• Kane Fires Back At Congressman Tim Ryan For Calling Professional Wrestling Fake

After multiple wrestlers fired back at Ryan, Old School WWF Legend Kane (Mayor of Knox County) replied the following to Ryan:
“Sir, your statement is emblematic of the out-of-touch elitism, so typical of Washington, that has alienated countless everyday Americans. Professional wrestling brings joy to millions around the world. Politicians like yourself usually bring nothing but misery.”
