WWE Superstar Kane recently spoke with the UK Daily Star‘s Patrick Lennon, talking about his own career as well as some of the talents he’s worked with in recent years.
Kane talks about Daniel Bryan’s run and what it meant to him, working with Seth Rollins and The Shield along with Bryan, and more. You can read a few excerpts below:
Kane comments on Daniel Bryan’s retirement:
“It was really more bitter than anything else because he’s a great performer and WWE lost a great performer. He was a guy who had a lot of years ahead of him. That’s very sad but, by the same token, I’m very glad that for his health and his personal future that Daniel did what he did.
As far as our awareness of concussion and our WWE Wellness Programme, what he did because of that, because of the information he had – I think that’s a credit to our company. We had a lot of fun in Team Hell No and I tell people that it was the most fun I’ve ever had in WWE. I got to do something completely different and that I’d never done before. Daniel brought out a side of me that people had never seen.”
Kane talks about Seth Rollins, The Shield now reaching their potential as singles stars:
“Seth is just an awesome talent. It’s amazing, the guys from the Shield – Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns – we all knew they had great potential. It’s awesome to see them fulfilling that.
It was very rewarding for me to be there, not only with Seth but with Roman and Dean, when they first started. Daniel Bryan and I in Team Hell No were among their opponents early on and it is really very gratifying for me to maybe in some way have helped launch those guys to what are going to be really great heights.”
