WWE fans have seen plenty of jokes on the Kane character. Glenn Jacobs may not wear the mask anymore, but others have stepped up in recent memory to throw their own spin on his WWE Hall of Fame gimmick.
We’re seen Blue Kane, and that got a lot of responses. Then Gayne really shook things up. Now we have CoKane, a cocaine variation of the classic Kane persona. Juggalo Championship Wrestling is still doing their thing, and they’ve triggered Dustin Rhodes with their latest breakout star.
Dustin Rhodes tweeted out in furious fashion. He was not happy about this new play on Kane’s name at all. He not only trashed the gimmick, but anyone who had any say in helping it become a reality.
“This is disgustingly stupid. All involved should be ashamed. Work or not.”
Odds are, Dustin Rhodes won’t be doing any JCW shows with the Big White Powder Machine. We probably won’t see CoKane in AEW either. This is a shame, because someone with that gimmick might do well under Tony Khan’s booking.
Only time will tell if fans on the indies get a Blue Kane vs Gayne vs CoKane dream triple threat match. Dustin Rhodes won’t be watching that match if it ever goes down.
You can check out the clip below, along with Dustin Rhodes’ disapproving response. This is very interesting, especially considering all the lengths that Rhodes himself went through with the Goldust gimmick in the 90s to push the limit on a weekly basis.
Do you believe that this gimmick went too far with Co Kane? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
