KANE SETS FIRE TO JIM ROSS
July 14, 2003
Over the past few weeks, Kane has
been a man possessed. His random acts of violence have sent shockwaves through
RAW locker rooms. Superstars never know when, where or why Kane is going to
strike next. With each one of his attacks visibly more damaging than the
previous, many Superstars feel threatened to come to work each week.
Kane's most heinous attack came
this past Monday while sitting down with Jim Ross for an interview. Everything
seemed to be going well until J.R. asked the question on everybody's mind. He
asked Kane why he is so afraid to show his face, especially since there does
not seem to be any visible scars. This question sent Kane into a frenzy. Every
word that came out of his mouth added more and more proof to the fact that Kane
needs psychological assistance. Then, just when you thought Kane's words were
damaging enough, the Big Red Machine struck J.R. While the RAW announcer was
out cold, Kane doused him with gasoline and set him fire. The incident provided
for one of the most disgusting visuals ever to appear on WWE television.
While the voice of RAW lay nearly
lifeless after being set on fire, Eric Bischoff alerted Stone Cold Steve Austin
that he feels Kane's actions are a result of
