Kyle Busch, Joey Logano bring the pain at WWE Raw

By Jay Busbee

For those who whine that NASCAR is nothing but WWE on wheels, Monday night gave us a perfect collision of cultures, as Kyle Busch and Joey Logano stepped into the ring to guest-host WWE Raw. This is just too ridiculously awesome for words, so I'm going to step aside for a moment and let you check part 1:

Gotta say, Kyle plays the heel to perfection, turning the entire city of Buffalo against him with a couple well-timed lines ("You guys haven't been to the playoffs since Hulkamania"). And Joey manages not to soil himself while calling out The Big Show, which is saying something.

After the jump, some more video.

Next up, the boys try their best to look tough, plus they get to hang with a Little Person:

So, goofy, yes, but not nearly as bad as the horror that Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne will be next week. So the Gibbs boys got that goin' for 'em.

    The only thing I found funny is Busch actually tried to sound gangsta. That puny lil punk running his mouth at the beginning of the show. It's too bad NASCAR racers are so fragile it would have been nice to see him put his money where his mouth is.

    I know this is off topic, but the comment about Joe Gibbs Racing being the only team to put all their drivers in the Power Rankings is a bit off, don't you think? Maybe Stewart Hass Racing has a third car I don't know about now?

    Personally, that was painful to watch. Kyle and Joey should probably avoid acting in their future...

    I used to watch WWF/E back in the late 90's early 00's when it was huge, but quit a while ago. I tuned in to see the best driver on the circuit (Kyle...hey! it's my comment section, so I'm allowed to say he's the best) and found it to be a little painful. The best part is when they "showed up" to the arena and were doing burnouts and donuts in the (mysteriously empty) parking lot. needless to say the channel got changed back to Monday Night Football around 9:15pm.

    Oh, and yeah they sure can't act, which made them PERFECT for the WWE. I remember when they actually had more wrestling than theatrics, it's such a joke now.

    Yeah Nic; that sounded pretty funny coming out of his mouth to that great big wrestler-dude... wrestler standing there thinking, "I could pound this shrimp right through the floor with one blow of my hammy fist on top of his puny little head!"
    Or something like that.

    I like to point something out:
    Kyle Busch botched Kofi Kingston's name by calling him "Kofi Johnson."
    HMM...JIMMIE HAS A JAMACIAN COUSIN?
    Oh and the RKO car is the best. Wished Kyle would race it tho.

    Where is Stone Cold Steve Austin when you need him? Would've loved to see Kyle eat a Stone Cold Stunner.

    Kyle and Joey weren't that bad. I liked Kyle Busch going full wrestling villain going after Buffalo.

    Hell, part 1 video best I have seen on marbles in a long time, lighten up people, I thought it was funny as hell, it is all staged, everything in wrestling is scripted, but I bet wrestling is drawing more fans than Nascar

    say what you want about kyle busch,but here's a few facts that can't be argued.#1 none of you losers have to ever worry about being asked to host raw. #2 you'll never have a 1/10th the talent he has behind the wheel.#3you'll never make the kind of money, or live the kind of life he has and will. and #4he's still better than whineheardt jr!!!
