I meant to post this on Monday, but have been tied up with some legal issues and getting 'Tin ready for year two of High School!
There seems to be a lot of fan interest in a KANE DVD and in his holding a the WWE title for more than a day . . . more than ususal, ya know, it seems we've been sking these questions for as long as we've been Kane fans! The following is from PWInsider X-tra, and I like the way the fan phrases things:
XTRA Q&A: KANE AS CHAMPION AND HALL OF FAMER [...]

I personally think that Kane has been one of the most underappreciated and underutilized talents in the WWE that I can recall. He's a very talented (in-ring anyway, not so much on the mic) wrestler who has managed to stay over with the fans as long as he has, yet he's never seemed to get big pushes outside of feuds with Taker.
He's had to put up with crappy storyline after crappy storyline, nonsensical and unexplained face/heel turns, botched or poorly thrown-together booking and feuds, and years of listening to the announcers refer to him as the big ugly monster. Yet I never hear of him complaining and he has stayed loyal to the company that has misused him so badly.
My question is, to make up for the horrid misuse and neglect, do you see any chance of Kane ever seeing a REAL championship reign (not another joke like his 1-day fiasco a few years back)? He always seems to be in feuds with main-eventers, but never in the main event and I think he's more than deserving of one good run with the belt. Sure he may have the mic skills of Matt Hardy, but it isn't like Chris Benoit, Batista, and Rey Mysterio are any better and they've had title runs.
What about a Hall of Fame induction? I think he deserves it if for no other reason than his years of dedication and for being such a good sport about Creative's awful misuse of him. "
'
I don't know about a lengthy title reign, but I do believe he will receive another title run at some point, likely similar to Mick Foley's runs, which were more a lifetime achievement deal than the WWF expecting him to carry the company long-term. I do believe he'll end up in the Hall of Fame as well. He's been a good soldier and has done everything he's ever been asked. '

Now, I like that these people are FOR Kane - they'd like to see him in
meatier storylines, with more worthy opponents and REAL pushes, AND they'd like to see him have a substantial title run. I like the contemplation of KANE being a HOF too!
But I take issue a bit to the way they make him sound like a good little boy! >:|
