For some reason, WWE loves to have live musical performances at WrestleMania. Maybe its because they are harkening back to the Rock n Wrestling Connection. And Skylar Grey and Kid Ink performed the officials Mania themes, so at least they were there for a purpose. However, nearly every concert performance at WrestleMania deserves the same criticism of being woefully out of place and a waste of time. Basically, unless youre playing a wrestler down to the ring such as Living Colour for CM Punk or Motorhead for Triple H you really dont have much of a reason to be performing at WrestleMania. If WWE was so hellbent on having a musician perform at WrestleMania, have it at the tail end of the kick-off show to welcome fans to Mania, not right in the middle of the event to completely kill the momentum.
Scott is a former journalist and longtime wrestling fan who was smart enough to abandon WCW during the Monday Night Wars the same time as the Radicalz. He fortunately became a fan in time for WrestleMania III and came back as a fan after a long high school hiatus before WM XIV. Monday nights in the Carlson household are reserved for viewing Raw -- for better or worse.
