Could Kane become the new Universal Champion at the Royal Rumble?
#2 It gives Kane some extra credibility

The Devil's Favorite Former Champion/Demon.
Yeah, I understand that it’s Kane, and similar to The Undertaker, it has gotten to the point in which his character is almost timeless. No matter how many times they do silly things with him, or turn him into a goofball corporate yes-man, if you throw the mask back on him, everybody seems to forget and just see him the way WWE presents him.
So while it is indeed true that Kane doesn’t NEED to win the Universal Title, it would give him an extra few ounces of credibility that WWE could use to keep him active for most of the rest of the year. He’s a former Universal Champion, and not only does anybody who wrestles him next beat Kane, but they’re also beating a recent Universal Champion, so it’s an even bigger win.

About the author
Nicholas A. Marsico
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.
