NYDN - The Big Red Political Machine.

WWE’s Kane will go from choke-slamming opponents to running for office. WCYB is reporting that Glenn Jacobs, known as Kane, will be looking to become the next mayor of Knox County, Tennessee.

The wrestler filed paperwork and is identifying as a republican. He’s been living in Tennessee since 1995.

“The Big Red Machine” has been absent from WWE recently after being a mainstay the previous two decades.

Bah gawd, it’s Kane! It’s Kane! As god as my witness, he’s running for mayor!

On the real, Kane is the wrestler that got me hooked on WWE. The first time I saw his pyro go off, when he was at his peak, he was terrifying. They wrote his character so awesome, they made him a legit monster, and it was before the internet so you never saw him without his mask on. Kane at his peak was one of those characters that was just like when you watch any other TV show- you know it’s “fake”, but it’s done so well that you couldn’t help but to be mesmerized every time he was on screen.

And now the Big Red Machine is running for mayor because the natural progression from WWE legend is politics. When he’s not participating in Inferno Matches

apparently he’s backstage reading up on political philosophy.

Blaze - “If the Republican Party were to get back to its principles — which are essentially libertarian, which means individual liberty and economic freedom — they would offer something completely different than what they do now and … what the democrats do,” he told Loesch.

Just typical stuff you’d expect from a guy whose face was burned in a house fire where his parents were killed and then grew up in a mental asylum.

First Linda McMahon joined the Trump administration, and now Kane is jumping into politics. It won’t be long until the Rock is governor of California.
