We made a point to ask some of the Smackdown stars if they felt left out of the whole “Celebrity Host” deal. “It would be cool, you know, to have a celebrity host backstage,” admitted Dolph Ziggler. “You know, that I could pal around with. Or they could be really happy to see me.”

And what about Ziggler’s “girlfriend,” WWE Diva Maria? “I was very very very disappointed that I didn’t get to meet Jeremy Piven,” she said. “I was very upset about that. Entourage is one of my favorite shows.”

Who would Ziggler and Maria like to see host Smackdown? “Heidi Montag,’ Ziggler smiled. “I’m a big fan of her…music” Being in LA for Summerslam, it was possible that the two of them might actually bump into each other. “I was hoping she’d show up, or even be here tonight” Ziggler said, commenting on the celebrities that were turning up for the Summerslam party. We told him he might get lucky. “Well, she might get lucky,’ Ziggler stated.

Channing Tatum was Maria‘s pick. “Oh my god,” she swooned. “I know he’s a married man and I have a man, but that man is hot. He’s a very sexy man.” The two of us then joked about Tatum having a GI Joe theme with previous host Sergeant Slaughter. “Me and my girls we actually bought GQ so that we could have his…um, spread,” laughed Maria.
