Why in the hell did WWE think a Kid Rock concert in 2009 would be anything but a disaster.

I don't remember this Kid Rock performance being this awful. Nobody in the crowd cares. Even for Sweet Home Alabama, it's mostly dead. And I can't believe how long they let this go on for. Seriously if anything, Sweet Home Alabama should've been the only song performed.

Oh god, they're doing another song?

Wait, so the Kid Rock concert ends and it just cuts to all the divas brawling in the ring, already in the middle of their match? And oh my god, this was the Santina match. Poor crowd. Money in the bank match was pretty good and then you get Kid Rock and a gigantic random diva battle royal match with Santina.

Wow there were so many good divas in this match. They could've done something really cool for the divas match at this Mania, but I guess Santina was more important. :(

They probably needed something to draw attention away from Tammy Sytch looking all drugged out or something.

Slow talking, "you people," heel Jericho was dumb, and so was the whole The Wrestler angle, but drat if he didn't try his best to make Piper and Snuka look good. And then the few minutes with Steamboat are awesome.

Of course, WWE had to run it into the ground and actually put him in a match with Jericho at Backlash.

Maybe. I wasn't really watching at the time this was all going on. It just seems so weird compared to everything else he's done.

Then how can you say that gimmick sucked if you didn't even watch it. That makes no sense.

Because the bits of it I have seen I didn't like. And seeing more shows from that time period now hasn't changed my mind. I don't know the leadup to it though, so maybe it was better than what he'd been doing prior.


Did Matt Hardy come out to Monster Magnet or just a soundalike?

DeathChicken

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

Monster Magnet. He kept that song forever too, so I'm guessing they either weren't paying attention or WWE traded Dave Wyndorf lifetime use of it for a bag of shrooms.

My completely unsupported theory is that Vince has hated the name "Wrestlemania" for awhile and so subconsciouslly tries to sabotage it every year. But a few of the boys still manage to put on a hell of a show and thwart him.

Newly born-again HBK must've been tiring to be around. Descending from heaven only to have "Sexy Boy" kick in is hilarious though.
