Bob Barker confirms "WWE Raw" guest host stint for Sept. 7

Former "The Price is Right" host Bob Barker confirmed his upcoming guest host stint on "WWE Raw," reported a couple of weeks ago by Variety. Barker announced in a phone interview with radio station WQXA/105.7 (The X) of York, Pa. that he will host the September 7 edition of Raw from metro Chicago.

If the telephone interview is any indication, Barker won't have any problem with the out there nature of World Wrestling Entertainment programming. Of course, he also has a project to promote with his book "Priceless Memories" released several months ago. (Credit to Darth Chaos at rec.sport.pro-wrestling for the Barker news.)

Additionally, NWA legend Dusty Rhodes was announced by WWE.com several days ago as the guest host of the August 31 "Raw" edition from Detroit, Michigan. Rumors that basketball star LeBron James or failed general manager/commentator Mike Adamle would host the next edition proved unfounded. One or both men could still host in future weeks.
