I never agreed with you about the standard of celeb involvement to begin with, so why should it be relevant how respectable any of those celebs are compared to Snooki?
All of those celebs can land on whatever lettered list you choose to class them. The WWE has never had a higher standard than Snooki, and she's pretty damn famous atm for their standards in any era. Just because they occasionally pulled stars that garner more respect, doesn't mean it's a lost motto. They would have done their best to book Snooki in 1985 or 1995. They go for fame, relevance, and colorful characters that attract attention. They'll take what they can get. The respectability is all your projection. |

Do you reall ythink they booked her for her respectability? I dont eat at Taco Bell because it is fancy, I eat there because it is food for 89 cents.
Snookie is famous right now for being a trashy skank whore. And tons of people watch that shit because it is such a train wreck. So the WWE is bringing her in, because it will draw a crowd, generate Buzz, and she will probably do anything. WHAT THE FUCK IS THE DEBATE HERE |

Isn't Jersey Shore the most watched MTV program ever? I thought I read that somewhere. Regardless, it's one of the hottest things that's been on TV in the last year or two. To say that Snooki is not really famous is ridiculous. You have to be living under a rock to not know who she is.

Man they should just build a balcony above the ring one night and have Dame Judy Dench in it.'she could open the show with a "Where are the gladiators to appease me"'and just give random thumbs up or down after matches.

The fact a wrestling promotion hasn't tried to hire me yet is proof that no-one of any significance in the wrestling world posts here.

Furthermore, it is easy to know of Jersey Shore, but not of Snooki.

I know who Snooki is and I live in England, where they show Jersey Shore on a weekly basis as a minimum (probably more if I cared to look it up). Y'think people knew all these other guests hosts? Bob Barker means shit outside of America. As do Al Sharpton, Ben Roethlisberger, Nancy O'Dell, Kyle Busch and Joey Logano, Mark Cuban, Dulé Hill, Carl Edwards, Jewel and Ty Murray, Cheech & Chong, Pete Rose, Rob Corddry, Clark Duke and Craig Robinson, Mark Feuerstein, Florence Henderson, Chad Ochocinco, Bobb'e J. Thompson, Toby Keith, Paul Reubens, Ariel Winter. That's not to say that *I* don't know who half of those people are because I am pretty intune with moder/pop culture. But you know why none of that matters? Because America is their MAIN AUDIENCE. |

okay,
Most of us in other parts of the world get a localized M-TV and not Snooki and co. Besides, is Jersey Shore PG? Look I no way expected WWE to be as high rated as House or Boston Legal but I didn't think it would be JUST slightly above some of the other trash on tv. I mean their production value is high, they are international but they rank so low. You see wrestlers on other shows , like Hulk on the roast of Hasslehoff and wasn't exactl the "big get" for the show. I guess its a matter of perspective, I'm not from the states so to me American TV trends tend no to apply. |

What does that have to do with your original (and ridiculous) post?
Which, by the way, is by no means "interesting" at all. |

firstly, if it was so uninteresting why the hell did you even bother replying to this thread?
All I'm saying is that for foreigners such as myself the perception of WWE and wrestling was that is was much more higher up than it actually is. The quality, or lack thereof , in guests lifts that veil. What is wrong in saying that? Some of you just need to chill the fuck out. Your opinion is only YOUR opinion. |

Jesus, most people on here need to get laid and stop being so up tight.
Snookie doesn't equal ratings and neither does the Jersey Shore, if it did TNA would have got ratings from it. This is fucking sports entertainment and like it or not it is seen by the entertainment business as a joke and hence there ain't gonna be any creditable celebs on ANY show. |

Precisely.
Your misguided opinion is that WWE was seen as something to be held in esteem in the field of entertainment. I have no idea what made you think this in the first place because you haven't made that all too clear. You're also passing YOUR opinion off as that of others. I'm a "foreigner" in so far as I'm not from the US but I don't share your take on WWE's place in the entertainment spectrum. It doesn't come off as anything but good ol' wrasslin' to me. This "revelation" that it isn't held in such regard, due to the caliber of Guest Host/Star is pretty moot as you're the only one that seems to think that wrestling is held in any kind of esteem by "Hollywood". Therefore it's only "interesting" to you. And why did I reply? To call you on your shit. That's what I do. |

The opening post is assanine and then the thread somehow managed to degenerate from there. Arguments about what consitutes being a celeb and what doesn't. He said/She said. And a whole host of posts about Snooki despite the fact that there is already a thread on the subject of her being on Raw. In fact, The MAC's opinion could have gone it there and this thread need not have existed in the first place. Now we have the same discussion going on in two threads. |

Aww...I missed the A-List argument. It's adorable some people atually believe Snookie's A-List.
Quote:
I think the only people who are bringing up the likes of Stewart or Streep are the folks who are trying to create a ridiculous version of the "other side's" argument in order to appear to easily defeat said argument. This thread certainly wasn't about how they used to have the likes of Sir Ian McKellan or Michael Caine, but about how they used to have the likes of Tyson, and now they have shitty reality TV stars and guys who are only famous because they fucked someone famous. Before you fuckwads start crying about all sorts of shit I didn't say, let's get some things I actually believe out of the way.

I think the drop from TYSON TO SNOOKIE is less of an indictment of the WWE and more of a statement on our society.

And lets not act like Tyson is this amazing star. He was a guy who bit someones ear off and was in prison for rape. That was his allure. Not that much better than "Famous for fucking someone famous"

You can't fall from somewhere you ain't never been. Tyson was already a household name, and continued to be, amazingly. It's not that taking a chunk out of a boxer did nothing, but it's not the whole story. It'd be like pretending Mel Gibson was famous for his rants, ignoring what actually put him into the spotlight for the rants to gain attention. Or Charlie Sheen and that couple of movies people sorta liked before he started going all batshit crazy. But hey, why tell the whole story? I keep forgetting, honesty has no place in the wrestling forum. On that note, John Cena is an A-List celebrity, the best technical wrestler in the world, and a legit shoot fighter who could take on all comers in MMA. What? But I really, really want it to be true! Disclaimer: Kane Knight does nto really, really want this to be true. |

Tyson WAS a household name 8 years prior. THen He went to jail for rape, and then got out and bit a guys ear off.
The WWE didnt bring him in as a celebrity, they brought him in as a CONTROVERSIAL celebrity. And thye brought him in to the biggest show of the year for 3 million. I just dont see it as a huge step down to have SNooki at raw. I cannot wait to see her fat ass look horrible on Raw. |

I have never seen a full episode of Jersey Shore, yet I know who all the characters are. Snooki is one of the most recognizable celebrities they have had with this guest host thing.
Deal with it. |

I don't understand why so many posters here feel like because they don't like someone, they have to argue against everything about that person including blatantly obvious facts. Hulk Hogan wasn't important, Snooki isn't famous. Who gives a shit? Are these the arguments that you use to develop your opinions of the world? If so, please go get yourself sterilized so you don't infect anyone else.
