Floyd's guest host appearance had to be one of the worse ones yet. Floyd was probably on tv for about 10 minutes and did absolutely nothing to justify his appearance. The much awaited confrontation between Floyd and Big Show lasted about 2 minutes and came up lame.
I for one am terribly disappointed in this let down. WWE and the mainstream media spent so much time hyping this appearance. I am inclined to think that Floyd was used very little because of his association with a shooting in Las Vegas late Sunday night.
Floyd only hyped his PPV match once… Now, I am sure of it… WWE had to have limited Floyd’s exposure due to the police troubles.. Because there’s no way Mayweather would have only talked about himself for 30 seconds.
Whatever the reason may be, FLoyd's appearance on WWE TV was a complete bust...
Complete Recap of Mayweather’s appearance
WWE hypes up Mayweather as boxing’s pound for pound best fighter in the world.. The first 30 minutes of the show and no Floyd. HHH said on the mic that Floyd wasn’t here yet.
WWE announcers keep referring to Mayweather as the best boxer in the world.
As the end of hour one approaches, Floyd finally shows up.
………………………………………………
The tag champs Big Show and Chris Jericho come out. The announcers say that the Big Show has been waiting all day to come out and confront Mayweather Jr. WWE shows a recap of Floyd’s match with Big Show at WrestleMania 24.
Big Show gets on the mic and says Floyd is doing the right thing that he’s hiding from him. He says that he will hurt him.. They have unfinished business. He says that he wont leave the ring until Floyd shows up.
On the big screen we see Floyd walking backs stage with his entourage. WWE cuts to a commercial break.
Back from the commercial break and Lilian introduces Floyd Mayweather Jr … She calls him “The quarter billion dollar man” and the “Greatest fighter in the world”…
Floyd comes out with about 10 guys at his side. Fireworks shoot off and Floyd heads into the ring. A mixed reaction from the crowd for Floyd.
Floyd walks around the ring and finally comes face to face with Big Show. Floyd says today is the “Money Day”… He says you know what I did to you at WrestleMania,, he will do it again tonight. But then he says he has a PPV fight on September 19th and it’s more important.
Jericho gets on the mic and says the he doesn’t think Floyd is a very good boxer and he calls him a little man. Jericho says Marquez will knock out Mayweather. Big Show gets the mic and says that he and Jericho will wipe him from the face of the planet after Marquez cleans his clock.
MVP comes out and sticks up for Floyd Mayweather Jr. MVP calls Big Show a big dummy and Jericho “Christina”.. MVP calls Jericho and Big Show the “Beauty and the Beast”..
Mayweather makes a match between MVP and Mark Henry vs. Big Show and Jericho. IF the champs lose then they have to put their titles on the line at the PPV.

Floyd sits outside the tag-team match that he made.
During the match, Floyd is outside screaming “Jericho you’re next” and “I’m the best in the world”…
The end of the match came when Floyd Mayweather went over and handed a foreign object to MVP who then punches Jericho out cold. MVP then gets the pin.
Floyd gets in the ring and celebrates with MVP and Mark Henry.
…………………………………………
The last we see of Floyd is when we go backstage before the main event match.
Vince and Floyd are training for the match. Floyd is holding up the hand pads while Vince is punching. Carlito comes in and says Floyd is a terrible guest host. (For once, I agree with Carlito)….
DX comes in and tells Vince it’s time to go. Vince says he’s busy and then HHH says that’s ok because now he has more time “To get busy with your daughter”.. Vince winds up and knocks out Carlito.
Floyd smiles and that’s the end of Floyd’s much hyped appearance.

pathetic episode. after that show, it make me stop watching wwe.
What did you expect from Floyd in this one? of course he isn't going to do anything fighting wise. a freak accident is always possible so no bodyslamming or punching between floyd and big show. the marquez fight was postponed to begin with, now i know we wouldn't want to postpone it again just because floyd wanted to pick a fight with big show. and the main reason he came late, my guess, was he was probably finishing his training for the day. you got to remember, floyd's a gym freak and when raw began it was only 6:00 PM in las vegas.
Got something to say?
