We were all watching the tail end of Monday Night Raw after rehearsal last night. (If you haven’t gathered from previous posts, we at Octavarius are pro-wrestling. Or I guess pro-pro-wrestling, to be more exact.) From what I gathered, last night’s Raw was hosted by none other than Meat Loaf, who was promoting a new album or movie or recipe or something. The important thing is that before too much plugging could take place Randy Orton Knocked. His. Ass. Out.
This is not at all the first instance of celebrities stepping into the ring to either embarrass themselves or cement their status as badasses. I was told that Shaq fairly recently wrestled Big Show, and we’ve previously covered Jeremy Piven and Ken Jeong getting thoroughly manhandled by John Cena. (If you haven’t seen the linked video yet, watch it; the carnage starts about 4:30 in.)
But I’m pretty sure that next week’s Raw is going to be both awesome AND depressing. Remember Buzz Aldrin? You know, legendary astronaut, American hero, and dancer-with-stars Buzz Aldrin?

Well Buzz is going to be hosting Raw this coming Monday. And the WWE seems to realize what a big deal this is, because they’re airing the show (which is already presented live) commercial-free. Don’t believe me? Prepare to feel sorry for an old man with no place to go but down.
I don’t know about you, but we’re certainly going to be watching this. I hope they answer my immediate question of how Mark Henry can breathe in space.
