I haven't. To me he'll always be a second rate fighter who only got a title shot because of his skin tone.

I'm a big fan of the guy. Good big man, model employee backstage, and not afraid to put others over.
Wrestling needs more guys like him

I'm gonna go with "A whole lot of people" and leave it at that.
In fact he's been one of the more consistently over people they've had for many years now. Never the top guy, but very consistent with the crowd.

He's pretty much always been completely awesome.
He has a strong connection to the crowd, especially considering he's been in some terrible storylines and has gone from face to heel so many times it's hard to keep track of.
His WHC run was completely awesome, I will hear nothing bad about it. Dude bulked up and got into crazy shape, and was completely dominant for months. Plus he actually was portrayed as being a big deal again, "The Devil's Favorite Demon" and all that.
So I am hoping against hope this run is as good as it seems it'll be.

who only got a title shot because of his skin tone.  I stopped really giving a crap about Kane after his initial heel run when he lost the mask. But his return last night was pretty damn awesome, and going back to a mask is a good decision. |

Kane has always been and will always be one of my all time favorites. Top 10 for me personally.

I'm gonna take a guess and say the OP is an obscure reference that nobody (including myself) gets.
I specialize in those, I should know.

I loved his initial run after he lost the mask and was lead to the ring in chains and shackles, and I've loved every match and interaction he had with Rey Mysterio. I even liked his stuff against Drew McIntyre back when almost everyone was pooping on Drew. Kane's always been awesome, sometimes more awesome than others(due to bad booking and never to Kane I think), but always fun.

The bigotry towards charred skin people in this thread is disgusting and I won't stand for it.
Absolutely disgraceful.

I think the OP is quoting Rocky. That's kind of his gimmick here.

Kane is probably one of the few guys in wrestling history to get a big ovation every time he returns.
I mean, dude survived a storyline where it was implied he did necrophilia, for pete sake. In that regard, Kane's the greatest of all time.

Hold on, isn't that a Rocky V reference...?
Either which way, Ryushinku - giving a damn about Kane since 1997.

I've always liked Kane. Obviously depending what his character is like at the time sometimes I like him more and I usually do. Like in 2003 after his unmasking he was awesome and winning the World Title last year I marked out hard.
