Over the years, WWE has had a number of celebrity appearances. Some were good, such as Bob Barker. Some were bad, such as Jeremy Piven and Dr. Ken. But, have any of these celebrity wrestling appearances ever changed your opinion of the celebrity for better or worse? For me, I came to really detest Bradley Cooper after his appearance on Raw. He came off as super elitist and looked like he would have rather slit his own wrist than be there that night.

I have a soft spot for Hugh Jackman now because of how much fun it looked like he was having.

Loose definition of “celebrity”, but Kevin Federline was used magnificently and looked like he was having a great time. I thought it certainly helped his look as the sane one during a pretty ugly divorce.

As a Scot, I would never have heard of Bob Uecker if not for Mania III and IV, and he's a blast there.
Ditto Pete Rose tbh.

Like, I couldn't believe it was happening and how great it was. |

Well, I always thought Mr T was maybe a touch eccentric, but after his HoF speech... woof.

I figured Maria Menounos was just a pretty talking head they got because she was a recognizable name from Entertainment Tonight or whatever she was on. She was always pleasant in her appearances though, and seemed to respect the product.
Her reciting the goddamn Hard Times promo TO DUSTY made it clear that she wasn't just a celebrity who liked being involved, but a legit hardcore fan.

She got booed, to the point of people in the section we were in, feeling bad, when she inducted Bob Backlund into the HOF. Some people around us, were thinking she made the moment more "about her", than Bob, but, people did feel bad. |

I can’t hate on Bradley Coopers thing just cause I try and empathize and imagine having to do something I have absolutely no interest in, and yeah, I get it.
Ashton came off cool. I guess. But that guys a really good guy IRL besides all his acting shenanigans.
As a kid, the Tyson thing endeared me to him at a time when I really wasn’t a fan.

I thought it certainly helped his look as the sane one during a pretty ugly divorce. Honestly, Kevin understood exactly what he was there to do, and went all-in with it. I thought it was one of the best uses of a celebrity they've ever had. They knew the fans wanted to see him get murdered. And he did.

I will ALWAYS have time for Maria being on WWE TV because she is clearly a giant f***ing mark. |

I associate Pete Rose with Kane more than his baseball career and controversy revolving around it.
