– According to WrestlingObserver, The masked man who came out to Kane’s music on last night’s RAW, dressed up as the “old school” version of the Big Red Machine was WWE developmental talent Drew Hankinson, who has been wrestling as Freakin Deacon (and aka Deacon Deville) in Deep South Wrestling. There were plans for him to feud with Kane last year, prior to Kane going out with a knee injury. For more details on the new Kane’s debut, check out our RAW coverage, and we’ll have more on this bizarre story when it unfolds.

– Interestingly, shortly after it happened on Raw, Kane vs. Kane was a featured video on WWE.com. Now there is no trace of what happened and no pictures in the Raw archives. WWE.com has pictures of the match between Kane and Benjamin, but nothing with the “return” of Kane can be found on their site.
