2. Paul Bearer's "Kane Can Drive" Rib

Tears almost filled Kane's eyes when he recalled working with Paul Bearer. The man was more than an on screen manager to Jacobs, and wanted the wrestler to focus on his matches without worrying about plane travel, hotels etc. Knowing all that would be sorted gave Kane time to focus on his actual performances.

Bearer still found the time for some light-hearted ribs.

One time, the pair were riding together in a red cadillac, and Jacobs was driving. To conceal his identity (and presumably terrify traffic cops), Kane wore a ski mask instead of his traditional red and black one whenever he approached arenas or busy areas. Seizing the chance to have a laugh, Bearer rolled down the window and yelled over to some fans, "It's a miracle, Kane can drive! Kane can drive!" in his shrill voice.

That attracted a lot of attention, and fans ended up swarming the car. Kane was flustered at the time, but looks back on moments like that fondly now. Bearer was ribbing him under the guise of staying in character and adding to his lore.
