Im watching WM 2 at the moment while I type and I cant stand these celebrity moments. Joan Rivers is in the ring and zero percent of the crowd are even interested not to mention how awful she is reading her card. The fans have NO interest in these silly moments. I was looking forward to listening to Gorilla and Ventura on commentating and Vince is alongside some bimbo instead. This is a trend with Vince over the years, I get that he likes to glamourise WM with big names in show business but he never quite grasped the fact that the fans cared less. Im not talking about in ring celebrities like MR T and Mayweather its the ones he has guest announce and commentate, I hate it!

Some bimbo? You mean Susan St. James? How the hell is Susan St. James a bimbo? Do you even know what a bimbo is?
Hug's sake. I know you come across like a neanderthal a lot of the time, but try to be classy for once.

Fans might not care about it but mainstream media eats this sh*t up and it’s great exposure for WWE regardless of what you think. I’ve never had a problem with celebs being used for non in-ring purposes, I think WrestleMania 24 was the first time I’d ever seen Kim Kardashian and now she’s like the most famous woman in the world. The only celeb I can’t stand is Maria Menunos because I just find her annoying in general.

Similarly, I always hated the guest GM's he brought in about a decade ago. Unfortunately Vince is obsessed with anything he thinks will get him attention. The more eyes on him, the better. Bringing in celebrities for a guest role is a go-to for him.

There's been plenty of Celebrity Appearances that were either entertaining or ones that even aided in progressing their respective storylines.
• Mr. T at the first ever Wrestlemania?
• The recently departed Aretha Franklin and Ray Charles both singing at respective Wrestlemanias?
• Mike Tyson with DX/Stone Cold?
Then you have guests who I wouldn't call entertaining perhaps but they definitely brought in viewers and many people cared.
• Floyd Mayweather • Stephen Amell • Donald Trump (before everyone suddenly thought he was Satan reincarnated)
To say that no fans care about celebrities on WWE programming is a fallacy to say the least. I wonder how you could be so out of touch that Vince is more in touch than you.

I don't mind Celebs at Mania as long as they don't perform in a concert that takes up time.
The Raw guest GM phase a decade ago was much wore.

The celebrity involvement is eternally better than having Joey "Literally does nothing special besides be perverted in front of small children" Ryan be escorted to the ring by an army of grown men in genetalia costumes only to use his physical gentalia as a weapon in front of ten thousand people and thousands watching on payperview. Seriously. I'll take D-list celebrity any day over that horror from last nights. Plus sometimes it's actually good.

That crazy Vince had no idea how to run a wrestling company. No wonder the WWF never survived long enough to do a WrestleMania 3.
