I'm actually a little surprised they didn't say Uncle Zebekiah had made his way back.

Love the little nods to their past gimmicks in the cases where they didn't state it outright, especially in the Sultan's description, with a callback to one they covered earlier in the article. If only they'd give us that kind of subtle cleverness in the televised product.

Yankman is my least favorite superhero. (I had like 10 jokes about his ineffectiveness as a hero, but I wasn't sure it'd fly.)
I remember having a VHS of Taker vs. Yankem as a kid. I don't remember where I heard Kane was Yankem, but it really ruined his mystique for me.

They also neglect to mention Fatu's run as Rikishi. Or Kama's run as the Godfather and Papa Shango.

They also neglect to mention Fatu's run as Rikishi. They mentioned who his sons were, and even mentioned that he looked familiar, so I'm thinking most people can connect the dots there. That, and the character was originally named Rikishi Phatu, so it's never really been a secret that Rikishi and Fatu and Making a Difference Fatu were all one and the same.

Yankman is an R rated wrestler and can't appear today.

"demonic dentist" "administered pain"
Tongue-in-cheek, they are all but telling you he's Kane. I thought most of the flavour-text was pretty cleaver, actually.
