Boxing match only prelude
Stefan Raab celebrates “muscle comeback” on RTL
After almost a decade away from the screen, German entertainer Stefan Raab celebrated his television comeback. The former "TV total" presenter, who is still adored by many fans, boxed in an exhibition match against Regina Halmich (47) in Düsseldorf. And left the fans cheering at the end despite his defeat: "Yes, I'm doing shows again."
It should have been a boxing match. And became the comeback of the decade: "Stefan is here and is cleaning up the place. Everyone who knows him is already looking forward to it," rapped Stefan Raab at the official press conference for his comeback.
In the end, the 57-year-old had a real respectable success - and an announcement that made tens of thousands of fans cheer: "I'm doing shows again." And in the old dream team with Elton, whom he offered a job while still in the ring - as an intern ...
According to Raab, the show is due to start in just one week - as a foretaste, he showed himself to his fans in the shower after the fight.
"You're not going to win the million here"
He then revealed his reasons for the comeback: "A whole generation has now grown up without good entertainment." He could no longer stand idly by. RTL has also offered him "to be number 2 after the Bachelor". The show is due to start on Wednesday at 8.10 pm, not on linear TV, but on RTL+ with a "quiz competition show". Opponent: Raab himself. Prize money: one million euros. Applications are now open. He will also be organizing events again - fans will remember the big high dive and others. According to the entertainer, he and RTL have committed themselves to each other for five years: Then Raab, who celebrates his birthday in October, will be 63 ...
RTL had previously broadcast the boxing event live: the now 57-year-old had already met the former world boxing champion in the ring in 2001 and 2007, losing both times. In 2001, Halmich even broke his nose. However, the question of who would win the third - and supposedly last - fight was only a minor matter. First of all, most viewers and web users were interested in what Raab looks like today.
In 2015, he retired from the screen and from then on worked behind the scenes. And as expected, the media professional kept the fans waiting - and shocked them with an empty hall at the beginning. The boxing ring then flew in - and Raab finally relieved the audience.
"Couple on the mouth", sang Raab, just like in the good old days, it was a great performance with lots of show, dancers and lots of pyrotechnics!
"I'm sorry for the way you look"
Raab put up a good fight in the rounds - but Halmich kept going after Raab. She was in top form, Raab could only try to keep her at a distance - in vain!
Unsurprisingly, Halmich won the fight in the end - but Raab stood his ground until the end. "I'm sorry how you look," Raab said at the end, sounding as if he had never been away. At least he had left the professional boxer with a black eye.
