This is purely speculation. There are no rumors or dirt sheet reports on this as of yet. As I'm watching SmackDown I just noticed the preview for his new movie, The Dictator and I could not help but picture Cohen in character hosting an upcoming RAW. Cohen is known for extreme marketing, staying in character to hype up his movies so a RAW appearance wouldn't be all too surprising. I know that most of the time, the guest host gimmick has proven to be painful television and awkward moments most of us would rather forget, but I actually wouldn't mind seeing this happen.

The point of this thread is basically to see what the consensus thinks of Cohan as "Admiral General Aladeen" possibly hosting RAW.

Vince is too conservative to put somebody like Sacha Baron Cohen on live tv.

Not happening, plus Vince hates Jews anyways

So Mcmahon hates Goldberg?

 

[PartFive]

Hell yes!

 

[FlemmingLemming]

Better idea. Have Mark Ruffalo host as the Incredible Hulk, and put him in a cage with Lesnar.

 

[CHIcagoMade]

Hell yes!

:lmao THAT sig is fucking hilarious why was he so MAD?

 

[TexasTornado]

I hope so, Cohen is one of the few comedic actors out there i actually still find funny. I think he would be hilarious on Raw.

If he does guest host it should be as his Bruno character.

Everybody hates him. And it has nothing to do with whether or not he was circumcised. WAY TOO STIFF, unprofessional, full of himself.


Admiral General Aladeen would be hilarious as "The Dictator" of RAW! I would love to see some crazy unscripted shit! Been a fan of Baron Cohen since Da Ali G days.

If its beneficial for Vince and the movie, of course he would do it. But its such a broad question. Id say its 50/50. I mean, he didnt get any of the American Reunion guys to promote on Raw and that movie is right our the viewerships alley.

 

[superfudge]

I'd hope so. It's live TV so Cohen would probably do something chaotic.

 

[-Extra-]

I hope not. Then again I hope to never see another celebrity guest host again.

Sacha Baron Cohen is totally not PG, and he can't be trusted to stick to a script so I doubt it would ever happen. I'd like to see it though, he's hilarious.

 

[Jockey89]

It wouldn't be a bad shout - and this sounds like an out an out lie but Cohen is a MASSIVE wrestling fan,I remember hearing that Cohen and Cena are actually quite good friends. I think it's on his IMDB 'trivia' bit about his love for it, so it's not impossible as long as they can keep him PG.

 

[fraze316]

Cohen and the Iron Sheik could be very amusing

 

[Chaotic_Forces]

As himself? FUCK NO
As Ali G? FUCK NO
As Bruno? YEAH!

Joking aside:
He might get away with the Bruno character. That's it.

I would like to point out that when he was on Conan (as himself, not a character), he behaved himself and was just fine. He's a bit of a messer (prankster/pushes the censors a bit) but he can be fine.
