Kane is one of very few characters in history to survive multiple joke runs and able to work both babyface and heel to perfection. He is truly the definition of a complete wrestler. Able to be funny, scary, serious hell even Corporate Kane was funny
You forgot when Kane tombstoned Linda McMahon and made HBK vomit blood with a chair choke. Masked Kane was an immovable object but 2003-4 unmasked Kane was wicked to the bone marrow.
Guy was in the business for over 20 years. Never once did anyone talk negative about him, he had no beef with anyone. He was never injured, he was always putting other guys over and never complained or used backstage politics to hold others down. He never talks bad about anyone who he worked with and has nothing but nice things to say about the company and all his colleagues that he worked with over the years. He is humble and really intelligent and very well spoken. He did all that whilst being 1 of the most iconic and badass characters in the history of the business. Guys like him and Undertaker are a completely different breed of superstar for sure
@@scorpion6328 sad but true. All wrestlers should aspire to be like undertaker and kane, both as performers and as human beings. They are just great men
There's one you forgot. You might not necessarily expect this, but Glenn Jacobs is an extremely intelligent guy. Watch any interview with him where he talks about things other than wrestling -- especially about economics and politics. The guy is a legit Austrian Economics nerd. It's genuinely impressive how knowledgeable he is about the subject. I've even heard Daniel Bryan admit that Kane is the smartest guy he knows.
Kane, a true childhood hero of mine. Just overall a great human being. I am happy to say that I am actually proud of him and what he was able to accomplish in his career in and outside of wrestling.
I had a smile watching this whole video, Kane is in my top 5 and along with undertaker and Goldberg were the reasons I even became a wrestling fan Would love to see Taker and Goldberg videos next
Kane is a 7 foot monster. Kane has under rated mic skills. I think he was more disturbing without the mask. He electrocuted Shane's family jewels with a car battery and tombstoned Linda Mac on the ramp.
He wasn't though. He was a main eventer at many points. It's just that back then not having the title didn't mean you weren't a main attraction. Kane regularly dumpstered Triple H, The Rock, Undertaker etc. on segments. He made jobbers out of the whole roster at times when he cleaned the ring. It was his thing pretty much.
Great video, I love Kane and I can’t wait for the eventual Edge and Undertaker videos. Also myself and many other Smarkbusters fans would love to see these videos. 50 reasons why Dave Meltzer sucks, 50 reasons why Kenny Omega sucks, 50 reason why Riddle sucks and 50 reasons why Women’s Wrestling sucks.
May get some hate but I think he should've won it in 2003 in the mask vs title match, then gone through with removing the mask heel run from there. Would've been epic to see Goldberg end that run.
@@tcbbctagain572 Kane was never meant to win the 01 Rumble. There is literally nothing that has ever said that. Also never put anyone over? So did Unforgiven 2001 just never happen?
I’m 6 minutes into this video and I absolutely love this. Kane has always been my favourite wrestler. So this was a treat for me. I’m glad you mentioned X pac and Kane’s tag team storyline.
The guy also was able to do all the Undertaker signature moves because he was his brother and added his own stuff. Taker was already a legend when Kane arrived. And yes JR saying through hell fire and brimstone is him at his best! JR is War!!
Fun fact: the reason kane use to use that unique powerbomb as a finisher was to make it reminiscent of the undertaker’s last ride powerbomb since he was his brother
In storyline Undertaker taught the last ride to Kane at the cost of Kaientai. They powerbombed them time and time again to practice 😂 They did a comedy segment with the scariest wrestlers of the roster and they still looked cool and scary afterwards.
But they decided to give it the great khali instead now personally i like khali but they could of either booked his title reign better or they could of gave to Kane or Back to Batista
2003 unmasked Kane was a monster. Chokeslam Eric Bischoff off the stage, Tombstone Linda McMahon on the stage, Lighting JR on fire, Electrocutes Shane’s nuts lol
Unrelated to the video but an actual Meltzer quote is that "AEW is like Attitude Era WWF. You have Moxley who is Austin, MJF who is equal to The Rock and Cody Rhodes whos like Triple H".
The marketable reason was spot on, I remember used to do commercials for a variety of things, the best one was the chef boyardee ones and what kid wouldn’t want to have an attitude era Kane action figure
Old School Kane would slaughter this entire roster in ten minutes. His fireball angle with Chyna was probably one of my favorites. They were both STACKED. Chyna should have definitely stayed with Kane a little longer.
Thanks for the video about Kane because there was special about him when i notice him. The old school kane was badass back then. If were talking about old school it would have to be 1998 - 2001 Kane. His character was so scary and someone who could beat your. dead ass. What i like about him is he comes out walking slowly with the old school theme and fixes his glove while Jim Ross is screaming bloody mary his name. One of my favorite storylines with Kane is him and his brother (Undertaker). Not only i love the storyline but i also love the feud between them. He was still badass during the ruthless aggression era days when he was around. Until In the Pg Era WWE ruined Kane. This man have different was Corporate Kane and join the authority. He was in a team with Daniel Bryan called "Team Hell No" (which is one of the worst tag teams). In everyone's opinion i think we all know that old Kane was way better than the Pg Kane, but he still cool and i'm glad he's in the Hall of Fame.
An awesome video once again, guys. Also, Can you guys make a 50 reasons why Goldberg is awesome video? Dude gets a lot of shit on the internet from smarks.
I love Kane's 2nd wave of pyro when Kane raises his arms and hands up and slams them down causing his pryo to appear in the four corners around the ring, it jumpscares so many people in the WWE audience! So awesome yet so frightening and scary all at the same time!
Good shit, Kane came over to Puerto Rico back when it was a developmental and choke slammed Hugo Savinovich in the ring, that alone warrants fucking praise from all of us.
Funny thing is: Meltzer always praise Omega and bashes Kane and still everyone knows who Kane is... unlike the other one.

