Kane RETURNS to Destroy Triple H & The Regime! WWE RAW 5/29/00 Review

This week on Tales from the Attitude Era, former WWF writer Tommy Blacha and co-host Rob Pasbani head north to Vancouver for the May 29, 2000, episode of RAW is WAR! It’s a Memorial Day classic featuring one of the hottest (and most anti-American) crowds of the year.

We break down the massive return of Kane, who interrupts a chaotic lumberjack brawl between The Rock, Undertaker, and the McMahon-Helmsley Faction. Plus, Too Cool shocks the world by defeating Edge & Christian for the Tag Team Titles with help from Kid Rock's hype man, Joe C!

We also dive into:

- Kurt Angle's legendary nuclear heat promo insulting Ben Johnson, the Grizzlies, and Canadian healthcare.

- A discussion on WWE's history with Canadian customs and immigration lawyers.

- The "Cold Spot" match that the crowd ignored to chant for "Puppies."

- Chris Benoit vs. Hardcore Holly in an incredibly stiff bout.

- The mystery of who is attacking Vince McMahon, Road Dogg, and Pat Patterson backstage.

- The Kat returns to join The Godfather and Dean Malenko.
