WWE Talent Appearing on Tons of Other Shows

Over the past month or so I have begun to notice that WWE wrestlers have been on TV everywhere.  This move I get.  The WWE is doing a good job of getting their name out there by having wrestlers all over the place.

HHH appeared on Jimmy Fallon awhile back to promote a WWE pay per view.  His appearance was pretty funny, as would be expected, but what I find interesting is how it took them this long to start having wrestlers advertise their PPVs on talk shows.

It has happened a few times but never on a regular basis, and I for one think it should happen more regularly.

This whole week we have been seeing WWE star appear on "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader."  This has been interesting because we got to see how smart some of them really are. 

So far The Miz has taken in the most money for charity at $20,000, where John Morisson, MVP and Michelle McCool all flunked out, but still received $2,500 for their charities.  Wasn't Michelle McCool a teacher with a masters degree?  Hmmm.

Dolph Ziggler is making the game show rounds as well with an appearance as the banker on Deal or no Deal.  His heel persona should make for some interesting banter between him and Howie.

I also saw that someone is scheduled to appear on Regis some time soon, but I'm not sure who.

Overall I feel that this is a smart move by WWE because it will get their name out there to people who may not have ever watched or have stopped watching wrestling.
