2. The Anonymous Raw General Manager
Argh! Why was this ever thought to be a good idea? The Anonymous Raw General Manager would chime in far too often on Raw, via email. A laptop was handily set up next to the commentary booth at the side of the ring, and whenever the man behind the messages pleased, the lights would dim in the arena and we'd get that insanely irritating iPhone text alert blare through our speakers. But while WWE could have actually turned this into some kind of significant storyline, they appeared to just blatantly lose interest in the pay off. Michael Cole used the laptop repeatedly as a way to get heat by reading out the emails to the crowd, and instructing what was about to go on. The trouble is, the anonymous Raw GM actually turned out to be... Hornswoggle. Yep, that's right. Hornswoggle. WWE had looked to phase the laptop out of business with a fight for power between Triple H and John Laurinaitis instead taking over, and they eventually decided to pick Vince McMahon's illegitimate son as the man behind the screen. Needless to say, that didn't go down well. Robots might take over the world one day, but jeez. A computer, powered by Hornswoggle... was the boss?
