10 Times WWE Ruined Kane

7. The Whole Lita Wedding Debacle

After unmasking, Kane was involved in some truly bizarre storylines.

One of the most notable examples was his fixation on Lita, effectively forcing the Diva to marry him on the August 23, 2004 episode of Monday Night Raw. Kane had been creepy for years, but this angle would take things to a whole new level.

During promos, Kane said that he had impregnated Lita so that he could "continue his legacy". As if that wasn't weird enough, Matt Hardy - Lita's then-boyfriend - was dragged into the story for the express purpose of a match against Kane at SummerSlam. Only after Kane defeated Matt did the aforementioned wedding take place.

Of course, Hardy interfered in the ceremony, but things would only get more ridiculous afterwards. Gene Snitsky caused Lita to have a miscarriage, something that turned Kane (a psychopathic stalker who had apparently forcibly impregnated Lita) into the default babyface of the piece.

Throughout all of this, questions should have been asked in WWE creative meetings. This was doing nothing for Kane, Lita, Matt Hardy or anyone else.
