JR Blogs on The Rock and Steve Austin Hosting RAW

Posted by Marc Middleton on Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

- WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has udpated his jrsbarbq.com blog with his thoughts on whether WWE legends Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Stone Cold Steve Austin would return for a night to guest host an episode of RAW.

Regarding Johnson, Jim Ross said he was under the impression that The Rock was going to guest-host an episode of Raw in January, but scheduling conflicts “eliminated that opportunity.” Johnson’s new “Toothfairy” movie comes out this month, which would have been the promotional tie-in for Johnson to guest-host. Commercials for Johnson’s “Tooth Fairy” movie have been seen during all WWE shows over the past two weeks.

Johnson said two months ago that he was working on a TV project with WWE beyond just guest hosting RAW for 1 week. Johnson has yet to provide an update on the status of the project.

As for Steve Austin, JR also said he “assumes” Steve Austin will guest host RAW, possibly in March to help promote Austin’s new straight-to-DVD film “Damage” (and of course, WrestleMania).

    random note, but who thinks wwe should change their hall of fame format? instead of having be a one-off thing, they should add more prestige to it, they should have a section in the crowd or on stage where all the living hall of famers( atleast the ones that will show up). Or at wrestlemania, they should have all the living members( again that will show up) in the ring while the new members are introduced on stage.—-just a random note, tell me what you think…

    I agree Jimmy Dean. If the Hall of Fame is so special and they want to show the honor that it should be to be a part of it, they should have all the legends that will come attend. That way people begin to get to know who they were who are younger. Good point.
