Fascinating WWE Ideas That Flopped HARD!
7. Raw Guest Hosts
Throwing a little bit of star power from outside of the world of wrestling onto WWE programming can lead to some incredibly bizarre but undeniably brilliant television.
However, as highlighted throughout the massively hit-and-miss Raw Guest Host era, if said "guests" hadn't the slightest clue or interest in the business they were stepping into for a few hours, the end result could be disastrous.
For every wonderful instance of worlds colliding when the likes of Shaquille O'Neal and Bob Barker took on the authority figure role for the evening, there was unfortunately an excruciating Jeremy Piven or Ricky Hatton appearance right around the corner.
A quick look at the WWE landscape today shows what possibly could have been had the company managed to actually lure in more celebrities who genuinely adored all things sports entertainment.
Stars like Logan Paul, Bad Bunny, and Snoop Dogg regularly bring casual eyes in - as hosts, wrestlers, or both - whilst simultaneously giving their all to entertain those paying their hard-earned dollar to watch some WWE madness unfold.
Back in the late 2000's and early 2010's, though, an initially quite fascinating concept ultimately made Monday nights a consistently tough watch thanks to way too many disinterested, awkward, or unwanted guests.
