Kane has been one of the best superstars and arguably the most respected wrestler of WWE. Kane, whose name is 'Glenn Thomas Jacobs' has had a good run with the company both as a face as well as a heel. His monstrous run has given the fans and the viewers a lot of spine chilling moments during the Attitude Era as well as the Ruthless Aggression Era in the late 90s and early 2000s. During his association with the WWE, Kane has won three world championships which include WWF Championship, ECW Championship, and the World Heavyweight Championship. In addition to it, 'The Big Red Machine' is also a two-time Intercontinental Champion, WWF Hardcore Champion, and a 12-time tag team champion. Lately, 'The Big Red Monster' had managed to win yet another title.

Kane wins the WWE 24/7 title

Kane is currently the Mayor of Knox County, Tenessee. However, he made his WWE return to Raw last Monday under his real name Glenn Jacobs. He used his mayoral powers to give the WWE 24/7 Champion R-Truth a tour of the Neyland Stadium. However, once the duo were inside the stadium, they saw a cop standing over there. R-Truth enquired about the same and Kane made it clear that the person was not a cop but a referee in disguise. R-Truth after realising that he was in deep trouble decided to run for his life. Unfortunately, he ran into a goalpost and fell unconscious. Kane wasted no time and rolled up Truth for a three-count to become the new WWE 24/7 Champion.

R-Truth has the last laugh

Kane had enthralled the WWE fans as he won a major WWE title after a long time. Sadly, his title reign did not last too long. Kane's first-ever title reign i.e. his WWF Championship reign had lasted for only 24 hours back in 1998 when he dropped it once again to Stone Cold Steve Austin on Raw whom he had defeated the previous day at the King of the Ring. Nevertheless, this reign lasted for only a few hours. Kane's WWE 24/7 Championship came to an abrupt end while he was arriving at the arena for Raw. Surprisingly, R-Truth was hiding on top of the mayor's car and when Kane was exiting with the belt, Truth rolled him up to for a three-count and grabbed the title back.
