I wanna know who got over from this segment, who did it benefit? Developed Ted Jr. to be more like his father.

I can sit through somebody being Torn to Pieces in a Movie no Problem..
But as soon as Eyeballs are envolved i get all Screamish.. I actually had to walk out the Room ¬.¬
If i wanted to see that type off Stuff, I'd watch Ripleys believe it or Not, Or something like that

RT, I agree that the segment was done to get Ted over, but I don't think it necessarily worked they way it was intended. I think the goal was "boo him, he's rich and buys what he wants".
What I think we got was "YAY, he made this segment go away!"

Can we talk about the real awfulness of the segment how off the Great Kahli was in his timing on "Putting on the Ritz"

I found it gross and exploitative. It reminded me uncomfortably of a freak show where physical difference was on display for people's entertainment.
I also didn't see the point of it at all. It got no-one over; it wasn't entertaining; it was just plain embarrassing and out-of-touch carnie shit.

I did not see Raw, but was Jacob Goodnight involved with the segment? Somehow no, but, "I SEE..." Fixed.

Other than Ted wanting to buy the eye and Virgil mega selling the whole segment was a low for Raw and just proves why guest hosts are no longer needed, definitely now that he have the vegetable GM Bret Hart.Some guest hosts were actually good(Barker,Shaq,Wayne Brady to name a few) but its just ridiculous now and is now longer needed.

The eye dealy was weird and dragged the segment down. Khali and Ranjin Singh doing Puttin' on the Ritz was gold though, and Ted, Virgil and Santino worked alright.

I would like them to keep the guest hosts away from live crowds now. Lovitz would have been fine in just backstage segments. I found his talent search thing pointless, unfunny and awkward. The only laugh I got was when Jillian immediately got buzzed. Hey, expanding on a joke that's been done every week for the past year was enough to get a laugh!
I will be upset when WWE announces the end of the guest hosts, and WWE.com immediately wishes Santino, Jillian, Ranjin Singh, The Great Khali and the Bella's well in their future endeavours.
ALSO, WWE Creative Department, stop writing roles for yourselves!

- The fan who removed his eye on last night's RAW in the segment with Jon Lovitz was WWE creative team member Joe Francosci. Dave Meltzer says that Joe did the same trick for Michael Hayes when he was interviewed for his job with WWE. (source:lordsofpain.net) That's not the strangest thing that's ever happened during a Michael Hayes-conducted interview. Google 'Nick Nemeth Michael Hayes Four Dead Hookers'.

The guy pulling his fake eye out was the only cool part of the segment. I wanted to see some real eye gouging action. Just to see if they'd go through with it on live TV.

When I was in high school, my buddy Steve had a glass eye and liked to remove it to gross people out, so the segment didn't do much for me.

I think it was supposed to be a spoof of Young Frankenstein. I know what it was supposed to be... it was just Kahli couldn't mumble on cue. Come on man, it's Khali.
