Guest muswp1 Report post Posted April 9, 2002 This thread is real simple, the WWF should not unmask Kane unless they have lots of creative and believeable excuses why he isn't scarred. It is a guarentee that if Kane gets unmasked, his charactor will be dead by Summerslam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted April 9, 2002 It's kind of like something someone said about Flair: "They're selling the airplane crash again. To tell you the truth, if Flair hasn't gotten over a broken back in more than 20 years, he's got bigger problems." Five years is enough belivable time to heal any wounds, plus all anyone has to do is get on the internet for 5 minutes to find his Issac Yankem and Fake Diesel roles. Might as well while there's still mark-out potential. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted April 9, 2002 if kane gets unmasked it fucks up years and years of storylines and glen jacobs isn't exciting. i'm just waiting for something tramatic to happen to kane and he reverts back to his darkside nonspeaking self Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tony149 Report post Posted April 9, 2002 I've said it before and I'll say it again. Unless the writers have a great, can't miss gimmick for Kane, his character and career will be dead. The "Kane" gimmick has been the only successful gimmick he's ever had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest midnight_burn Report post Posted April 9, 2002 The mask is the only thing that makes Kane unique right now. Without it he's just another generic big man, no different than Test or someone like that. So unless the writers have a good gimmick or idea to go with losing the mask, i think he should keep it on.

Guest Mystery Eskimo Report post Posted April 9, 2002 Kane has been painted into a corner really...I don't see there is anything they can do with him other then go on with his current gimmick. Glen Jacobs would just be immensly dull. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kane got them in kayfabe when he was little and has had them forever. Why would he be healed Now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest nl5xsk1 Report post Posted April 9, 2002 I'd like it if someone like a Raven (or Paul E. or the Sinister Minister or a returning Paul Bearer) got his hands on Kane ... helped him realize that the scars were mental all along, put in there when he was a kid. It would explain why he's not scarred at all. Make him a sympathetic good guy, who eventually has the "evil" manager turn on him and burn him ... then the mask goes back on.

Guest muzanisa Report post Posted April 9, 2002 When the Creative team came up with the character of Kane they apparently bought a Hollywood prosthetic burns make up kit. If they did an unmasking with that and then let him get back to the mask it might be an interesting but ultimately pointless angle. I wonder if Glen and the masked guys get ring rats?

Guest DrEvil Report post Posted April 9, 2002 Kane unmasked = BikerTaker part 2 Kane's no selling works right now because he's an inhuman monster, the mask is what makes him that. Take the mask off and you've got another generic big man who no sells for no reason other than he's a big man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BaldGhoti Report post Posted April 9, 2002 Kane's no selling works right now because he's an inhuman monster, the mask is what makes him that. Take the mask off and you've got another generic big man who no sells for no reason other than he's a big man. So he's evolving his character out of the cheesy 80's "I AM A NO-SELLING MONSTAR!!~!" personality. I think it's far more embarassing to point to Kane and say, "He's a WWF wrestler" when he's wearing a mask. The mask gimmick really has to be a short-term gimmick to work well (like the Los Conquistadores gimmick E+C used a year or so back). Same goes for any 1980's cheesy gimmicks. Of course, I still think Perry Saturn should have thought he was a pirate during his "head injury" angle, so what do I know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Risk Report post Posted April 9, 2002 really don't like the Kane gimmick. It is to damn cartoonish. Glen Jacobs IS talented and needs a better gimmick to get over with. No, I don't mean Issac Yankeem either. I would like a shoot, maybe with JR as interviewer, wherre Jacobs talks about all his bad gimmicks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted April 10, 2002 Maybe they should have him do like Jason in Friday the 13th Part II and have him go around with a burlack sack over his head until he gets his mask back. God, I don't even like Friday the 13th either, I need to stop reading about and watching these movies... Another dumb attempt to be funny: Kane is unmasked, Kevin Nash looks at him and mouths, "Oh my God... it's... ME!" and runs off. Because of all those chairshots, Kane's BRAINS GET SCRAMBLED~! and he thinks he really IS Kevin Nash. God, I need to stop reading about these Russo angles, it's really messing with my head.

Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted April 10, 2002 As for Kane in general, I really didn't care much for him before, I mean he was cool, but his matches were terrible. I actually think its interesting though how they have to build him up now since he's technically the second-biggest face on RAW, after Austin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest muswp1 Report post Posted April 10, 2002 I think Kane could have a chance to get over with his personality, if I thought for one second the WWF would have a clue of what to do with him besides bury him next to Test, Albert, etc... The "Freaks are Cool" gimmick might have a chance of working but not without the mask. Then Kane becomes ordinary and dead soon after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Risk Report post Posted April 10, 2002 I REALLY don't want to have to put up with the stupid "Kane is burnt" angle. It REALLY insults the fans' intelligence. I think it would be funny if Diesel 2.0(Jacobs) came back to fight the NWO. He could do it to get into Nash's head. The gimmick and the fire should go, mask or no mask is okay, though.

Guest DieCastGod Report post Posted April 10, 2002 "I think it would be funny if Diesel 2.0(Jacobs) came back to fight the NWO. He could do it to get into Nash's head." I would love to see it especially if they used Diesel's old music with the truck horn. Of course Nash would probably have a shit fit and kill the idea but it would be awesome.
