Chyna To Host Raw?, Vince Comments on New THQ/WWE Deal

Former WWE Diva Joanie "Chyna" Laurer has a poll up on her official website asking fans if she should host "a show she’s been apart of for 5 years." That show is of course, WWE Raw.

THQ and WWE have issued the following press release:

Dec 28, 2009 — THQ Inc. and World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. announced that they have entered into a new eight-year agreement granting THQ the exclusive worldwide rights to develop and publish video games based on WWE’s content effective January 1, 2010.
