Glenn Thomas Jacobs, also known as Kane has been one of the most popular wrestlers in the World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment (WWF/E). Nicknamed “The Big Red Machine”, he is notable for being the kayfabe younger brother of The Undertaker with whom, he also formed a tag team called “The Brothers of Destruction”.
Hailing from Torrejon de Ardoz, Spain, Kane made his WWF/WWE debut as Isaac Yankem, DDS on July 26, 1995. However, his Kane persona debuted at Badd Blood: In Your House on October 5, 1997, by interfering and costing The Undertaker his Hell in a Cell match against Shawn Michaels. The storyline served that The Undertaker had started a fire in his family’s funeral home and had murdered his family. However, Kane, his younger brother, whom he thought to be dead, survived and is back for revenge. This set up a long rivalry between two kayfabe brothers.
However, in 1998, Kane and The Undertaker formed a tag team for the first time called “The Brothers of Destruction” which was very popular with the fans. Since then, the tag team has occasionally reunited. Kane has been WWF Champion, World Heavyweight Champion, ECW Champion, WCW Tag Team Champion, WWF/WWE Intercontinental Champion, WWF Hardcore Champion WWF/WWE/ World Tag Team Champion (nine times) and WWE Tag Team Champion (twice).
Kane is notable for his signature moves, Chokeslam, a kind of body slam and Tombstone Piledriver, which is a driver move. He became a member of the WWE Hall of Fame in 2021. He is presently the Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, United States.

Kane’s WrestleMania Guest/Special Appearances
Kane had three special appearances at WrestleMania, all before or after his matches. All of them are with MLB veteran Pete Rose. These are as follows:
Kane vs Pete Rose Part I (WrestleMania XIV)
This was Kane's debut WrestleMania and he was all set up to face off against The Undertaker. However, prior to the match, Pete Rose came out as the guest announcer and started bragging to the Boston fans about how The Cincinnati Reds defeated the Boston Red Sox in the 1975 World Series. Kane, although was a heel at the time, would have none of this and performed a Tombstone Piledriver on Pete Rose.
Kane vs Pete Rose Part II (WrestleMania XV)
Pete Rose returned as the San Diego Chicken to seek revenge on Kane for the previous WrestleMania. Although he attacked Kane before his match with Triple H, he soon had his lights turned out courtesy of another Tombstone Piledriver from Kane.
Kane vs Pete Rose Part III (WrestleMania 2000)
This was the final confrontation between Kane and Pete Rose. After Kane and Rikishi defeated the D-Generation X, the San Diego Chicken got inside the ring and started to dance with Rikishi and Too Cool. Kane, again, attacked the mascot but it was not Pete Rose this time. The real Pete Rose soon entered the ring and tried to attack Kane with a baseball bat. However, Kane ended him with a Chokeslam. Moreover, he also got a Stinkface from Rikishi.
