Kane thanks Daniel Bryan:

Kane says the past year has been the most enjoyable of his 18 year WWE career, and he credits Daniel Bryan for being one of wrestling's finest right now...

"Daniel Bryan might be the most talented guy on the roster right now," Kane said. "I think he's the best technical wrestler we have, and he's also one of those guys who's been able to forge a connection with our fans. And people who are able to do that are very successful."

Justin Credible talks joining WWE in '94:

He says he was initially brought in to help train Brian (Fake Undertaker) Harris for the big summer feud that year...

"So basically they paid me $150 a day to go up there and be a crash test dummy for Brian Lee doing the impostor Undertaker. We did it all week and on Friday we did a dress rehearsal with Brian Lee in full Undertaker gear and Mark was sitting there and (Vince McMahon) and Pat Patterson, one of the bookers at the time, came down and saw the entire dress rehearsal and at the end, Pat and Vince come up to me and started asking me questions about where I was from, who trained me. But the next question they asked me was, what nationality I was. So I told Vince I was Portuguese and he said, "Ahhh, you're Portuguese, do you speak it?" I told him yeah absolutely and he laughed and said good and that was it. So low and behold I found out later they'd been fixing to do the Aldo Montoya gimmick anyway and they had it written up. So they were looking for a legitimate Portuguese kid to come in and do the gimmick and I was just the in the right place at the right time."
