Curse those Raw guest hosts who occasionally plague wrestling's biggest weekly. It's maddening to think WWE's most powerful minds believe drafting in a host of non-wrestling actors, politicians and even NASCAR drivers is a sure fire way to get everybody excited.

One of the worst offenders were The Three Stooges, or at least the latest update of the ancient comedy trio. Occurring long after the interminable 2009-2010 weekly run of the hosts on Raw, the Stooges invaded WWE in April, 2012. Fans in Washington did not react favourably to endless shills for the new movie or their slapstick antics.

Boos were audible and it's pretty clear that everybody in attendance just wanted poor Moe, Larry and Curly to go away, even if Will Sasso did do a pretty spot on Hulk Hogan impression. If anything, this appearance would have discouraged people from watching the movie the Stooges were there to promote.
