Kane shouldn't be inducted to the Hall of Fame, no way. That would be an insult to people like Hulk Hogan, The Original Sheik and Ric Flair who have actually made a real impact on wrestling and changed the industry for the better. Kane has been a consistant underacheiving reliable performer for ages but he's not HOF worthy. To be put Kane up with Naitch, HBK and Bret Hart is ridiculous.

Kane has a better carrer than more than half the guys inducted in the Hall of Fame IMO
Saying Kane shouldn't go into the Hall of Fame is pretty stupid.
Are you joking? List them then. You are obviously not a veteran fan if you think Kane has had a better career than people like Bret Hart, Eddie Guerrero, Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, The Junkyard Dog, The Wild Samoans, Jerry Lawler, The Original Sheik, Tony Atlas, Verne Gagne and the others. Seriously man, Kane has been jobbing to people like Daddy V for half his career, how is that HOF worthy?

I've been a fan for 11 years and Kane has had a carrer that many wrestlers wished to have. His number of title reigns overall is impressive. He has the Royal Rumble record for Eliminations with 11. Kane has had an awesome carrer. Get your facts straight before you talk. Not to mention that even though Kane was WWE Champion for 24 Hours, there are even guys in the Hall of Fame that were never World Champion. Please stop this silly arguement. I've watched Kane's carrer since he started and he is Hall of Fame worthy. Infact the announcers have said it themselves when he wrestles at times.
I don't care how many titles he's won, Raven has won loads of titles but he's not Hall of Fame worhty. Eliminating the most people isn't that much of a big deal when you look at what people like Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair have done for wrestling. What has Kane done for wrestling? He is nowhere near Flair's level or even Eddie Guerrero's. He hasn't made an impact on pro wrestling. He's had a good career but nothing special. You telling me that Kane is on the same tier as HBK? Or Sheik? Or Hogan? Or Bret? Or The Undertaker? Come off it, he's jobbing to Mark Henry half the time. It's not a silly argument, it's a perfectly good argument and I do have my facts straight so don't talk down to me. Your point about the announcers made me laugh, are these the same announcers that say The Undertaker is gone forever and that Edge is an awful man? Yes. They say the same crap about Kane being a total badass every week yet he seems to lose all the time or at least get roughed around a bit.

He's trying to get the young talent over. Destroying them won't help them. Kane is trying to get these guys to learn how to tell a story in the ring. He's been working with Miz, Morrison and Punk a lot lately and is probably for that. Still WWE has shown that Kane still has a bad side like when he Chokeslammed Miz on the floor at Judgement Day and the next ECW where he almost destroyed Miz. He still has the character but he wants to make these young guys look good more than caring for his character right now.
Destroying a few people would actually help the young talent more.
If he's portrayed as this badass monster that no one on ECW can beat, it certainly would put whoever does eventually beat him over more than having him be some guy who can barely beat Chavo.
Perpetually Marking For:
Randy Orton, Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio, Raven, Gail Kim, Alex Shelley, John Morrison, Christian Cage, Edge, Mickie James, Santino Marella, Melina, Roxxi Laveaux, Jade Chung, Angela Fong (Why, no. I'm not noticing a trend at all...), Alicia Fox, Jack Swagger, The Brian Kendrick, Evan Bourne.
Formerly Marking For:
The Rock, Lita, Triple H, Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit (yeah, I know), Sting, Ric Flair, Elijah Burke, Kenny Dykstra, Lena Yada.
Currently Marking For:Too important to use colors. Dolph Ziggler, pRiceKO, and the FUCKING LIONTAMER!!!!.
I'm 15 but I know a lot more about wrestling than you might think so don't judge me on my age.
Kane was a key role in one of the most famous feuds of the Attitude Era (Undertaker/Kane) but that role could have been played by any generic big man wrestler. All he had to do was wear a mask and hang out with Paul Bearer, 'Taker was the star and driving force behind that feud. And that is one feud which if you think about it, was a little silly at times, that's not enough for him to be inducted into the HOF.
Here you go, if Kane's career continued at the intensity and quality that it did in the Attitude Era, I would say he should be welcomed into the HOF. But from 2002 onward, he has been stale and repeptive, jobbed out to sucky wrestlers over and over again. It has diminished his cred and it would be an insult to put him in a group of wrestlers including Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan when from 02-08, Kane was been average at best. And the key players in the Attitude Era were Foley, Rock, Stone Cold and Triple H. The others played a part in its success but were replaceable.

He was going to destroy Miz a few weeks ago. WWE still showed that Kane has a bad side. Chavo Guerrero had Bam Neely with him and injured Kane's knee for Backlash.
