Bob Barker would be amazing, he needs to feud with DiBiase. If they're going to get the Osbournes, then all they really need is Ozzy, as he's the only money maker there and the only person people want to see.

Yeah, Prinze was pretty much just being used for his Hollywood connections. Which sucks, I don't really like any of his movies, but he seems a decent, likable, guy.

I am sorry though all this is really just a distraction that the WWE is just failing at coming up with a decent story line.

The Price Is Right, Bitch.

Bob Barker has been confirm as RAW's guest host on Sept 7th (Labor Day)!

Trish Stratus will be host the following week, Sept 14th, which takes place at the Air Canada Center.

So I was pretty bored when Trish was out talking to the audience, but when she had the promo with Jericho I found myself thinking back to the Jericho/Christian - Trish/Lita sex bet. Those two work well together. I also liked how Rhodes and Dibiase. . .

I'm gonna let finish Vald, but that guy in the audience had one of the best signs of all time.

Trish was sexy as ever Smile

Glad to see her back. She was ok, but I think Barker did the better job. Mickie should do commentary more often.

Trish did have a great promo with Jericho. No Diva can tell her off either since she's done more than anyone ever has done in the WWE. Mickie is hot on her heels with that too though Smile

Why does everyone hate Al Sharpton?

No, I actually know nothing about the man and am too lazy too google him.

No one interesting since Trish Stratus Sad

The Rock was rumored, due to Smackdown spoilers.

From what I read Rock just did a taped promo from his house. And that was just for the smackdown anniversary. He would never do a small one off appearance at raw.

The biggest rumor at the moment is that Vince is trying to talk Bret Hart into rejoining the company as an on air character, perhaps even the GM of RAW once the guest host play out. I have seen numerous reports about this, but there is no solid evidence that this will actually happen.

This I could see happening actually, he was apparently close to being shawn michaels partner in the Shawn vs vince match. But bret didn't think he could wrestle and was replaced by god. Maybe at least, this is second hand dirt sheet stuff afterall.

Holy crap RAW was painful to watch Monday night. The matches were ok, but the "humour", and Mark Henry's rap were just terrible. I did laugh when Jillian got flattened though. Also when the censors missed Miz saying "Fat Bastard", but that's not really a product of good writing.

RAW was terrible, and has been terrible for awhile.

The only reasons I watch it anymore are for HHH, HBK, and Evan Borne. Until they can restructure RAW, and not make it such a trainwreck every week, D-X should get the show to do whatever they want for 2 hours. All of their sketches over the last few months have been golden. Even the stupidity that is the Hornswaggle angle, they have made barable to watch.

I haven't watched Raw since Trish hosted and I turned that off after 30 minutes. They haven't done shit in ages to garner my attention, they just recycle the same feuds over and over. From the looks of it, I think Cena will be walking into Wrestlemania as champion AGAIN, and probably leaving with the title. Could be wrong, but I doubt it. It doesn't seem WWE has a brain when it comes to booking Cena at Mania, where 95% of the audience will BOO him, but whatever. From the way it looks, it's more of the same and until that changes FOR GOOD, I'm fucking done with Raw. ECW might be 3rd tier and no one in the company really gives a shit about, but they're putting on some of the best matches and best feuds I've seen for a while.

I haven't watched WWE or any wrestling since 2005. I hated the direction WWE was going. It was all "Triple H is now married to Stephanie: He gets what he wants even if it hurts the company. It was always shit like Triple H has the title, he loses it, you can bet he will get it back the next PPV. Like Shawn Michaels wins it in the first Elimination Chamber, guess who beats Shawn Michaels the next PPV?

It may not be like that now, but it ruined WWE for me when it was going on and Triple H was abusing his power.

I liked Triple H as the cowardly heel who will do ANYTHING to keep his belt, and it made sense when he was feuding with guys like Kane and Steiner to hold onto the belt. I was one of the guys booing Cena out of the building at WM22 when Triple H was facing him. But now? Awful. He's a shell of his former self, can barely hit the Pedigree correctly, yet booked stronger than ever. Shawn has actually been good when it comes to the title, he's said no on many occasions to another reign, as he actually wants to put people over. But Triple H and Cena...it's too fucking much. It never ends, they're always both the focal point for some goddamn reason, with no end in sight.

Trips isn't bad at all these days, he's completely horrendous in 2000 and 03 though.

I prefered him as the egotistical heel to the nonsense he does nowadays

His '08 title reign was one of the worst I've ever seen.

Title: Alexz Aficionado Joined: May 21 2008 Posts: 2889

I cared about Trish Stratus(still super hot and can work) and Jesse Ventura(tell Vince how it REALLY is).

Otherwise, no. Few have been noteworthy. Barker was totally worth it.

Seeing as I can't remember any but those 3, they really need to find real "celebrities" to host.
