Kane hugs it out with his Team Hell No partner Daniel Bryan and Ricardo Rodriguez

Kane is unarguably one of the scariest wrestlers to step foot inside a WWE ring. The seven-foot monster, with and without his signature red mask, has struck fear in the hearts of countless opponents.

The WWE Hall of Famer has had epic rivalries with superstars like his kayfabe half-brother The Undertaker, Triple H, Big Show, The Rock, and Stone Cold Steve Austin, to name a few. He's also been part of memorable gimmick matches like the Inferno match, Buried Alive match, and Hell in a Cell match.

While always portraying a serious character with sinister traits Kane, at times, has also had a role reversal. The Big Red Machine has had his share of lighter moments, particularly in the early 2000s when he became slightly more human and began speaking without the mouthpiece.

Another instance that comes to mind is his time in Team Hell No with Daniel Bryan. The two superstars, through their shenanigans in the early part of the last decade, certainly gave the WWE Universe a hefty share of laughs.

In this article, we reminisce about the five funniest Kane moments in WWE.

#5 When Pete Rose got tombstoned by Kane

Kane and his feud with baseball legend Pete Rose has been well documented since the Big Red Machine debuted in the WWE at Bad Blood in 1997.

At WrestleMania 14 in Boston, Pete Rose was the celebrity ring announcer for the first-ever battle between The Undertaker and Kane. Before announcing the match, he began taunting the fans by criticizing their baseball team, the Boston Red Sox. When Kane entered the ring with Paul Bearer, he didn't take Pete's words very kindly and tombstoned a petrified Rose. WWE Universe loved the act.

Their rivalry continued as Pete occasionally interfered in Kane's matches, mostly being at the receiving end of a tombstone.

#4 Kane and Daniel Bryan – "I am going to Disneyland"

Kane and Daniel Bryan were amongst the most dysfunctional and entertaining tag-teams on the WWE roster.

At Night of Champions 2012, after a huge championship victory, Kane and Bryan were backstage with AJ Lee and their therapist, Dr. Shelby.

Dr. Shelby asked both the stars to congratulate each other. Bryan did but Kane walked away as Daniel began complaining. The Big Red Machine came back with a big container of Gatorade and, much to his shock, poured it over Bryan.

Kane then giddily declared he was going to Disneyland and ran off, much to the amusement of the fans.

#3 Kane celebrates with Santino Marella, Vladimir Kozlov, and The Big Show in the ring

In 2010-11, Santino Marella, his partner Vladimir Kozlov, and his kayfabe girlfriend Tamina were in a feud with The Corre; a faction comprising of Heath Slater, Justin Gabriel, Wade Barrett, and Ezekiel Jackson.

During the feud, Santino squared off against Gabriel with The Corre at ringside. To even the odds, Big Show and Kane, who were tag-team partners at the time, came down to the ring. Marella won the match and began celebrating in his traditional trumpet gesture with Kozlov and Tamina.

Soon, the Big Show joined the act and when Kane started, the entire segment went off the rails as the WWE Universe erupted with joy. It was certainly the first time fans in attendance witnessed Kane do a dance-like celebration.

#2 Kane-a-roonie with Booker T and Goldust

In a late 2002 episode of Monday Night RAW, Kane partnered with Booker T and Goldust to square off against the Un-Americans; the team of Lance Storm, Christian, and the late Test in a three-on-three tag team match.

As the Big Red Machine's team emerged victorious, Booker did his special move, the spinaroonie, only for Kane to do one of his own – the Kane-a-roonie. His acrobats, doing this move, induced a phenomenal cheer from the WWE Universe.

#1 Kane, Hulk Hogan, and The Rock backstage

In the early 2000s, Hulk Hogan and The Rock became tag partners in a match with the nWo. At the time, it was made up of Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and X-Pac. Hogan and The Rock got a third partner in Kane.

Before the match, as the three were together backstage, The Rock was being his typical self, but things got interesting when Kane started throwing catch-phrases of these two icons.

The Big Red Machine delivered their lines beautifully calling his fans Kanenites. He followed it up with a Hogan-esque pose. The WWE Universe went ballistic seeing this and, to date, reminisces it as one of Kane's funniest moments.
