25-years ago today.

25-years ago today, Kane made his WWE debut.

Kane would tear through the Hell in a Cell, attacking his half-brother, The Undertaker in one of the most dramatic and memorable moments in WWE history.

What many fans don’t know about Kane was that WWE were initially going to call him, ‘Inferno’. Kane would discuss this during an interview with Sports Illustrated, he stated:

The original name of the character was Inferno. I didn’t like that very much. I though it sounded cartoonish. Bruce Prichard always liked the name Kane, and I liked it, too. It played off Cain and Abel in the Bible, the good brother and the bad brother, and we pitched that. The name got changed, we finally figured out the outfit, and then I had my debut at the [Badd Blood] pay per view”.

Kane would go on to become one of the most successful WWE stars of all time. Winning two World Titles, and becoming a WWE Hall of Famer.

There is certainly an argument to be made that this is greatest WWE debut of all time.
