Kane hasn’t wrestled for a number of years but could be eyeing up an unlikely opponent for his final match.
The WWE Hall of Famer last competed as a surprise entrant in the 2021 Royal Rumble. That at least gave him the chance to not have the DX vs Brothers of Destruction in 2018 match be his final outing, saving him some embarrassment at the end of his career.
Four years on and he could be looking at a return to the ring. However, Kane is looking for a wrestler to be his opponent but instead is targeting a fellow politician.
You might have seen him billed in recent years as Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs. He’s maintained a regular presence on social media as Jacobs, but posts on his Kane account from time to time. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s appearance on California Governor Gavin Newsom’s podcast resulted in the Big Red Machine resurfacing online.
Kane responded on Twitter to a clip of Walz, a Vice President Nominee in 2024. Walz claimed he would kick most Trump supporter’s asses in a WWE fight. Kane, who backed Trump in 2024, seemingly laid down the challenge to Kamala Harris’ former running mate.
“Everyone is always asking me if I have one last match left. I think I have found my final victim, er, I mean opponent,” Kane said on Twitter.

Kane Reveals The Two Favorite Incarnations Of His Character
The WWE Hall of Famer sat down with Graham Matthews of Daily DDT to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about all the versions of The Big Red Machine we’ve seen over the years, it appears he has two somewhat surprising favorite incarnations of his character.
“Corporate Kane wasn’t everyone’s favorite incarnation of Kane, but it was shocking and surprising and it was different,” he said. “It’s always cool to step outside the confines of the character.
“One of my favorite parts of my career was with Daniel Bryan and the Team Hell No stuff because if you look back at 1998 and fast forward 20 years and Kane is going to be the comedic element on the show? No way. It was cool to do that and destroy people’s preconceived notion of what you can do.”
When asked about the character’s longevity in WWE, Kane attributed that to doing what was right for the company and not being selfish.
“I just showed up every day and worked hard,” Kane said. “I also wasn’t selfish. People would say, ‘Why is Kane putting this person over?’ The reason is because it’s good for the company. You always need new people coming along and in the end, I stayed there for a long time because of that. I understood it wasn’t about me, it was about the success of the company and if the company’s successful, I was going to be successful.”
