-- WWE has reportedly tossed around the idea of trying to secure Conan O'Brien as guest host of a future edition of Monday Night Raw. However, there is no word on whether he would even consider the role.

The former host of The Tonight Show is contractually unable to begin a new series until September, so he should have plenty of free time until then.

I am a huge Conan fan and I would actually love to see this. Here is the problem. Raw is on USA Network, which is owned by NBC. Conan spent the last 2 weeks of his show making fun on NBC and NBC's President and McMahon friend, Dick Ebersol. Do you all see the conflict here?

;O GET COCO TO HOST! I see the conflict, but I hope this happens because I think this would boost Raw's ratings a lot. Conan is probably the most talked about guy right now and Raw having him as a guest host would be amazing. Doesn't hurt that he's very funny too.

Since WWE is scripted, NBC can control what he says anyways, so he can't do any more damage and all he can do is pull in ratings. I think they should do it. It's not like WWE is giving him some full-time job anyways, so I don't think NBC really cares.

Show, Cena, Triple H and other WWE stars were on Late Night w/Conan a bunch of times, so he is familar with some of the guys and I think it would be hilarious.

Hell yeah! This better happen, Conans work is great. Even though I preferred his Late Night work to his Tonight work, I always found him entertaining. I don't think NBC will care too much. Personally, I'd rather see him guest host than Austin but I'm sure that I'm the minority in that opinion.

I disagree with that last part, but CoCo would be one of the best guest host they have had. Conan is genuinly funny in everthing he does. NBC made a huge mistake by letting him go and I would love to see him on TV again soon.
