Possible Venue for WrestleMania in 2012, Jim Ross Gives Ideas for RAW Hosts

- With celebrity names ranging from MC Hammer to Floyd Mayweather to Bob Barker appearing in reports about potential hosts for WWE RAW, veteran announcer Jim Ross took to his blog to give his personal suggestion for guest hosts.

“Mike Ditka, Michael Irvin, selected WWE HOF’ers, Dr Drew, Dr. Phil, Nancy Grace, Bill O’Reilly, Siegfried and Roy,” suggested Ross, adding that he would be open to anyone with something to plug, “other than the plugs in their scalp….not that there is any thing wrong with that Jeremy [Piven].”

- Take this for what it’s worth but early last week at the Rogers Center in Toronto, a TV in the concourse had a logo that some employees saw for WrestleMania 2012 at the building. The logo was seen when the stadium was closed and only some employees were there. With WrestleMania in 2010 being held in Phoenix and 2011 rumored to be in Indianapolis, Canada makes sense for 2012. If WrestleMania is held in Toronto, it would be ten years since the last WrestleMania in the city with 2002′s featuring The Rock vs. Hulk Hogan.

    I wanna see Dr. Phil do it. Dr Drew could host smackdown and give jeff hardy some treatment.

    thumper, i think i speak for most of the canadians on this blog when i say that the Skydome not “rogers centre” will have the dome open and it will still blow the roof off of any wrestlemania out there, with the main event being Edge vs Christian……….there i said it.
