History
The show was originally hosted by Todd Grisham and Ivory. The setting was outdoors and usually around New York City. When WWE programming moved to the USA Network during September 2005, The WWE Experience was cancelled in America to later be replaced with WWE A.M. Raw, but the show continued to be produced for the overseas audience. The filming was moved to the WWE studios in Stamford, Connecticut under the excuse that Grisham hated to film in the rain. Ivory was released from WWE a few weeks before the cancellation of the show in the United States. In July 2006, Todd Grisham was replaced as host by Josh Mathews. On air, Matthews reportedly said, "No reason, Todd's gone, here, deal with it". After Josh Mathews became a commentator on ECW, he was replaced by Jack Korpela. In November 2011, Korpela left the WWE and was replaced by Matt Striker. In late 2012, Striker welcomed Renee Young as co-host.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“One classic American landscape haunts all of American literature. It is a picture of Eden, perceived at the instant of history when corruption has just begun to set in. The serpent has shown his scaly head in the undergrowth. The apple gleams on the tree. The old drama of the Fall is ready to start all over again.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
“I assure you that in our next class we will concern ourselves solely with the history of Egypt, and not with the more lurid and non-curricular subject of living mummies.”
—Griffin Jay, and Reginald LeBorg. Prof. Norman (Frank Reicher)
“The history of the world is the record of the weakness, frailty and death of public opinion.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
