Kane to run for Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee

Former two times World champion Kane made it official on Tuesday speaking to a crowd at Sweet P’s Barbecue and Soul House announced his intention to look for the Republican nomination for mayor.

The 2018 election for Knox County mayor will be for an open seat to replace the current mayor Knox County Tim Burchett. The 52-year-old became mayor of Knox County on 2010.

Kane aka Glenn said;

“As Knox County mayor I promise to keep taxes low and make Knox County a place everyone can be proud of,” Jacobs promised. “I see my role as that of a facilitator among the different communities in our area. And also I think that Mayor (Tim) Burchett has done a very good job with transparency in government and I would continue along those lines.”

Tennessee has been Jacob’s residence for over past two decades; the same amount of time he had been spending in the WWE.

“For the past 22 years I’ve had the pleasure of living here in East Tennessee,” Jacobs said Tuesday. “Because my career with the WWE has taken me all around the world on a weekly basis, me family and I could live pretty much anywhere in the U.S.”

“We live here because we want to,” Jacobs said to applause. “We live here because we love it here.”

Kane and his wife Crystal own an insurance agency in the Knoxville area. He took time off of WWE later last year to promote his insurance agency. Fans speculated him to be an entrant in the Royal Rumble match but he did not appear.

It might not be a good news for the Kane fans. Kane joining politics means he will now take him aside of wrestling. Fans are also speculating that the former two times world champion might retire from wrestling soon.
