Katie Vick probably has to take the cake for me. Being objective, it's at least up there in the top 10 somewhere. Other than being a tasteless and stupid storyline, it contradicted literally every aspect of Kane's character and backstory. The feud between Kane and Triple H was supposed to be about the unification of the WHC and IC Championship. You would think that would be an important enough reason to feud all on it's own but because they were on a soap opera/shock TV kick around this time (other examples being the gay wedding, HLA and the Al Wilson stuff around the same time frame), they felt the need to add ridiculous soap opera material into it. The result was an angle so bad that WWE hasn't made a single reference to it to this day (correct me if I'm wrong.)

They made one reference on those Anger Management Sessions last week.

I know right, Didn't hear any real crowd reaction so they probably didn't remember or know about it.

Yeah. But it was a funny segment, for sure.

Oh by far, that was the greatest segment I've witnessed in the last couple of years. Kane is such a good wrestler for comedy.

Hope no one says PG era was a stupid thing. I'm sick of people complaining about it because I don't see what was wrong with it. So, I hope no one says that was one of them.

Turning PG in itself wasn't bad, aiming the product towards kids is a bad thing though.

I completely agree.
While going after the child demographic may seem harmless, its starting to alienate the life-long adult fans that dont have kids.
