Oh god no, Guest host is becoming an absolute joke now!!!

"The Muppets come to Raw on Halloween night

What will happen when Kermit the Frog meets The Viper? Will the Divas make Miss Piggy flip with jealousy? Will Beaker be confused for Sheamus? On Halloween, it’s time to play the music, it’s time to light the lights, because the Muppets are about to get Raw!"

The muppets are great

The mappets should be no where near a wrestling ring, just when wrestling was maybe getting cool again thanks to Punk they go and do this - DAM

On a separate note I thought Hugh Jackman the other night was good, It actually worked.

its gonna be horrible, bloody Kermit doing backstage interviews! Miss piggy will give the bellas a beaten for looking that Kermit the wrong way! Santino and Fozzy bear having a cr*p joke off! Statler and Waldorf as the announce team!

I can see it now....

Statler and Waldorf vs Air Boom, 2 of them are 2D tv characters who's main demographic is below the age of 10, the other 2 are Statler and Waldorf

Knowing wwe they will have a way of getting the muppets in the ring which will be even worse

Max Moon still about?

I can imagine Cena and Kermit winning a tag match main event, against Miz and Truth.

That said since since the guest hosts are normally poor, it wouldn't suprise me if Kermit did a decent job of making matches.

I thought Hugh Jackman did a great job the other night, some parts looked impulsive a came off well, if only they had decent actors on every week. I take it Zack Ryder will dress up as Van Helsing for the Halloween show then.

It's the Halloween show and none of you have mentioned "The Count"..I am disappointed.

I can see it now. 1 Little Jimmy...HA HA HA....2 Little Jimmy's...HA HA HA...etc

The Count was Sesame Street wasn't it?

In all seriousness, I have no idea how they are going to work this. I mean you can guess the spots already:

1. Miss Piggy slapping one of the Diva's
2. Cena and Kermit in some kind of "comical" stint.

But come on, the muppets can't be involved in a match or any in-ring segment (it will be a bloke crouching in a box working kermit).

Maybe that's the reason they are doing it. Young (REAL young) kids will lap it up, and other fans will want to watch the car crash TV.

I know the Muppets pulled huge numbers of TV viewers in the past, and had many a guest star appear. But, them appearing on RAW????????? It is like one of the Teletubbies appearing on Question Time.

You're right.

In that case, this is guaranteed to be a failure. The Count would have made the show. The Muppets won't.

Oh and I'm calling it now.

Ms. Piggy will be involved in a skit with Vickie.

CM Punk and Cookie Monster to have a naming rights row?

What a rrrrruusssssshhhhhh!

Its Animal!

Kermit on commentry with JR might be a laugh.

Awesome Truth will have a back stage skit with a few of them.

The French Chef and Booker T in a "Trying to understand the f*ck you are saying" competition?

And all this talk of the Muppets has put the Muhna Muhna song in my head.

That'll be the entrance music for the main event.

Hugh Jackman actually worked - he was over with the crowd, got involved and gave the fans what they wanted - WWWYKI The Muppets just wont work . save the guest star for maybe 3/4 times a year with actual famous people who will be over - have 1 on the first Raw of the year, have 1 the week before Wrestlemania , have 1 a week before/after SummerSlam and have 1 just before/after Survivor Series

It's hardly only just becoming a joke....it's been a joke for most of its existence.

I'd love to see this from The Count

''John Cena, 1 move of doom....HA HA HA....2 moves of doom.....HA HA HA.....3 moves of doom...''

Ahhhhhh!!!!!!! The Count is fecking Sesame Street!!!!!!!!

I really should not get riled but I would take Sesame Street over the Muppets anyday. In fact I think some kind of backstage stint between Burt and Ernie, and HHH could provide comedy gold.

....or not

I know it'll be shockingly bad, I know it's combining two things that should never ever meet.

But I just loved the Muppets!
I want Swedish Chef in conversation with the Great Khali, I want Gonzo the Great firing out of a cannon at Mark Henry, I want Sam the Eagle in an eyebrow match v Santino, I want Miss Piggy karate chopping Kelly Kelly into the middle of next week for looking at her little Kermy, I want Statler and Waldorf on commentary declaring a Cena match is the best thing going before then ripping it apart, I want the curtains to go up at the beginning of the show and have all the wrestlers singing along!

I have now lost all faith in you. I demand a new election. The absoulte WORSE thing would be that the next week on RAW we will be pining for Statler and Waldolf on commentry. If it is as good as you say it would be, we will all not get over the sense of loss.

Cena v Kermit in a steel cage would be awesome!

LOLOLOL, thanks Hero, that's the best laugh I've had all day!

Fozzy could come back for one night only and have a band-off with the Muppets Band! Dolph and Vickie could be in an episode of "Pigs in Space"!

QUESTION!

Who would rather they bring back the Muppets and replace the RAW slot?

Maybe they need something a bit soft since it materialised (source : The Metro) that Hugh Jackman fractured Dolph Ziggler's jaw when he punched him on Monday night.

I thought it looked like a hard shot when I was watching it

The Muppets are coming to Raw
