-mask run is my favorite, it seemed like he was genuinely having a lot of fun and he was in incredible shape. Tag teaming with The Hurricane was awesome too
2011/2012 Resurrected Kane is what made me love Kane. It's when I was first introduced to him. But 2000-2005 and his theme is also what made me love him
My favorite version was when he was masked, not talking much, and was in between heel and face. Brothers of destruction was just awesome to watch
When he took his mask off for the first time . He just had a whole different vibe to him
20:44 you forgot choke slamming eric bischoff off the stage. When he took his mask off he went on a streak. Not to mention getting his own horror film
That was some moment 💪
May 19th
Kane debut was great. Up until the unmasking bits were the best. I feel sorry for the kids that didn't get to experience wwf from like 95-2000.
Likewise
Kane and RVD were an underrated tag team.
The first version has always been my favourite.
That debut was second only the Y2J in my opinion.
Also if not for Kane’s interferences in the HBK vs Taker HIAC match…do we get the Montreal screw job still? Maybe in some form, but I bet it would have been way different. That’s was the only way I feel HBK could have believably won that match to become top contender.
nah kane one was best..it had storyline and hype..y2j one was quite random..it is remembered for the pop and promo exchange with the rock..
@@nisargkasturiwale3877 kinda hard to argue when you put it like that.
@@nisargkasturiwale3877 that’s true but Y2J’s debut was once in a millennium and will never evvveeeeer happen…again..ah.
Kane is the best Tag Team Partner anyone has ever had in WWE. He always elevates everyone around him and provides the best contrast in styles.
yeah for sure he was able to pull off the giant and small guy several times likr with xpac or byran and then when he teamed with undertaker or big show it was like just 2 monsters
Love this video and glad you mentioned the matches with Albert
Masked Kane from 1997-2003 was the best variation.
The worst: I have to go with the Corporate Kane variation.
Demon Kane was pretty bad too. Looked too chunky in his attire and his mask was wack.
Yo, just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed this a lot!
Please make it a format, continuing with other superstars like HHH, Edge, HBK, Undertaker, and so on!
My top 3 favorite attires is 2000 inverted black and red attire and the original 97’ attire and 2003 half mask straight jacket attire but I believe the most monstrous Kane ever was is his 2003-2004 run after he unmasked I loved it hopefully he gets one last great run with a new attire soon
‘97 Kane is untouchable! Literally frightened as a kid when he came out
Amazing video man…extremely well done.
Kane will always be one of my favorite characters in WWE history. My favorite versions will always be 1997-2000 where he was literally a horror movie villain come to life, 2001-2002 where he was the strong silent type and showed how much a pure wrestler he was, 2003-2004 where the character was revealed to internally scarred and everyone should feel his pain, 2010 where he had a successful storyline where he looking for his brother’s attacker but, it turned out to him and went on to win the big gold belt and beat Undertaker 3 times, and 2012-2014 where he found himself again and revealed he was locked in a basement as a child. Glen Jacobs you can easily tell he was very easy to work with and he was definitely a team player
V
I was truly scared as a kid when the big red machine came out, unreal character and it's a shame after watching this what they did to the character but he still seemed to make it work. The big red machine Kane was my all time favorite wrestler with Undertaker a close 2nd.
the half masked kane with the black trunks and tank top with the red bondage straps over the chest and leg. god it was such a good look
Kane was my fav when I watched it in the 90s/ early 2000s
They never used him to his full potential
The worse was the corporate kane
Facts
Yeah then the 2012 Kane those two were the worst
1999-2000 Kane was an ABSOLUTE BEAST 🔥🔥🔥
2001
25:30
Dude...literal perfection💁🏻♀️
The original "Silent but Violent Monster" is my personal favorite. I started to really get into wrestling at the beginning of The Attitude Era where Kane debuted in but also, he was portrayed as an "opposite but just as equal & just as dark" version of his "brother" The Undertaker. The Undertaker would enter on shutting out the lights then his fabled funeral bell gong with a blue hue that would light the stage & ring, Kane's entrance back then was a mirror image to The Undertaker's in contrast. For Kane the lights would go out as well but, his intro would start with a haunting organ playing then the stage & ring would slowly start to light up in red hue(in contrast to The Undertaker's blue hue) and, "hellfire" would erupt from the stage as he marched to the ring like a machine hell bent on destroying it. His going through phases just like his brother The Undertaker shows that "Kane" has ALWAYS followed after his big brother like a little brother would in one way or another. Our fallen morticious Paul Bearer would be proud of both of his boys... As he rightfully should be... 😔
People who have been alive throughout Kane's career are the only ones that can speak.. but it's very obvious that the 2000 - 2001 (fire tank top) Kane is the absolute prime. Even 20 years throughout, 9 outta 10 people say this.. Some mention No Mercy 2003 Kane, and Some mention debut Kane, with the double long sleeves and had a scary ass voice.
Agreed
I started watching In 02 smack down lane is best imo
Truth bro
1997 kane through to wrestlemania 14 (1998) was his best run. Untouchable, monster, the losses to taker at wrestlemania and the inferno match was the beginning of the end for that version of Kane and that for me was when he became watered down, beatable and lost that edge
Realist comment ever🔥🔥🔥
@@MrWolverine155 bro he went down hill so bad people don’t realise it. Came into it invincible and untouchable, within 12 months he was half the monster we saw at Hell In a cell

Some facts related to Kane that breaks my heart as a fan:
1) He never got to win a rumble
2) Never got a chance to headline WM
3) Terrible storylines like Corporate Kane, Concessions Kane (wtf was that?), Lita and so on.
4) A monster who never got to dominate wrestlers like Cena, Batista, Goldberg & Lesnar in a decent storyline.
5) Never won a wwe championship again
These videos are so thorough. I really wish in order, like a complete storyline.
