10 times Kane won when he should have lost

#9 vs. Chavo Guerrero (WrestleMania 24)

kane chavo guerrero — Kane beats Chavo Guerrero for the ECW Championship

This match just further put into the minds of the fans that the WWE version of the ECW Championship was completely unimportant. Kane won the match in about 10 seconds with a single chokeslam, defeating Chavo Guerrero to win the ECW Title. Chavo was coming off of a very competitive feud with CM Punk, and this served to essentially put Chavo out of his misery.

Punk would go on to win his first of two straight Money in the Bank matches that night, so it didn’t hurt him at all. He lost the feud to Chavo, who was made to look like a joke by Kane but won Money in the Bank and the World Title, so Punk was just fine.

Even worse, though, is that this led to months of monsters feuding for the ECW Title, as Kane would feud with Mark Henry and The Big Show as Champion before finally losing the belt to Henry. At least that was a good thing. Mark Henry was a good ECW Champion.

About the author

I got my first big break writing for 411Mania back in 2004. I did a small spot in a big weekly piece that was written by one of the site's top writers. I quickly added the duty of being the live recapper for episodes of SmackDown, and in 2005 was given my own weekly column, which I did for a few years. I gave up writing (mostly) to start a family but got back into it, still at 411, a little over 3 years later. For another couple of years, I wrote 2-3 columns per week for the website before finding paid work elsewhere, and eventually wound up at SportsKeeda.

I am also the co-founder of the RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk podcast, which started in the summer of 2005 and is still going strong today, almost 15 years later. Due to school, work, and family commitments, I left the team in 2011 but still remain a part of the family.
