– At press time, while WWE sources are fairly confident that the company would be able to book “Stone Cold” Steve Austin as a RAW guest host during his Hollywood downtime, they are not so certain about Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who remains committed to distancing himself from WWE as part of his A-list Hollywood career.
In any event, while WWE is always interested in featuring names like Austin and The Rock on its programs, it remains unclear how interested the company would be in booking them for one-and-out appearances on RAW. WWE has several celebrities potentially lined up who are either wrestling fans or recognizable names with something to plug, so many feel the wrestling star power of big names like Rock and Austin would better be utilized in spiking a pay-per-view buyrate.
