10 times Kane won when he should have lost

#5 vs. Bray Wyatt (Backlash 2016)

This didn’t turn out to be too detrimental in the long run, but it was still just ridiculous to see. Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt had become embroiled in a feud at the beginning of the new brand split, but Orton was concussed by Brock Lesnar the month before SmackDown’s first pay-per-view so their match could not take place. Wyatt instead wrestled Kane, and even though Orton interfered in the match to help him win, it should not have been a win for Kane.

Bray Wyatt had a chance at new life when the brand split began, and he was immediately defeated by Kane, who shouldn’t have been winning big matches in 2006, let alone 2016. As I said, it didn’t hurt Bray too much, as he and Orton would end up becoming a successful team and Bray even went on to win the WWE Championship early the following year.

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.
