5 Ups And 6 Downs From WWE Madison Square Garden 2015

1. Raising Kane

Glad to see WWE making new main event stars, pushing that up-and-coming talent, Kane, to the main event. Let€™s make sure we€™re clear about this: This is the same guy who has won 18 televised matches since 2014 while losing 69 bouts. And now that Kane has re-donned his mask, he€™s now being pushed as an unstoppable monster. Witness WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, the supposed best in the business, cowering in fear and then getting annihilated by the Big Red Monster on Saturday. Kane is supposedly dominant once again and presumably will headline the Hell in a Cell PPV at age 48. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBInfTz-Rjc Don€™t get it wrong, this dual personality deal with Corporate Kane seemingly unaware of (or willfully ignoring) Demon Kane is fun and has made the character more interesting than he€™s been in more than a year. But pushing him as a top guy suddenly after jobbing him out for two years is just ridiculous.
