www.wwe.com/shows/wwemainevent/2014-04-15/kane-attacks-big-showEver since he took the mask off and put a suit on, they've been calling him Corporate Kane and now that he's put the mask back on, every mention of him with the mask on WWE.com, he's named Monster Kane. So is this going to be his deal going forward, switching between Corporate and Monster Kane?

Is there even really a difference?

I'm all right with this. In matches he puts the mask on and is ruthless, behind the scenes in Director of Operations mode he's maskless.

Do not do this WWE. You've earned a lot of good will with the post EC to present booking. You do not want to go down this road.
Then again, I don't see them dragging this out 2 years and it ending with Santino winning the WWE Title.

This will also include his ill advised comedy mid-card character, complete with red and white stripped mask leading his name of Candy Kane.

I wish he had different theme music as Korporate Kane

Can we please introduce, and quickly switch entirely, to Retired Kane? He just brings nothing at all to the table anymore. He's a great talent, can turn crap into gold, and has had a lot of wonderful moments over the years but... Man, I just do not care about Kane these days and he has just been spinning his wheels for years at this point, especially with this awful Corporate Kane nonsense that's killed any shred of a mystique the gimmick had left.

So... they are going to be doing a Jekyll and Hyde deal with Kane now?

I'm bored with Kane. He's like a book I've read 150 times.

I wish Kane would retire. He had a nice little rejuvenation with Bryan and Dr. Shelby, but he's been close to useless for a decade.
Oh boy,the unpredictable monster has been unleashed....I bet he totally f***ing loses most of his big matches.
You know what's worse than a main eventer who beats midcarders? The guys that beat midcarders, only to lose to main eventers. That is essentially Kane's entire career.

I'm digging the new Kane. Serving as an enhancement character that occasionally still wrestles is kind of the role I wish a lot of guys would at the end of their carriers. Not really eating up a spot, not taking all they built and disappearing.

Kane has been part of some really good matches in the past, the not-too-distant past even, and if anyone can get one last good run out of him, it would be Bryan.

If there's one thing I like about Kane, its how he adapts. Monster Kane/Corporate Kane may actually work out for him to keep him fresh. As much as his momentum slows to a crawl every few years, he at least always makes his stranger character directions work. I thought Corporate Kane was going to flop, but he made it work. I'm interested in seeing where this leads.

I might have enjoyed corporate Kane more if they didn't refer to him as corporate Kane

Not really eating up a spot, not taking all they built and disappearing. While this is true, since he loses all the time, he's not really enhancing anyone. It's like Mick Foley and Chris Jericho, beating these guys should mean a lot, but every time they do the 'new guy beats legend' feud, it means less and less. Which leaves Kane as just another authority figure when there are too many of them, and the role as 'authority figure who fights' is taken by HHH so really he's redundant at this point. Right now I'd suggest taking him off TV for a while until there is a place for him, let him train the young guys, especially the bigger ones, as a big man who has gone this long and has made so much work he must have a lot of valuable insights.
