Publisher's summary

The surprising story of how wrestling superstar Glenn "Kane" Jacobs beat all the odds to become the mayor of Knox County, Tennessee.

Even in his heyday in wrestling, Jacobs was inspired to pursue politics by popular libertarian figures such as former Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, Republican Senator Rand Paul, Fox News' Judge Andrew Napolitano and others, and that led him to fulfill his own political ambitions.

Before becoming Mayor Kane, Glenn "Kane" Jacobs was one of WWE's top Superstars for over two decades and traveled the globe with the likes of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, John Cena, Ric Flair, and many others. He dominated the WWE with The Undertaker as the "Brothers of Destruction." Kane reinvented himself with the help of Daniel Bryan forming "Team Hell No." He set "Good ol' JR", Jim Ross on fire.

The wrestler-turned-politician hasn't hung up his wrestling boots yet. Politics is a contact sport and Jacobs is using his wrestling skills in that arena. Jacobs supports President Trump and his agenda, and is implementing conservative policies in Tennessee.

buy this and you will never regret it!!

another true story of how lucky we are to be American! being a wrestling fan growing up in the Attitude Era was a blessing and something that will never happen again . Glen a.k.a Kane was one of the many hero's I had to help me get through the growing pains of school and life . no matter what happened during the week I knew Monday night was coming and I used it as motivation! now I read this book and feel the same way about politics because of Glen and what he stands for! your never to old to have heros and more importantly your never to old to start being one! this book will let you know why freedom is so important and why it's worth fighting for!! buy this book and I promise no buyers remorse!

LEGEND, IN AND OUTSIDE OF THE RING!

It’s hard to dislike this book, especially when you’re not only WWE KANE fan, but also Glenn Jacob’s! This book is funny at the same time touchy yet informative.

More interesting than I anticipated

I came in expecting more or less a audiobook of tales from the living legend Glenn “Kane” Jacobs, but by the end I came to appreciate him for far more than just what he showed on tv, but for his drive to do what he set his mind to despite numerous setbacks, and does give me somewhat of a different drive.

Spoiler alert past chapter 10 gets political

I enjoyed the book even when it dabbled in political theories, but I had to skip one chapter. Overall though for me the one chapter in just a cliff in my overall experience and I am not asking for a review.

Note: if he began to praise That Che guerilla who blew up changes but still appears on t-shirt I would have skip that two

Awesome if your a Kane fan

This audio book was great, hearing about Kane and his WWE career was great read. Hearing about his political career and views was also set in a neutral tone which is great, Kane is an all around genuine guy.

A real story told by a legend

If you like wrestling, after your into politics and vice versa. Upset he did not talk about Katie Vick or shocking Shane's balls
