10 Wrestling Geniuses you probably didn't know about

#1 Kane

Beneath that mask is an incredibly intelligent man

Kane was initially introduced as a mute monster that couldn’t speak, and was often maligned as an idiot by his enemies. In fact, several people in WWE have tried to tell the audience that Kane was a big simpleton beneath his mask.

However, the truth is the exact opposite: Kane is an incredibly smart man. Not only did he win the WWE edition of The Weakest Link, but he has also been very active in politics, economics and philosophy.

He has spoken about his libertarian beliefs many times and has even been a guest speaker at various libertarian conventions. If one were to listen to him speak, they’d see that the man behind Kane is very eloquent, composed and backs up his words with tangible evidence.

It shouldn’t surprise anyone that Kane has managed to create a very interesting life for himself outside of the wrestling ring. Not only does he still do public speaking gigs and runs his own insurance agency in Knoxville, Tennessee, but he is also running for mayor in that same county.

Only a genius of man would be able to succeed in all of these non-wrestling-related ventures.