Kane walking down with a black towel on his head, chained up and security surrounding him is my favorite entrance of all time.
He’s an absolute legend. One of the most iconic characters in wrestling history

He was never injured, he was always putting other guys over and never complained or used backstage politics to hold others down.

To rip off one of the comments on this video, there will never be another Kane and Undertaker in pro wrestling. Especially in THIS age of wrestling.
@@scorpion6328 sad but true. All wrestlers should aspire to be like undertaker and kane, both as performers and as human beings. They are just great men
@@scorpion6328 Now we have Daymon Prince Fergal.
Kane sacrificed himself to elevate Undertaker and make the streak relevant single handedly with that deadman returns feud
When I was little watching the attitude Era Kane was probably the coolest looking wrestler ever.

oh right right remember that game show deal or no deal that he was on?

@@IvanTheHeathen oh thanks it's been so long since I've seen that episode with the wwe lol

Would love to see Taker and Goldberg videos next
Kane could easily got 9-10 title runs without anyone questioning why
I always loved the way Kane would exit the ring backwards it looked so cool
Kane is pretty underrated now that I think about it
Kane is a 7 foot monster. Kane has under rated mic skills. I think he was more disturbing without the mask. He electrocuted Shane's family jewels with a car battery and tombstoned Linda Mac on the ramp.
Crazy to think Kane was a mid-carder. That's how stacked the roster used to be.
He wasn't though. He was a main eventer at many points. It's just that back then not having the title didn't mean you weren't a main attraction.

