Take this with a grain of salt, but I've heard that sometimes, in the 90's, when he would leave the arena after a show he would be wearing like a ski mask or something.

The general rule is that should you run into him back in the day, and recognize him, he may sign an Autograph but pictures are strictly forbidden. Even if he had his mask on him.
Now, that doesnt count obviously for pictures of Glenn Jacobs that surfaces from him with his family, or if someone sneaks a picture, theres not much that can be done, but yeah, the rule is pretty much no posed pictures (doesnt mean he always followed that though).

I think one of my favourite and most surprising moments as a wrestling fan was when Kane unmasked in 2003. I had never seen a picture of him maskless so it was a genuine surprise for me...and man, they made him look creepy. Of course, following that there were questions on whether or not it was really the same wrestler, but I think (even as an 11 year old) that I always knew it was the same guy.

I always laughed when people questioned if Glen was always Kane. If you listen to Kane's promos from 2001 and then in 2003, it is clearly the same voice.
And Glen use to be a tank. He was huge, but sadly injuries caused him to loose much of his muscles mass by late-2002. But from 1997-early 2002, he was HUGE.

Well I see something wasn't dedicated to his gimmick. Yes, 5 pictures of him without the mask compared to the hundreds of times he wore it. What a lack of dedication!

That year was the most lean he has ever been

Kane has huge arms and for his height that is very impressive. Also he looks like an older and taller rob van dam with his hair.

Exactly the same for me too, word for word. I was also 11 that year & had never seen him de-masked before. I had no knowledge of his previous gimmicks either. I always knew it was Glenn Jacobs & would always have to argue with friends who insisted it was a different person.

I'm pretty sure those pics are not from autograph signing sessions. I think they're from people seeing him at the airport and asking for his autograph.

They would have obviously been hardcore fans who knew that he was Glenn Jacobs & recognized him from his previous gimmicks, plus he stands at seven feet tall & is very muscular: he wouldn't just blend in with a crowd.

Sometime around '01, '02 maybe, me and my best friend met him at the airport while waiting for our flight (Smackdown or something was in town the next night). Took him for Undertaker at first til Undertaker came down the way about a minute later. Naturally, he wasn't wearing his mask. Street clothes and sunglasses.

It looks like a burnt Undertaker. I've gone 14 years wondering what that figure looked like without the mask on. Now I know. I now feel like I can go and write a novel.
