Celebrity Inductee Confirmed For 2018 WWE Hall Of Fame Class

In a few weeks the stars of WWE will head to New Orleans for WrestleMania 34 on April 8, and on April 6 the Hall of Fame Ceremony will air live on the WWE Network.

It’s already been confirmed that Goldberg, The Dudley Boyz, Jeff Jarret, Ivory, and Hillbilly Jim will be inducted, and Jarrius “JJ” Robertson will also be receiving the Warrior Award. As fans know, each year there is a celebrity who also gets inducted into the Celebrity Wing, and WWE has confirmed that this year it will be Kid Rock.

WWE posted the following announcement highlighting Kid Rock’s contributions to the world of professional wrestling:

“His in-your-face style in the studio and on stage has made Kid Rock a big contributor to the soundtrack of the WWE Universe. Several of his songs have been the official themes for WWE pay-per-view events, including “Cocky” and the worldwide hit, “All Summer Long.” Kid Rock’s music has also been entrance music for a select few Superstars. The Undertaker used the 2000 single “American Bad Ass” as he thundered to the ring on his motorcycle, while Kid Rock’s cover of ZZ Top’s hit “Legs” blared through arenas around the world as Stacy Keibler made her way to the squared circle. He’s even brought his incomparable live show to WWE on several occasions, including a May 2000 edition of Monday Night Raw, a stellar performance at the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania, and a show for America’s armed forces during the 2012 edition of WWE’s most patriotic night of the year, Tribute to the Troops.”
