This Week's RAW Rating Is In, ESPN Blasts Mark Cuban/RAW, More

On today's edition of ESPN's Around the Horn, the subject of Mark Cuban hosting Raw last night was discussed. Host Tony Reali joked that Sheamus did what every NBA referee wanted to do (putting Cuban through a table) and also said that Cuban looked to have fun. Tim Cowlishaw said that while he doubted it did anything to help Dallas Mavericks ticket sales, that it was mark Cuban being mark Cuban, thinking outside the box, and noted he didn't think it hurt anything. Bob Ryan did not approve at all, noting that Cuban should not be associated with wrestling, due to the fact that "wrestling is ripe with the corpses of steroid ridden people." He also stated that Cuban should not be associated with the WWE. Woody Page stated that while Cuban likes to think outside the box, he had no business being in a wrestling ring. He said that the WWE was fixed entertainment, while the NBA was a legitimate sport, and due to that, Cuban shouldn't be involved.
