Wrestling star, Kane, elected mayor in Tennessee

World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) star, Glenn Jacobs, popularly known as Kane, has been elected the mayor of Knox County, Tennessee.

Kane reportedly defeated Democratic nominee Linda Haney in the Knox County mayoral race on Thursday, according to unofficial returns.

Speaking to attendees of his watch party at Crowne Plaza in downtown Knoxville, Jacobs said he doesn’t normally use wrestling analogies for a campaign.

“But this professional wrestler got into a no-holds-barred, last-man-standing match, and when the bell rung, he was victorious,” he said.
