— “Home Alone” star Macaulay Culkin made a cameo appearance on Monday’s RAW. He emerged from the lockerroom after Chavo Guerrero suffered the “paint can in the face” prank established in the famous comedy.
— As was noted in the Variety write-up on WWE RAW, the celebrity hosting concept is also being used to establish WWE as a mainstream, PG source of entertainment, which should prove helpful in attracting family audiences and garnering lucrative sponsors.
“We’re letting them feel safe with the PG environment,” said Stephanie McMahon. “By bringing in the celebrities, we’re saying, ‘If it’s OK for them, it’s OK for you too.'”
— “At the show tune into monday night raw u may see something different about me,” wrote The Miz prior to Monday’s show. The note was a reference to his new brief-style ring tights.
