When Goins met Glenn Jacobs in the early 1990s, he was far from a household name. He was an unheralded heavyweight grinding on independent wrestling circuits, competing under various forgettable monikers such as Angus King and Unabomb. The couple dated as Jacobs fought through developmental promotions and brief, rocky stints in the World Wrestling Federation as Mike Unabomb and Isaac Yankem, DDS.
They married on August 23, 1995. Two years later, the WWF launched the Kane persona at the Badd Blood pay-per-view in October 1997, instantly making Jacobs an international star. The sudden success brought a brutal travel schedule. WWE talent frequently worked 250 to 300 days a year on the road during the Attitude Era. While Jacobs lived in airports, hotels, and arenas across continents, Goins managed their home base in Tennessee, ensuring their domestic life stayed insulated from backstage politics.
