Rob Zombie On WWE Monday Night Raw Recap

NEW YORK (Top40 Charts/ RoadRunner Records) - Rob Zombie was the special guest host on WWE Monday Night Raw this past Monday, June 28th and thanks to blabbermouth.net, we've got the photos (below) to prove it in case you missed it.

Broadcast from the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia, PA, newsroom.mtv.com reminds us that, "Zombie has a bit of history with professional wrestling, as he is pals with former champion Edge and his song "Never Gonna Stop (The Red Red Kroovy)" acted as Edge's entrance music a few years back."

As for what you may have missed if you weren't tuned in to the USA Network on Monday night, MTV recounts that, "The rocker announced to the crowd that he was a fan of 'the sick and twisted things that take place in this ring,' and then let everybody know the participants in the eight-man ladder match at the show (including the aforementioned Edge, Randy Orton, Evan Bourne, former "The Real World" star the Miz, Ted DiBiase, R-Truth, Chris Jericho and John Morrison).

"Zombie, who was decked out in a Lou reed T-shirt (probably the first and only time that will be happening on WWE programming), did a fine job psyching up the crowd, and his natural charisma came across even as he was just reading names. Considering a big part of his persona comes from a sort of demented ringmaster concept, he was a natural in the ring. And the "Money in the Bank" match was an appropriate one for Zombie to announce, as not only will it feature a healthy amount of violence (something the director of "House of 1,000 Corpses" and "The Devil's Rejects" is familiar with) but also a bunch of participants with connections to the music world (Jericho is the frontman of metal band Fozzy, R-Truth uses a hip-hop gimmick and John Morrison's character is a take-off on late Doors frontman Jim Morrison)."
