Mayor Kane

My Life in Wrestling and Politics

De: Glenn Jacobs

Narrado por: Glenn Jacobs

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.

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

Glenn's the best

great, good listen, good read, views on politics are beyond most people's recognition. Kane for WWEHOF

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.

great listen

if you like politics and wrestling you will love this book. very well written, and narrated
