Raw guest host tonight, Maria Menounos, has been injured already. The 31-year-old who hosts tonight with Access Hollywood anchor, Nancy O’Dell, wrote on her Twitter page that she has pulled her hamstring.
As we reported last week, it looks as though Menounos had been training for an in-ring performance tonight on Raw. Footage of her working out in a ring was posted on YouTube but later removed after it gained attention from the wrestling press.
In other tweets, Maria shows a genuine excitement for hosting tonight’s Raw: “Feel like a kid before Christmas morning,” she writes. I think it just goes to show she certainly has a passion for the industry and that’s always endearing, I’m looking forward to seeing her on Raw and really wish her the best!
- WWE Intercontinental Champ John Morrison defeated Dolph Ziggler. Maria was at ringside watching but didn’t become involved beyond taking a chair Ziggler had set up to “use later” and sitting on it. When Ziggler went for the chair and saw it wasn’t there, he was distracted, allowing Morrison to nail him with a kick for the win.
- Backstage, Maria asks Ziggler to speak to her. Ziggler tells her that he has a personal life and a professional one. He tells her he sees big things in his future, but she isn’t one of them and walks off. Maria starts to cry.
