WWE: Why Kane Deserves a Heavyweight Championship Reign

In my opinion, Kane is one of the most under-rated and under-used WWE superstars of all time.

At 44 years old, Kane's time as a full-time WWE superstar is coming to an end soon.

Before the end comes, Kane deserves another run with either the World Heavyweight title or WWE Championship.

Since his debut in 1997, Kane has been a dominating monster.

He is surprisingly athletic for someone who is seven feet tall and has a nice blend of strength and technical ability in the ring.

Kane has been durable and has been a full-time employee of the WWE for over 15 years.

He is a WWE legend that will be inducted into the Hall of Fame when he retires, yet you might be surprised to hear that Kane has only won the World Heavyweight Championship and WWE Championship once each.

You would think someone who has been with the company for so long and has been so important to the company would have more Championship reigns.

In his early years, Kane was introduced as the Undertaker's brother and he wore a mask to cover scars on his face.

His impressive size and eerie gimmick combined to create interesting feuds and angles for the WWE.

His mask came off in 2003 following a loss to Triple H.

It felt as if the monster feeling of Kane went away when he took off the mask. He gradually went away from being a dominating inhuman force into being more of a human, and remained mask-less until December of 2011.

After several weeks of promo videos that hinted at his returning to the mask, Kane returned and attacked John Cena.

This feud gave Kane a change in his gimmick and was a chance for him to once again be one of the most dominating forces in the WWE.

Kane has now turned his attention to Randy Orton, and will face him in a match at WrestleMania 28. Kane's angle for this rivalry is that it is turning him back into a full-fledged monster again.

A potential upset over Orton could put him directly into a title picture.

After his feud with Orton, the WWE should start to work Kane into a World Heavyweight Championship contender.

It is uncertain how much more time Kane has as a professional wrestler, or how long this masked gimmick will last.

One thing that is certain is that Kane has earned more than one World Heavyweight Championship in his career.

His new gimmick would make for an interesting angle as champion and the WWE should see where it takes them.

Kane should have at least one more title run in the WWE before his inevitable retirement.
