Ezekiel, Elias’ younger brother, had a very eventful RAW this week at the Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville, TN.
After interrupting Randy Orton’s 20th Anniversary segment, Ezekiel was part of the 8-Man Tag Team Match Main Event with himself, Cody Rhodes & RK-Bro vs. Kevin Owens, Seth Rollins & The Usos. You can click here to view the full RAW results.
WWE also released an exclusive video of Ezekiel’s encounter with WWE Hall of Famer Kane (Glenn Jacobs) prior to the live episode of RAW. As seen below, Kane was preparing to answer questions about RAW’s return to his home state when Ezekiel interrupted the Knox County mayor.
“I’m really sorry to interrupt, I just wanted to introduce myself,” Ezekiel said to Kane. “I am Elias’ younger brother.”
Kane replied, “I’ve seen your work. You are way more talented than your older brother. Also, Elias said some terrible things about Knoxville the last time he was here.”
Ezekiel made it clear that he was not like his brother while praising the city of Knoxville.
“Not me, sir. I love Knoxville,” he said. “It really is a beautiful city. I have nothing but respect for you. The way Kane would kick ass, I just loved it…”
Kane, dropping Ezekiel’s name, prompted Jacobs to answer, “Who?”
“Kane, the great red machine,” Ezekiel replied.
This led to Jacobs clarifying that he and Kane are not the same person.
“Kane? Oh yes, I’ve heard of him,” Jacobs said. “Hall of Famer, one of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time, but I’m not Kane. I’m Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs, nice to meet you.”
The segment ended with Ezekiel looking perplexed.
