Going Ringside Ep. 92: Kane returns

Mayor Glenn Jacobs discusses video with Trump, political advice for Dwayne Johnson and controversial indie wrestler ‘Cokane’

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – On this packed episode of Going Ringside, we’re joined by Mayor Glenn Jacobs or as wrestling fans know him better, Kane.

Jacobs joined us on episode 75 and is back with a lot of newsworthy updates we discuss in this episode.

First, we talk politics following the election of President-elect Donald Trump. Jacobs is an outspoken supporter of Trump and made headlines when he appeared in a social media video along with Trump and The Undertaker. This came when Trump appeared on Undertaker’s podcast shortly before the election.

We also discuss with Jacobs Dwayne Johnson’s flirtation with politics. Going Ringside has shared Johnson’s interest in possibly running for president someday.

In this episode, Jacobs will offer his thoughts on Johnson following in his footsteps and getting into politics. Jacobs is the current mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, and said when his term expires he is still interested in politics.

In this interview, he’ll discuss his interest in possibly working with Elon Musk under the Trump Administration.

But there are non-political parts of this interview, specifically the controversial independent wrestler “Cokane” -- a gimmick that’s essentially a rip-off of the Kane character, which is owned by WWE. Jacobs will offer his thoughts on the controversial parody of his old wrestling character.

On this episode, we’re also joined by former AEW star Allie “The Bunny.”

We’ll also have Deseree Joson with the Shoots & Ladders podcast on to break down Kane’s career.
