It will be interesting to see how the crowd reacts to Kyle Bush. He is the heel of NASCAR so it will be interesting to see if that translates to the WWE

Buffalo, NY isn't exactly a NASCAR hotbed so it probably will be mild booing, if any. Now if they were down south then that would be a different story. Still, should be good - especially post-PPV.

they need to end this quick, i don't like how the show is being about the hosts instead of the wrestlers.

Its hardly about the guest hosts who are used about 3x the whole night - just like Teddy and Tiffany.
Plus, its not ending anytime soon. The ratings are better than before the guest host idea came along and they are getting lots of mainstream press. Not to mention that USA is very happy with the idea which was pushed by one of their executives. On top of that, celebrities and their agents are seeing RAW as an alternative to the usual talk show circuit shows as a place to promote their latest movie, album, book, etc. Lots of reasons why it won't end soon. In fact, they already have some celebrities booked for December and are looking at a January date for Rock to guest host.

i have an idea to make the ratings on RAW better
it involves getting rid of hornswoggle, putting good matches, and pushing wrestlers based on their talent and not their size or weight.
sorry if i'm angry ... just ticked at vince for taking a long time and how nigel decided to sign with tna and already was on the tapings and beating up kurt angle ... rumors says danielson will follow, although i hope not.
sad day for the wwe.

Honestly, I don't think Vince cares that he lost those guys to TNA. All he cared about was to reduce ROH's rise, just like he did with Cabana. He's not concerned about TNA and knows that they won't do anything right with those guys anyway. Even if they do, who'll know or see it? LOL! Those guys were small for WWE and Vince likes the bigger wrestlers so they probably didn't have much future in WWE beyond ECW but one thing is for certain - that they decided to go to TNA while talking to or negotiating with WWE probably eliminates any chance that we will ever see them in WWE. So, its win-win for Vince - TNA adds payroll and absorbs them, ROH loses them. Its just Vince's MO of how he either reduces or eliminates his competition. In the 70s and 80s, he bought out territories and promotions. In the 90s, he bought out their libraries. Now he just buys out ROH's top guys and sticks them in his minor leagues until he decides if they're worth bringing up or releasing and he's always the big money / real main event promotion for those in TNA that grow tired of their little show (see Booker T, Christian).

believe me,even if Vince doesnt sign these talents now,at some point,he will get them.he always does.TNA and ROH are just stopping grounds for the newer talent in the business and the dying washed up former talent(have you seen TNA's roster?)

sad day for the wwe. Hornswoggle is not going anywhere but I have to believe His image as Finlay's son and the leprchaun are gone. I see Him being being a MiniMe to Raw Hosts or other superstars and being paired with Santino Moreela who I believe is one of, if not the most entertaining and funny jobber character ever.

Kyle and Joey were decent as guest hosts. Good crowd reaction. Loved the entrance, love the RAW and SD cars and will look forward to seeing them race them at Texas on Nov. 7. Kyle seemed to have trouble remembering all his lines but Joey came across as very natural. Cool to see Kyle favoring the bad guys while Joey favored the good guys.
Next week's hosts should be good - Sharon and Ozzy!! Should be interesting to see how many lines he'll be able to remember and say that we can all understand. LOL!

Ozzy and Sharon were decent hosts but I found that they were real good sports for playing up some of their TV stuff including having Hornswoggle play as their son Jack. Pretty cool stuff for what it was. I liked Jericho's backstage segment with them. He had been looking forward to it all day and the pic he put up on Twitter of he and Ozzy was cool.
Next week, Ricky Hatton as guest host for RAW in England. Should be interesting.

tonight's raw from the garden was ok at first, I really enjoyed the finish, 1st with Kingston and Orton going at all over the garden, & Kingston taking his persona to a new level by really taking it to Orton and then the triple threat tag team match was also a good match with of course the Undertaker stealing the show, overall not a bad night at the garden wish I was there
