Kane leaving WWE?
As first reported last night by The Honky Tonk Man on his official website, there are rumors going around that Kane has given his notice to WWE due to a major contract dispute.
We do know that Honky Tonk Man still does talk to numerous people associated with wrestling and this could be a legit story. It could also be a publicity stunt for website views. We are trying to confirm this story and hope to have information regarding it at some point today. Wrestlingplanet.com |

Yeah I read that earlier.
For the moment i'm taking it with a pinch of salt as i've heard nothing from any credible source. Although Honky Tonk does still have conacts within the WWe, so I really don't know what to think, but I wouldn't of thought that they would let him go, as he would be TNA/Japan bound within minutes of his release and that would be exactlly the type of guy Jarrett could use to get TNA more over |

He could feud with Abyss in TNA.
Anyway, although I wish he wouldn't go, I don't blame him. WWE has treated Kane like shit over the years. |

I dont believe it... He's one of Vince's main guys... And we all know his big man fetish... Right now, I'll believe that it's a publicity stunt...

Kane going to TNA could be something that TNA might need. Just think about it....people tune into the Victory Road ppv to see what has been said that The Outsiders Return....then suddenly the arena goes black and red gets shown and Kane comes out and chokeslams the crap out of everyone. I would be marking out like crazy.

Until someone other than the Honky Tonk Man reports it, I ain't beleiving sh>it. My instinct is that even if there is a "major contract dispute" between Kane and WWE, it'll be in the best interest of both parties to settle it. Kane is a serious asset to WWE in any way, and Glen Jacobs would be virtually useless to anyone else, as he'll never be allowed to take the Kane gimmick with him.

I am hoping Kane doesn't leave, but how would you not want the man to get more respect and better storylines. I don't really believe this as Kane is one of the big home-grown wrestlers but it should be known by the next PPV or even tonight for signs that he could be leaving.
Signs like Kane coming out and saying to Snitsky, "I don't feel like killing you anymore. I have to go to my home planet now. Bye." Or a replacement (ala Fake Razor, etc) or the WWE's way of showing a wrestler is leaving: banish him from our existence and never even mention he was around (Noble??? who's that?). |

kane will not go to TNA.
ome on guys, lets be realisitic! TNA don't have money for kane, and kane would not be well suited for TNA If Kane leaves (which i think he very well might do), he will go into movies. He is already looking at doing that eye scream man movie, so if he does well..morem ovies could b on the horizon |

What do you mean "Kane would not be well suited for TNA." What? What doesn't make him suited for the promotion. As far as I'm concerned, if this story is true, which I don't think ir is BTW, then TNA should do everything in their power to get Kane. Imagine him showing up to Battle the Outsiders Faction. He would be the #1 guy in that company without a doubt.

The problem is that if Glen Jacobs leaves for TNA, he can't use the Kane name, which is owned by WWE. He probably can't use Big Red Machine, either. And he can't very well fall back on his other personas: Unabomer. Isaac Yankem DDS. Fake Diesel. Christmas Creature. And, well, Glen Jacobs just isn't a good commando name ... I mean, wrestler name.

frankly, i've seen bugger all of TNA, but i would have no idea how kane would fit into it. i mean, Kane/glen jacobs VS Jeff jarrett, ron killings, AJ styles. He's LEAPS and bounds above everyone else in that company except maybe raven |

I don't really know what you mean by "leaps and bound," but if your saying he's greater then everyone else in terms of star power, then that's exactly why he should go to TNA. Don't you want a World Champion that is greater then everyone else so that when your building one of your young guys in TNA, you have him go over Kane and it makes the young guy look huge. Simple wrestling logic.

but why would glen jacobs want that. why would he want to work in a sub-rank fed, run on a shoe string, who has just lost one of their main and probably most talented writers (vince russo)? Their are so many complexities to this, but basically, i would see no logical reason is kane WANTING to join TNA (as it is a lower ranked fed and he would recieve a pay cut.) |

If money is the issue, and if Kane really is leaving (Again, which I dont believe), he should go to Japan... As far as I've heard, they pay big money for appearences... I heard that a promotion offered Hogan $50,000 for one match... I may have that way wrong, maybe it was $5,000-$15,000, but still, Japan will take basicly any big name...

Like people have said if Kane went to TNA he wouldn't be able to use the Kane gimmick. I personally don't think this rumour is true.

i'd say kane would have been on the most raw ep's in a row.
HHH missed a few last year (and when he was injured), when was the last ep that kane missed? maybe only J2Y has been on more in a row |

He missed like 6 months due to an injury I think of his shoulder. He came back when Booker T and Goldust were trying to stop the UnAmerican's from burning the American flag. His promo advertising his return came up on the TitanTron and as Test was about to burn the flag, Kane's pyro and music hit and he came out. Definitely one of the most memorable mark out moments I have ever had when it comes to an entrance.

TNA brins in Kane they can call him Cain.
![]() Or something ending in an "ane" sound like Bane. Or. Lame. Then they can have Low Ki play Kane's son from the future. ![]() |

I hope Kane stays in WWE, but if he was to go to TNA, you just let him act like a maniacal son of a bithc like he acts right now, and his name will be the last things fans will care about. Sure, a good name is important, but you can always find a replacement.

Glen Jacobs will never leave WWE for low pay, that's stupid. Glen Jacobs has a huge passion for the wrestling bussiness like everyone else. I swear Jacobs doesn't care about money or the fame, he'll be with WWE for a long time. It's just a stupid rumor and lies flying around. I hate the Honky Tonk Man.

It seems like a load of crap to me.
Kane is one of those guys that seems to have a job for life, if he wants it. Yeah they could get into a disagreement over a new contract, but ultimately I cant see Kane going anywhere else. Plus, dont forget the WWE has a Film project that Kane is set to star in, so it would seem unlikely he would up and leave over a few thousand dollars. However, stranger things have happened, and if he became available obviously TNA would be advised to pick him up fast. He's a legit superstar from WWE TV, and they could make a claim that people are looking at leaving the WWE to go to where "the big boys play", wait thats WCW, well whatever their slogan is insert it here. Yeah he cant use the name Kane, but heck just call him Abel or Lucifer or the Red Monster or whatever. Its not difficult. Its like with Hall and Nash, nobody cared they weren't called Razor and Diesel, we knew who they were, and thats all that mattered. We'll know one way or the other if and when Kane faces Snitski at TT. If Kane does a quicky job, then the rumours are true, of he squashes him, like they are building to, then we know Kane is still WWE 4 Life. |

Kanes not going anywhere..."HEY KANE WHERE YOU GOING, NOWHERE, FUCKING NOWHERE" (rep for the reference there)
Kane is taking time off soon to film the movie "Eye Scream Man". He'll probably job at TT, having Snitsky injure him and put him on the shelf. Kane comes back, a face getting revenge on Snitsky. Maybe by the time Kane comes back, V-OOONNNEEUUUUHHH will be back, leading to some good TV. |

I hope Kane stays in the WWE, for that sake. He's Kane, and he can't be Kane anywhere else. But if Glen Jacobs did leave the WWE, I'd wish him the best, and I think TNA would be the best place for Jacobs other than RAW.
BTW, I think "Jacob" might make an interesting name if Glen went to TNA. Maybe he could wear a mask, or claim to be some kind of 'Prodigy of Pain" or somehting? |
