Saw him live several times. Dude was a throwback to the hardcore icons of old. Now that I think about it, he should be a Wyatt member. The one that is super violent and crazy as fuck.

You shouldn't be allowed to dress yourself in a mask, long sleeves, long pants, and wear gloves for a First Blood match. And his other two world title wins are sneaking up behind a midget and cashing in MITB on another midget.

Kane is an asshole. The big red asshole

Look pal, considering they never booked him as a champ on the occasions where he was red hot and over with the crowd he had to sneak in some title reigns by dubious means, he went into business for himself.

I always thought it was super sad that he wasn't able to parlay the attention he got from The Wrestler into anything bigger for his career - was happy to see him cut out the hardcore stuff and fall into an enforcer role for ROH, but that didn't last too long. But, from what I gather, Necro sounds like a fairly self destructive individual (as if that wasn't obvious from his deathmatch shit), but at least he'll get a retirement match.

Yeah, he at least showed that he could do traditional wrestling, even if he wasn't that great at it.

If he was in his prime now, I bet WWE would give him a shot.

Friend, believe me when I say this: I appreciate a good shooter, but Kane? He ain't a good shooter. He had the perfect opportunity to main event wrestlemania in 2001, putting on a phenomenal hour long performance in a rumble match that puts Roman Reigns to shame. But what does he do? He falls at the final hurdle instead of going into to business for himself and eliminating Austin. Kane is stronger than Brock Lesnar, so there's nothing Austin could have done if Kane wanted him over that top rope. And if he had eliminated Austin, Austin wouldn't have turned heel, the two man power trip wouldn't have formed, Triple H wouldn't have torn his quad, Vince wouldn't have pulled the trigger on the invasion until they got the biggest WCW stars, and it's entirely possible we'd still be in a golden era of pro wrasslin' popularity.

Kane, I would argue, caused more damage to this industry than any one individual. The real question is, was it intentional?

I'm just going to assume if pressing play worked I'd bear witness to the overdrive so really we lucked out here.

Stone Cold could sense Kane's hunger for victory so he walloped him legit with the steel chair to keep his spot, that wily rattlesnake.

They made the best call in a long time turning her heel. I don't even know if people remember her going on about being an inspiration to young girls it was so bad.

charlotte has the same exact "condescending talking down to" intonation that steph has in all of her promos

i feel like that persona is played out at this point

Hawk v Droz has been the best fight so far. Very nice strong hits, loved the sportsmanship between them in the end. Damn, I'm ready for it again next year

haven't watched Smackdown since he joined commentary until today, I'm really liking Mauro Ranallo, he actually calls moves and sounds excited about the action in the ring. ... talking about the match, not some other crap, it's like, actual wrestling commentary. in WWE. in 2016.

surprised McMahon hired him.

I'm probably late to the party here, but what is everyone impressions on the Monday Night Wars documentary? I just finished and I wonder what people think about it.
