A common criticism of WWE is that they don't really go to the effort of considering intricately detailed scenarios and situations and that they opt for the most obvious outcome. Most people probably don't pay much attention, but WWE have done an excellent job at detailing one thing every single week - the appearance of Kane's mask. For the better part of the past 2 years, it has been a subtle staple in the Authority office since Kane traded in his mask for the suit. WWE goes to the effort, for nearly every one of those weeks over a 2 year period of setting up the table in the background and putting the mask, in it's display box in the office. It's casually been sitting there the whole time, and largely unnoticed. That is - with one exception being the brief time Kane remarked before he traded it in again.   However, if you were watching this weeks Raw closely, for the first time in a very long time - the mask is gone. You're probably thinking - they simply forgot. But not necessarily, they've gone to the effort of still setting up that table which as you can see now sits empty. Perhaps the most subtle hint that a return to the mask (which is likely) is imminent. A pretty cool use of symbolism I reckon! It's a Kane we all want to see.  Slowly but surely, it's time....  |

It depends. If he turns on the Authority, then he can put the mask back on and it would make sense.
But if the Authority turns on Seth Rollins, then it would make sense for Kane to stay with Triple H and Stephanie and keep the mask off.
I guess we'll see what happens.

I noticed this, and also noticed Seth Rollins said "When you play with fire you get burnt" during his promo. I can see that being used in a hype up video.

Totally agree, though it seems like he has run his course as an authority figure and he has yet to exact any kind of revenge on Rollins which wouldn't really work in a face Rollins v heel Kane scenario. I noticed this, and also noticed Seth Rollins said "When you play with fire you get burnt" during his promo. I can see that being used in a hype up video. Haha nice, I thought the exact same but we're both bound to pick up on that. It does seem feasible for Kane to return in a few weeks and face Rollins at Summerslam. |

As soon as Seth said that last night, I thought it would be Kane coming out. A return with the mask would be awesome, and hopefully it happens. |

I hope he returns with a different mask and a badass style (Unmasked era 2003)

it's been a slow burn (pun intended) for the return of kane, but i feel they've been hinting at it for some time too. kane and rollins having animosity was leading to it possibly, but they didn't go through with it and must be planning it for another time. i've noticed the mask in the background but didn't know they'd been so consistent with it.

Going back to the mask worked out great last time *rolls eyes*.

It's not a Kane I want to see. I'm done with Kane. I highly doubt there's anything that could make me interested in Kane ever again.

I really hope he does turn, everyone knows masked kane is far better than corporate.

He should wear the mask and dress slacks.

This has been done too many times for to get any excitement over, Kane in a mask, kane without one, i just don't care anymore. Kane doesn't deliver enough good matches anymore for me to be interested. I don't mind him staying on as a non wrestler though.

The only way I'd get excited about this is if he went back to any of his old masks and not the "Embrace the evil" Mask...

I've been a huge fan of Kane since his debut and always thought a masked return would be the greatest thing ever until it happened a few years back at that Slammy's RAW. That made me realize that the Kane we once knew is just gone and nothing they can do will bring back that "monster"-level Kane.
I love Kane but sticking around at this point is just taking more and more away from the monster he once was. Unfortunately, that's not what he'll be remembered for when he's done. He'll most likely be remembered as the corporate slacks-wearing guy he is today.

What if they gave him a storyline where he went back to Hawaii to relax and nurse his ankle, when a shark attack left his face mangled and grotesque , thus making him revert back to the Monster Kane? |

It's obvious Kane will come back to exact revenge on Rollins who ran when he could've helped him. Whether that's with the mask or not well I guess we'll see. This was a pretty interesting post though.

When Kane is masked, I care. When he's not, I don't. No idea why.

Good eye! Actually, I'd be cool with that. One last Brothers of Destruction reunion would be awesome too.
