Hugh Jackman, aka 'Wolverine', set to host WWE RAW on Sept. 19th

 On Monday September 5th, the WWE announced that world renown actor Hugh Jackman will be hosting Monday Night RAW in two weeks on September 19th. Jackman is potentially the biggest star to ever host an episode of RAW. According to WWE.com, Jackman made the following comments about his upcoming appearance and the film he will be promoting:

"In two weeks, I'll be climbing into the ring on Raw to hang with the Superstars and the give the WWE Universe an exclusive first look at my new movie, Real Steel. Don't miss it,"

Jackman's movie "Real Steel" comes out on Friday October 7th. Hugh already has a connection with the WWE. Jackman and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are acquaintances as The Rock has recently helped Jackman to bulk up for an upcoming film.

For nearly the last 2 years the WWE has used celebrities to host WWE RAW. However, the frequency has dwindled over the last 10 months or so. But Jackman's appearance will surely gain national attention due to his fame as an actor, most notably as "Wolverine" in the X-Men movies. I wonder if Santino will be back in time to imitate "Wolverine"?