Come on!!! Stalker Kane was one of the best kane it shouldn’t be the worst for sure.. the love triangle of Kane, Lita & Matt hardy to ultimately Lita falling for Kane and then dumping Kane for edge then Kane’s hunger to avenge was truly worth watching in those golden childhood days .
I agree.. I remember it being one of the most memorable storylines of that time
2000 - 01 Kane was amazing
Slow Chemical Kane - that music was always chilling.
Nice content! You got yourself a new subscriber here
My favorite version of Kane is when he first unmasked. I legit only watched Raw back then to see what type of crazy psychotic shit he’d do next.
2001 Kane deserved the Riyal Rumble that year but well Austin win not bad at all.
1999 royal rumble was wasted on vince
Kane was great despite being so lowballed. ThT guy should have been a long time champ. Just my opinion but when HHH was having his title reign. Kane should have been his number 1 rival
Unmasked Kane was truly terrifying. Best character work and brilliant in ring performer. Truly shined!
I always wish they would have done a corporate Kane with the mask. hat was one they never gave us. Imagine masked Kane coming out with a suit and tie on. Instead he was either fully in Kane Gear or not in it.
While some of the angles he did were pretty shit, his first few runs post-unmasking as this deranged serial killer esque character attacking and tomb-stoning everyone at random was great stuff.
yes, early unmasked slow chemical kane was the best
Ya, for removing his mask I'm sure they had to REALLY write him good, which they had him viciously destroy everyone, which was great!
Anything up to the mask being taken off…when he said SUUUCCKKK ITTT!!! Was the best 🤣🤣🤣
Kane looked more mysterious when he talked less and with his mask on. WWE turned him from a dominant force, psycho, soft emotional timid, less intimidating, comical lame team "HELL NO", to a corporate puppet. This can't be the same Kane I grew up watching, Kane character is destroyed and can't taken serious anymore along with this PG crap.
It’s called character development otherwise he becomes stale
@@ITSHIM1294 character regression
@@ITSHIM1294
Didn't Undertaker have the same gimmick for nearly 20 years straight?
@@calamorta he made changes through the years. Before the American Badass you could see different types of Undertaker in early/mid and late 90’s.
@@kkdb22 not really. If you wanted him to remain the same it would have grown stale as hell. Even he said it. It’s wrestling character 101
But the changes is what made him more than a one dimensional. If he would have stayed a silent monster that would have eventually got stale. The character has to grow.
My favorite wrestler of all time. Always has been and always will be. Thank you, Kane. A phenomenal performer and athlete 🙏🏽♥️🔥
Great video
First version. His character steadily became a joke. I understand his character had to change over the years but to make him a joke of his original self wasn't the way to do it, imo. Anyway, the original Kane had the best costume and scary personality of all the versions of Kane
Bingo
I was scared of this guy more when he didn't talk. He should've had more title runs.
THE FIRST...with respect ...no one ever saw kane and it was amazing to see SOMEONE as tall and could handle the undertaker and love the suit the mask...music,fire, the flat on his back and sitting up when you think hes done......everything ....just intimidating !!!!!! who can forget the "night of destruction".....or "kane's night of destruction".....and by the way my favroite character
Been a huge fan of Kane since his debut. I'd say my personal favorite runs are his 2003 unmasked run and 2010 when he won the world title and destroyed Undertaker for the first time.
Personally, I liked the era where he tagged with X-Pac. Around 2003 I believe, his entrance music was amazing and he was one of the safest workers in the business.
Very true. He was an unselfish company man that didn’t mind putting someone over. As you mentioned, a very safe worker which I’ve read several places.
@Pr0v0ked have u seen the chair shots he gives?
I may have been only 6 years old, but I was soo upset when Kane unmasked. I remember how wild that story was with Lita and Kane it was insanely interesting and very very strange.
B4 he took the mask off I’m taking any one of them the music the suit the strength dude was a BEAST
His 2010 world title run is super underrated. He had an amazing run pretty much beating everyone that challenged him and he defeated Undertaker at 3 PPVs in a row, one of the rare times Taker actually lost a feud.
Haha it’s all fake probably played scissors paper rock to decide who wins
Royal rumble 2001 is the most powerful kane of all time
Best to Worst Kane:
1997-2000(Big Red Monster)
2003-2007(Big Red Demonic Monster)
2000-2003(Big Red Machine)
2012-2014(Big Red Monster Return)
2007-2010 & 2010-2012 & 2014-2017(Big Red Jobber, Minus his run as world heavyweight champion)
2018(his short return and run with Daniel Bryan was ok but wasn’t anything special)
Wasn't Big Red Machine his original nickname, though? I only remember hearing Big Red Monster when he remasked in the 2010s.
@@axebomber2108 i guess but im not sure
I remember as a kid when Kane unmasked in 2003 and went insane, that creeped me the heck out back then, I recall constantly wondering who he was going to go after next.
As for May 19th Kane, at least that version had the hilarious match with Rob Conway and Shawn Michael. I still laugh hysterically at Shawn just sitting on the ropes while Kane destroys Conway and then later when he yells “May 19th” into the mic and leaves it on Conway.
2003 half masked Kane was my favourite. He must have won that title vs mask match against hhh.
I know man, that 03 No Mercy woulda been iconic.
Kane peaked during the intro when he was chained up surrounded by security while Bischoff was pissing himself in the ring, with JR putting him over on commentary as pure evil.
Absolute best Kane we ever got, should've had a yearlong run with the belt but sadly we were still in the latter stages of Triple H's reign of terror at that point
Wow great video
My favorite is the first. No question. I was watching live the night they introduced him. Unreal
After seeing Twitter today, it’s obvious that Mayor Glen Jacobs Kane is hands down the worst version of Kane.
