Ehh...I know kid rock did a few projects with them but not sure if he deserves in the wwe Hof.


WWE.com posted the following today:

quote:

While his song “New Orleans” is setting the tone for the party atmosphere that WrestleMania is bringing to The Big Easy this year, Kid Rock will be taking his place in WWE history.

As first reported by Billboard.com, Kid Rock will join the WWE Hall of Fame’s Celebrity Wing as a member of the Class of 2018. He’ll be inducted into the hallowed hall on Friday, April 6, in New Orleans during WrestleMania 34 Week in The Big Easy. He joins Goldberg, The Dudley Boyz, Ivory, Jeff Jarrett, Hillbilly Jim and Warrior Award recipient Jarrius “JJ” Robertson among those being honored that night.

They induct a celebrity every year, most of whom have contributed very little to the company. He’s one of the more deserving ones.

Unbelievable. The WWE’s credibility is going to take a major hit with this move.

I had not a fricking clue that so many people still watched wrestling. Kinda got out of that phase in 4th grade.

This.

1.) He's provided several pay-per-view theme songs
2.) He's performed live at multiple pay-per-view
3.) His music has been used as wrestler entrance themes.

If he's undeserving for the celebrity wing, then frankly I don't know who is.

and I think Kid Rock being inducted along with Cena's promo last night means Taker will be back at Mania....with the biker taker gimmick

Actually...I think you may be right!

He did technically "retire" the deadman gimmick. But the American Badass is still technically available...

Wrestling is STOOOOPID!!!

Unless you’re someone who likes watching grown, steroid-infested, trashy dudes who put water in their hair to make it look like they’re actually doing something run around in underwear that’s 3 sizes too small for their body, but 3 sizes too large for their junk talk trash to each other and do the same schtick over and over again to where everyone knows how something’s gonna play out before it even happens... well, everyone except the announcers because EVERY SINGLE THING the wrestlers do is obviously an earth-shattering revolutionary surprise to those poor saps lol.

He would be in the inaugural class of the Trailer Park HOF too if it existed.

What credibility? It’s fake from the start. Probably just trying to spark controversy, which is what it draws ratings from...