50 reasons why Dave Meltzer sucks,
50 reasons why Kenny Omega sucks,
50 reason why Riddle sucks
and 50 reasons why Women’s Wrestling sucks.
It's a crime Kane never had one good world title run during his prime
Smarks hate Cena for burying talent, yet they praise Stone Cold. Let that sink in...
May get some hate but I think he should've won it in 2003 in the mask vs title match, then gone through with removing the mask heel run from there. Would've been epic to see Goldberg end that run.
@@elgusaniiiodeljuego6823 Stone Cold never buried a single person. GTFO
The fact that Seth Rollins has more world title reigns than Kane is Insane to me
@@tcbbctagain572 Kane was never meant to win the 01 Rumble. There is literally nothing that has ever said that. Also never put anyone over? So did Unforgiven 2001 just never happen?
Kane use to scare me back in the day. 2001 he was a beast! He honestly is great and deserved his Hall of Fame induction in front of a live crowd.
I don't care what y'all say. Slow Chemical was his best theme song, although all his theme songs were 🔥.
I’m 6 minutes into this video and I absolutely love this. Kane has always been my favourite wrestler. So this was a treat for me. I’m glad you mentioned X pac and Kane’s tag team storyline.
51. The way old school kane exit the ring.
I wish that one day we could get a 50 reasons why there awesome on edge, Brock Lesnar, and Goldberg
The guy also was able to do all the Undertaker signature moves because he was his brother and added his own stuff. Taker was already a legend when Kane arrived. And yes JR saying through hell fire and brimstone is him at his best! JR is War!!
Finger Eleven made the best theme song for Kane! No doubt about it! I freaking love it!
Kane should have been Undertakers last match.
There will never be another Kane and the undertaker.
Two goats🐐🐐 screw UA-cam for deleting my comment

Undertaker being in a vegetative state like a plant was a crisp storyline
That Wrestlemania 20 video package always scared me as a kid lmao but it's one of my favorite builds/streak match
2:00 wrong slow chemical is great
My all time favorite. I always played as Kane when we were wrestling as kids with my friends.
Kane should’ve won the world heavyweight champion battle royal after edge vacated in 2007
But they decided to give it the great khali instead now personally i like khali but they could of either booked his title reign better or they could of gave to Kane or Back to Batista
Agreed
Kane is an undisputed badass, and every time he would come out, especially in the late 90s, you knew shit was gonna go down
Kane has been through many lows in his career and still managed to maintain believability. What a legend.
2003 unmasked Kane was a monster. Chokeslam Eric Bischoff off the stage, Tombstone Linda McMahon on the stage, Lighting JR on fire, Electrocutes Shane’s nuts lol
Met him before. Legend
Lefty and Righty should be the commentators on WWE Dynamite.
Kane with hair was something else man.
Unrelated to the video but an actual Meltzer quote is that "AEW is like Attitude Era WWF. You have Moxley who is Austin, MJF who is equal to The Rock and Cody Rhodes whos like Triple H".
😂😂 Meltzer is so delusional
Thank you for giving Kaane some love
Kane in the 90s was a beast!
You forgot to mention Concessions Kane
Kane is cool
Freaks are cool
Freaks kick ass
Kane is in my wrestling forum Fave 5
Next 50 reasons why Brock lesnar is cool,the guy is so underappreciated in my opinion
He's has the personality of an amoeba.
I love Kane's pyro at the beginning of his entrance, it always gives people jumpscares in the WWE audience! So frightening and scary!

Kane is one of my favorite WWE wrestlers from the Attitude Era and Ruthless Aggression Era! 100%!
i won a costume contest when i was like 8 for a handmade kane costume for halloween, kane is indeed cool.
If Glenn Jacobs ran for president would you vote for him? I would
The big red president will chokeslam all who don’t vote for him 😎
Absolutely. Every interview I’ve seen of him, I’ve been impressed. Extremely intelligent dude.
#49 Kane and RVD were awesome and RVD giving him hungry hungry hippos was bad ass
The least selfish guy to step in the sports entertainment business

I remember buying Kane’s gloves and knee pad just because it had Kane on it when I was a kid
He had a Goat eye

I Agree Dave is horrible

I would gladly go back to early 2000s and before to watch Kane than anything in modern wrestling
