Not during an ad break, actually during the show with comments from the announce team. I don't have a problem with the first film, I enjoyed it and I think the second looks pretty good too. But why was it trailered? It's nothing to do with the USA Network, or WWE Films. Is there a WWE Employee in it? Is there some sort of tie-in coming up that I haven't read about?

Because the movie studio paid time for it to air during Raw which has most of the target demographic for Ted 2 in front of the screen last night.

WWE are slacking.
They should have had Hornswaggle running around in a bear suit sexually harrasing the divas.

Even more annoying, there were 3-4 plays of the same trailer during ad breaks on USA.

I didn't know you could actually do that as part of a show. Consider me informed. Same reason why we got a Sonic commercial with New Day, Big Show, and Mega Powers last week. If the product placement happens during the show, WWE gets the dollars instead of USA. Which is a nice loophole since USA keeps all of the ad revenue due to their contract with WWE. Pretty soon we will have wrestlers sponsored by different things ala NASCAR.

Vince thinks it's a heel Teddy Ruxpin.

Pretty soon we will have wrestlers sponsored by different things ala NASCAR. I see that but at least the Sonic one incorporated some of the talent into it. This seemed more random as it was just the trailer and a few comments from Cole and JBL. I'm sure it's not the first time but off the top of my head I can't recall them just showing a trailer like that.

Yeah, it's just a longer version of the "Raw/SmackDown was brought to you by (insert sponsor)..".

I'm guessing it's a Universal movie and the studio/network wanted a plug on WWE Raw. I bet the top brass at Universal just see Raw as a show with a lot of male 18-34 viewers and thus they had them run their Ted 2 ad on the show.
