The UK Sun is reporting that boxing star Ricky Hatton will be the guest host for WWE Raw on November 9 in Sheffield, England. According to the website, Vince McMahon was looking for an English star with a big enough profile in the United States to host the company’s flagship offering. Manchester-born Hatton fits the bill perfectly, with his fights against Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao generating huge pay-per-view numbers in the States in recent years. Other names in contention were Ricky Gervais and Lennox Lewis. The reasoning behind why Vince went with Ricky Hatton is that he feels Hatton is a name who will increase ticket sales for WWE’s house show tours around Europe as well as increasing the ratings in the UK and also in the USA.
