10 Times WWE Ruined Kane

10. He Says 'Suck It'

Introduced as a character that didn't need speech to make a statement, Kane's first words should have been special. The whole thing was botched from the get-go, the writing team slotting in an electrolarynx for the man's first few promos. The explanation given directly played into the reason he had shown up in the first place.

The WWF reasoned that Kane's vocal cords had been damaged beyond repair in a fire set by The Undertaker. Therefore, he'd require the voice box to talk at all, never mind clearly. That speech aid would be tossed away on the August 9, 1999 episode of Raw Is War, the date Kane first talked without it on television.

Aligned with X-Pac in an odd couple tag-team, the pair - along with Road Dogg - addressed the audience. X-Pac told Kane he didn't need the electrolarynx any longer, and he managed to gargle 'Suck It' using his own voice. Admittedly, the crowd erupted at the utterance of the iconic catchphrase.

Sadly, this completely ruined the original story and did more damage in the long-run than it first seemed. Less than two years into his run, WWE were already tampering with Kane's gimmick.
