• Kane Feels Outgunned At Royal Rumble 2018, Says The Rock Would Be Insane To Run For President
During a recent interview with The Miami Herald, former WWF Champion Kane talked about his upcoming Universal Title match at Royal Rumble 2018, The Rock possibly running for President in the future & more.
Below are the highlights:
On his upcoming Universal Title match at Royal Rumble 2018:
“It’s an opportunity for me to become champion again, which those are rare and at this point in my career, I didn’t know if I’d see another one, frankly. So, it’s a great opportunity for me. I’m in the ring with two monsters – make it three, if you include me – but that doesn’t happen very often for me.
It doesn’t happen very often where I go into a match feeling I’m somewhat outgunned, which may be the case here when you have guys like Brock Lesnar and Braun Strowman. There’s going to be a lot of beef in that ring. And the amazing thing about those two guys is they’re just so awesomely athletic for their size.
I mean, you hear people say ‘Oh, he’s a great athlete, for his size,’ but these guys are great athletes, doesn’t matter what size they are.”
On his current WWE status:
“I feel I still go out and perform at a very high level every night. I tell people as long as I’m doing that, as long as I’m having fun doing what I’m doing, I will continue performing.
When you look at the overall picture, I think that a lot of what I try to do now is help the younger guys refine their craft as much as possible.
We have some tremendous talent that is on the main roster, of course, people from NXT coming up, I think the future is very bright for WWE.”
On The Rock considering a Presidential run in 2024 and if he would join The Rock on the ticket:
“[Laughs] I think he would be insane to run for President. I’m going to leave that there. He’s doing pretty well in movies, and if I were him, I don’t think I would do that. And I would absolutely turn down that nomination on my part. I’m pretty happy where I’m at.”
