Glenn Jacobs (Kane) called out by AEW star after publicly opposing drag shows for all ages

Knox County, TN Mayor Glenn Jacobs (Kane in WWE) wrote the following on his Twitter account…

“Over the past couple days, my office has been flooded with calls concerning all-ages drag shows. Let me be clear: I don’t care what consenting adults do, but leave kids out of it. As Mayor, I will do everything I can to ensure these events don’t happen on Knox County property. Currently, however, no law on the books gives me authority to address what happens in private businesses. I do and will support any effort of our state legislature to prevent the sexualization of our children.”

Numerous people in the wrestling community responded to Jacobs’ comments and brought up how he was once involved in a necrophilia storyline (Katie Vick) on WWE television that was watched by children. AEW star Mike Bennett wrote the following…

“We took our 4 year old and 2 year old to a LGBTQ Festival here in the town I live in. There was a Drag Show. They had an absolute blast. They now refer to it as the Dragon Festival. My son will dress up w his sister in a Tutu and play with Monster Trucks. Let’s let kids be kids.”
