The celebrity involvement on this year's show got me thinking. When in past Wrestlemanias could a celebrity have been figured in on the card? Not just matches but maybe an appearance, run-in or playing someone to the ring.
The obvious potential matches we could have seen were Mickey Rourke vs Jericho & Big Show vs Shaq. But who else and when?
I always felt Fred Durst should have been in the 6 man tag at X7 teaming with the APA vs the Right to Censor. He could have done that or played Taker to the ring. He even made the Smackdown video game released that year.

X7 Would have made more sense there. But don't get me wrong I loved the performance at 19. Love them 2 Manias, so awesome & Bizkity.

Kid Rock is awful, but I still wanted Undertaker to go back to the ABA gimmick for WrestleMania 34 and have (newly inducted HOFer) Kid Rock play him down to the ring.

Good idea, would have freshened up Taker a fair bit. From 2017 on he was a shell of himself really, it was disappointing. A return to the brawling sh*t kicking deadman was needed. I was also surprised Kid didn't do a performance at 30 or 34 since his songs were the themes of each show, they even used 2 of his at 34.

It freaking sucked that Jennie Garth got the spot on Wrestlemania X when Luke Perry was the big wrestling fan of 90210. If I could change a celebrity around, I would have taken Jennie out and had Luke there. He would have had a blast!

Didn't have to be a Wrestlemania but I always wanted to see Kenan & Kel on WWF in some form

if i had money or connects id somehow get ahold of Paige Van Zant & Chanel West Coast and make them hot little blonde tag team! they look kinda alike and coming out in all kinds of skimpy clothing would be a bit hit and money gold! both are pretty athletic as well.
also dolph ludgren in the 80's maybe.
surprised fighter Bob Sapp never came to wwf!

Stallone at WM XV in Philly. He would most likely be involved with the dreaded Brawl for All stuff but still imagine the POP

Schwarzenegger is reportedly a big wrestling fan. I’m surprised Arnold never had a match at some point. WMs 7, 12, and 16 would have made sense considering they were in California.

Would have been kind of cool if Pete Rose had had an actual match. He wouldn't have had to do too much.

Did Drew Carey ever have a match? Never one on one. Only ''match'' he was in was the 01 Rumble match.

What if instead of Mr. T, it was Sylvester Stallone?

What if instead of Mr. T, it was Sylvester Stallone? Would Jackie Stallone be his manager? Hogan got Frank Stallone for his Celebrity Championship Wrestling show as a consolation prize.

Vince Sr said no but I would think had Kauffman lived, Jr would have done something with him. Eerie that Vince Sr and Kauffman died like a week or so apart.
