I noticed on Youtube there was a LOT of hate towards The Muppets for being on WWE Raw? I don't get why.

I for one, LOVE the Muppets. Anyone that hates them is an idiot. I was very happy when I saw Kermit the Frog and his friends on Raw. So, what's the deal?

I liked THIS part at the beginning.

I have no problem with the Muppets, but that doesn't mean they belong on Raw. There are lots of things/people I like that I don't want to see on Raw.

I have no care for the muppets, I don't hate or like them. They just shouldn't come on RAW for the sole purpose of advertising their movie, taking up 4-5 unfunny segments to fans who want to see wrestling, not muppets in the back interacting with superstars. It's really childish, unfunny and unrealistic. Why would heel Swagger start talking to a man holding a puppet? It just makes zero sense, let them advertise their movie else where.

Opened (how mad are Hoss and Seabs)?

Old threads are allowed to be bumped if it's value discussion like this. There is no time limit to discuss the muppets being mad at WWE fans. The whole guest hosts/WWE debate is a good one. Is it good exposure for the WWE or is it an insult to WWE fans?

I personally think it's good, because people love characters like The Muppets (my personal favorite is Kermit the Frog), so to me, WWE + Muppets = Heaven.

I actually found them funny... but it still produced so many filler segments that did nothing but give the kids a cheap laugh, which, really, isn't that the thing we hate more than anything about Raw nowadays?

Still, WWE fans know when people are there because they love wrestling, and when they are there to get millions of people seeing the plug for their new movie.
