Kane finally breaks silence on Triple H taking over role in WWE; says what he really thinks
The Mayor of Knox County, Glenn Jacobs, aka Kane, has always been an important figure in WWE, and he has now spoken about another big name - Triple H. The star spoke about him in a recent interview.
Kane was interviewed by Frank "The Tank" Fleming in his latest episode of Frank Walks and spoke about several things, including WWE and The Game.
Kane has not really said much about Triple H taking over as the WWE Head of Creative, a role that has almost always been held by Vince McMahon. The Knox County Mayor spoke about The Game and complimented him, saying that he had the best wrestling mind of anyone he had ever seen.
"I've been really excited with Triple H as the Head of Creative. He has the best wrestling mind of anybody I've ever seen. With NXT, that was his creation. I think the future is very bright. The model's changed now. It used to be we are traveling all the time and shows all the time. That's not as much nowadays. (...) Now, it's become so much of a TV product."
He said that while those changes had taken place, it had also helped the company and that it was more profitable than ever for WWE. He went on to say that with Triple H as the Head of Creative, the company only had good things to look forward to.
"But you look at on the business side, you look at WWE's revenues, the company's definitely more profitable and it's very healthy and I think on the entertainment side, with Paul Levesque as the creative driver, there's a lot of really good things that will happen in the future with the company."
Kane has spoken about a potential return to WWE under Triple H
While Kane has said previously that he will likely never get in the ring again, the star has also kept some hope alive, not denying it outright.
"I am probably not getting in the ring. I watch it now and I'm amazed at how athletic everybody is. I don't think my body can take that kind of punishment anymore, you know? We always say, 'Never say never.' So, I leave the door open to many different things."
It would be interesting to see what would happen should The Big Red Machine return and what role he would have in The Game's WWE.
