10 Most Uncharismatic WWE World Champions Of The Last 20 Years

10. Kane

For the sake of this entry, let's view Kane as two entirely separate characters: Masked Kane and Unmasked Kane. Masked Kane was truly terrifying, intimidating, versatile and at times surprisingly humorous. Unmasked Kane was dull and downright unbelievable.

Don't get me wrong, Kane was - and still somewhat is - a cool character. Glenn Jacobs' portrayal of the original Kane was some of the most enjoyable stuff WWE has ever produced. However, there's a clear reason why Kane's career has never been able to reach the peaks of his earlier days since his unmasking.

A lot of Kane's character revolved around being a mysterious masked burns victim who had a genuine reason to be so spiteful. By the time he won the World Heavyweight Championship in 2010, the factors that allowed Kane to be so charismatic - the lack of speech, facial expressions and mechanical movement - had been replaced by over-the-top displays of aggression to make him appear threatening.

They didn't work.

Unlike when he devastated the WWE locker room in the late 1990s or entertained fans with some comedic relief in the early 2000s, Unmasked Kane was a generic monster that failed to click with the WWE Universe.
