Too many stories were going at once on this episode. For someone like Kane, you can put his story aside for a few good episodes and his fued with the Undertaker will still be important.

If anything, Kane will be teased with an Undertaker return at the Royal Rumble, just like how it happened years ago for Wrestlemania XX

He was probably selling the fact that EDGE SLAMMED A CHAIR ON HIS KNEE.

Cena got his ass beat with a chair multiple times, hell, he was even tossed into a spotlight that exploded, and came back the next week.

But apparently Cena is stronger than the Devil's favorite Demon.

Cena is superman remember.

 

[Chismo]

Kane/Zeke needs to happen.

 

[ChiefMorley]

Thanks to Justin Dunaway for sending in the following:

Prior to the WWE Smackdown taping last night, Percy Watson defeated Tyler Reks in the event's dark match.

After the Smackdown taping, Edge and Rey Mysterio defeated Kane and Alberto Del Rio in a tag team dark match main event.

Yeah, he is stronger than Kane. Money talks. Vince will push Cena to Raw in a wheelbarrow if he has to.

 

[P.Smith]

Well it's obviously becuase he was taken out by Edge last week, it would be a bit farfetch'd if Kane came back his normal self dominating people after being brutalised last week.

Plus it's all the more reason to watch SmackDown this week.

 

[-Halo-]

Kane went from a monster to a pussy , id like one tiny story where he gets the fuck out of wrestling for a year, let his hair grow out,go to the gym, put the fucking mask back on, and _plays original theme strings- the big red monster returns, for one final showdown with taker in next yers wrestle mania, so they can both hang the boots and call it a career.

 

[The_Jiz]

Not surprising.

He got dismantled by Edge, mentally, physically, and emotionally.

 

[peowulf]

Now that's an NXT challenge we NEED to see.

 

[The Enforcer]

Good move to hold Kane off the show tonight. It makes Edge look that much more credible in my opinion. I think SD has gotten to the point where the young guys are carrying the show and they don't skip a beat with the vets not around.

 

[Itzvan]

Was he even missed? I didn't notice he wasn't their.

 

[DesolationRow]

We needed a break from him, anyway. It was nice without him around for a week, and it was well-timed due to what Pyro and The Jiz said. Good move.

He'll come back next week and beat up some random undercarders and declare that he's going to win The Royal Rumble, blah, blah, blah. SOP.

 

[Alex]

I'm glad he wasn't there.

I'd much rather have Ziggler/Edge being the main event feud because I'm really excited to see what kind of match these two can pull off together, Kane can never come back for all I care.

 

[NJ88]

Good move to not have him on the show since they need to move other storylines along without him in the way...plus he's boring and doesn't add anything to it imo. Smackdown has been pretty great since he lost the title, so that kind of speaks for itself.

I presume he'll come back in time for the royal rumble. I have an image in my head of him in the ring, they do the countdown, Undertakers gong goes off, Kane's all worried, when Undertaker gets to the ring, he stares down Kane, Kane then gets eliminated by someone while he's distracted, Undertaker watches him be thrown over the top rope, but instead of turning and attacking him, heads straight for Wade Barrett who's also in the ring at the time, starting that feud. Out with the old, in with the new.

 

[mrchrisieclass]

Kane wasnt missed this week, he'll turn up next week and they will tout him as strong favorite for the Rumble

This please! The WWE ruined Kane by not only making him a funny man for awhile, but then taking his mask off. Now he's hella fat and slow its hard to take him seriously.

 

[21 - 1]

The mask isn't going to give him magical powers which bring back his body from 10 years ago. He's gotten older and has more injuries to deal with, and no lump of leather will make that go away.
