The Dames 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2003 I have a feeling that I'm going to be crucified for my Kane commentary...but I'm curious as to what you guys thought about it. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MrRant Report post Posted July 16, 2003 I haven't read it yet. But it sucks. Since you are sure you will be crucified... might as well complain without going through the effort of reading it. What the hell is with the line breaks? That is the most irritating thing in the goddamn world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 16, 2003 Half way through, but one note: Taker INTENTIONALLY torched the place. He admitted it in 1998, after about 30000000000 twists and turns in the "who burned the place down" storyline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vyce Report post Posted July 16, 2003 On a more serious note, after reading the article, I believe you've put more thought into the Kane story than the WWE writers ever have. I mean, c'mon, who here doesn't believe they write the show on a cocktail napkin an hour before the curtain rises? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted July 16, 2003 I thought that it was a good read. It seemed like you put more thought into the whole angle then the WWE writers. The only question that I have is this: how would you explain where Kane learned to wrestle? During the Katie Vick angle, Kane mentioned that he was just starting in the business when Katie died.

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 16, 2003 . All these years, he's never looked in the mirror...afraid of the image that will come back at him and has always tried to keep his face hidden, even going so far as to throw dirt and gunk on it to conceal it from himself, which is why everyone such as DX and Jim Ross were scared of his “real” face when he was unmasked. But what about Ausin last week? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bravesfan Report post Posted July 16, 2003 Taker INTENTIONALLY torched the place. He admitted it in 1998, after about 30000000000 twists and turns in the "who burned the place down" storyline. Did he admit it as a babyface (January - July) or heel (August - November)? The only gaping plothole I've been confused with about this storyline were how heels reacted to an unmasked Kane from 1997-2002, especially when it's now revealed to be psychological damage. You do begin to explain it well, but it leaves a bit to be desired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ANKLELOCK 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2003 I'm a relatively new WWE fan(started in 2001), so I dont know what minor plot twists you missed. It was an entertaining read none the less. Keep doing the column,though, as I'm sure you'll get some less bizarre thing to write about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest HartFan86 Report post Posted July 16, 2003 One thing....the logic gap about the hair thing is still there. Other people can take Kane's mask off and the hair doesn't come off, but when he does, it comes off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bravesfan Report post Posted July 16, 2003 The week that Bearer joined him again. October? If Percy's character is willing to take the fall for everything, you can say that UT was brainwashed by Bearer to admit that, just so they (UT & Kane) would always be at each other's throats. (Bearer secretly sabotaging UT?) I don't know; just a suggestion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LJSexay Report post Posted July 16, 2003 Methinks the heels that have seen him unmasked may have seen him with all that gunk and soot on his face, the way we first saw him.
