#1 Worst: The Kiss Demon - who the hell knows? - WCW
Trending
Ugh.
Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?
So, remember how we were talking about how WCW loved to get celebrities involved, but never actually knew how to use them - or overestimated how over they’d get with their fans. Nowhere is this better exemplified than with the debacle that was the KISS Demon.
WCW President Eric Bischoff is a huge fan of the band KISS and, in 1998, struck a deal with the band to perform a live concert on a WCW new year’s special and introduce a new character based on them. Instead, KISS played one song at the end of an episode of Nitro, and the Demon was revealed. It was the lowest rated Nitro segment in history.
The contract with KISS included a clause that the KISS Demon would wrestle in at least one PPV main event - which happened in a “special main event” match against The Wall - in the fourth match of SuperBrawl 2000, which the Demon lost.
Just the worst.
