Let's face it, this guy has been around a long ass time.
The whole time he really hasn't done much. He is always the special opponent for someone, and usually has the same predictable match. I can't wait till he retires.

Big Show. At least Kane has the confusing storylines that give me a laugh.

Kane's the only other legitimate star on SmackDown right now outside of Randy Orton. They need him.

And every year around the same time he gets THAT storyline.

He's the veteran that is perpetually over. His matches are serviceable and the Kane/Show tag team has been good for a laugh. He can stick around as long as he wants.

He deserved more than he'd gotten.

He bores the crap out of me, and has done for a long time.

Kane's one of the best big men of all time, and easily the best big man WWE has right now, even in his 40s. He can talk, sell, and seems willing to do whatever the company needs him to do. You never hear a bad word said about him and he stays out of trouble. And most importantly, he's over. WWE will lose a big red asset when he finally does retire.

Do you want a list or something? How about the Dudleyz before the first draft? They didn't split them for giggles, it was because they had done anything they could really do as a tag team, and only really got anyone excited when a table spot was involved. They needed time to refresh.

I am a huge Kane mark, but what other matchups are there for him that haven't been done to death? He's faced Mark Henry before. Sheamus would be interesting, but thats kinda it.

Personally, I'd like for him to start a storyline where someone calls him out about not being a true monster anymore. He "rekindles the flame" and goes back to wearing his mask. Masked Kane hasn't had a feud with really anyone on the roster. Essentially, it would be the same matches, but with a new perspective.

John Cena.
At least Kane changed it up with a totally random heel run every now and then.

I agree The Dudleys were terrible in 2004. I think the same could be said for Booker T.

To spice things up he should become the Big BLUE machine. Keep the same outfit style but just replace the red with blue. Also have the commentators put over just how massive a difference this is and how Kane is completely unstoppable now.

"Has anyone been as stale as Kane?" You mean right now, or in history? Even right now, he's pretty far down the list. Johnny Curtis, anyone?
Maybe, just maybe you'd have a point if you were asking if there had been any bald, tall, masked guy who came here in '97 as stale as Kane. He's been there for a hella long time, so he's pretty much faced everyone and he has a whole lot of mileage under himself. At the same time, he's still good on the mic, and his matches aren't bad; and again, he's hardly the stalest person there at this time, let alone period.

I haven't cared much for Kane since his feud with Undertaker back in 2004, and that was mostly because Taker was coming back as the dead man. It's not that Kane is bad at anything, you just know you're not really going to see anything outstanding when he's involved. His storylines are usually anywhere from bad to mediocre and his matches are too. Still, it's going to be a sad day when he retires because he's been such a reliable guy for so long, and was downright awesome before he lost the mask.

Kane has been around forever, is by all accounts a great guy, can work with anyone, is believable enough to still be a monster threat when called upon, and has no problem putting younger guys over. If you have a guy like that you keep him around, there will be a noticeable void when he hangs it up.

Big Show, for me, has been a lot more boring than Kane.

Before anyone asks, yes there was a rumor that Kane was going to get a green mask when he was teaming with X-Pac in 1999. |
