WWE SmackDown: 5 reasons why The Fiend targetted Kane

#4. To remind the WWE Universe that The Fiend and Kane have history

Kane and The Fiend definitely have history

Kane and The Fiend have crossed paths before and interestingly it was The Fiend who came out on top when he used The Mandible Claw on the former World Champion before then adding him to his wall of friends inside the Fun House.

Interestingly, since being put on the wall, Mick Foley hasn't returned to WWE and Jerry "The King" Lawler has continued to appear on commentary like nothing happened. This doesn't come off too well for The Fiend who is said to reach down your throat and take out your soul as part of the move, so Kane's appearance could have been to prove that The Fiend is still something to be feared.

Kane is the only star who isn't performing full-time on the roster to return after an attack from The Fiend and it appears that the masked star wanted to take him out completely since once again, much like Daniel Bryan his mission with Kane was to make him remember.
