For many years Kane was one of the most feared individuals on the WWE roster, and his mask played a big role in creating his intimidating persona.
But in 2003 WWE decided to make a drastic change to Kane’s character when his mask was removed, and it altered the course of his career forever.
Kane opened up about the unmasking while speaking to Steve Austin on Broken Skull Sessions, and he revealed that he has some regrets about how his hair turned out.
“I actually was a little nervous, though, because I hadn’t told my wife about this, and my wife loved my long hair, and I wanted her to see it and be shocked just like everybody else, and she was. So, when I talked to her after the match, that didn’t go very well.”
“And they get about halfway through, and Bruce [Prichard] goes ‘Stop! I need to show Vince,’ I should have said right then keep going, and of course in the heat of the moment I’m like oh yeah, this is going to be awesome, and then yeah, I’m sitting there like, wait a second, I got to go to like…Outback, with this, I got to pick my kids up at school.”
The full episode featuring Kane’s appearance on Broken Skull Sessions will debut after NXT TakeOver: Blackpool II on Sunday.
