I thought it was funny myself, especially the episode with the lie detector and him passing it somehow,ha. I did get to go Mr.America's last match at MSG in June of 2003 teaming with Brock and Kurt vs. Show/Shelton/Haas on Smackdown which was cool and during SD's prime years. I was at the show also , my first ever WWE event . I have this vague memory of him body slamming Big Show after the show was over - did that happen ? It did, he slammed Show and I vaguely remember him posing with Lesnar before doing it solo, that is the part that was shown on TV the following week to explain Mr.America's "firing" by McMahon.

It gave someone with genuine star power something to do whilst not impacting the main event of the product.
Harmless fun, something wrestling should be more often.

I enjoyed it. Reminded me a lot of the Machines. Giant Machine, Hulk Machine, and Piper Machine were totally not Andre, Hogan, and Hot Rod, you guys!

It gave Hogan context to be a complete goofball.
And that's something that was kind of needed with him in the 2000s.

It was over the top goofy and some good fun.
Ended quite abruptly

It was over the top goofy and some good fun. Ended quite abruptly I thought the way they booked the ending to the character was stupid. It would have been better for the heels in that angle, like Piper or Vince, to unmask him and then fire him in the spot right there. I didn't like how Hogan just unmasked himself like that, even though it was totally obvious that it was him all along.

Kinda hard to follow through to a logical conclusion under those circumstances.

How long did it last for? Surely it was only a matter of a few weeks?
