Metro World News has a new article online featuring quotes from Justin Long who star in the movie Going The Distance. In it, he's asked about guest hosting the 8/16 edition of WWE Raw with co-stars Jason Sudeikis and Charlie Day. He was very honest in his response, saying, "In no way am I being self-deprecating when I say that was a disaster. It was just not the audience to be promoting a movie like that to. We were so out of place. It was just awkward. They're all fired up to see guys pummeling each other, not to see three nerdy comedy guys do some bits. They played the trailer for this crowd and it just silenced them — and not in a good way."
When asked what to do in that situation, Long said, "You just commit to it as best you can. We were in Los Angeles at the Staples Center, and the only time we really had the audience on our side was when we were praising the Lakers. And before that I think the majority of them were contemplating throwing things at us. There were a few homophobic remarks. I don't want to generalize it, I know some wrestling fans. But it's just not the audience."
