Not another Benoit Thread

[FourFifty]

So am I the only one who has read the Kane book, Journey Into Darkness? Seriously, no other wrestling fan who I've talked to has read it. It's not great, but it's a good book to read just to pass the time. I like how Kane's legal name in the book is Glen Jacob Callaway. It also gives a nice look into the Katie Vick story line, and how Paul Bearer was able to control The Undertaker and Kane.

















And no, this is NOT another Benoit thread. The title came from Red Hot Scott's thread where he just cut and pasted stuff we already knew.

I see your point, fellow poster.

[McLegend]

You aren't probably the only one who read it.

The law of averages says at least one more person had to read it.

[Impeccable]

Is the book in character (a la half of The Rocks "autobiography") or out of character?

[Theo Dious]

LOL Kane's book is in character? :rofl:

[Xero]

LOL, I completely forgot about Kane's book.

[Kane Knight]

As someone else said, statistically someone else MUST have read it.

But not me.

[Xero]

Even the writer didn't read it. He just mashed the keyboard with his fist and it plopped out.

[Theo Dious]

Even the writer didn't read it. Mark Henry just swallowed a typewriter and it pooped out.

[FourFifty]

It's about the persona, Kane, and how it came to be. Not about Glen Jacobs' life.
Albeit I wouldn't mind seeing Glen Jacobs' autobiography.

I have the perfect title for Glen Jacob's autobiography.

"Fire and Brimestone: How I got screwed for 10 years"

[Theo Dious]

Screwed?

He's been in main events. He's had high-level, long-term programs. He's had major storylines revolve around him. He held the two most prestigious tag team titles at the same time. He's one of the most recognizable wrestlers in the modern era of the business. He's respected as a worker by the majority of fans. And he pretty much has a job for life, or at least as long as he wants it.

If that is being screwed, then I would like to point out that I have a jar of Vaseline and am more than willing to pull down my pants to get me some of that.

...right

[Stickman]

Kane sucks why would I read his book. Also, it's probably the least pushed book the WWE has put out.

[FourFifty]

Its push ranks right up there with the book with Torrie Wilson on the cover that talks about how the WWE are really spys or some crap like that.

Dude, this is an internet wrestling forum. Anyone who hasn't held the main event title of the appropriate show or promotion ten or more times is unappreciated, underpushed, and has been screwed. I'm pretty sure Jacobs himself is pretty satisfied, but the IWC will totally bitch over it.
