I was just wondering if anyone knew where Hulk Hogan is now adays, and what hes doing? Someone told me he was wrestling in Japan last year, and that there was some kind of deal with Jeff Jarrett hitting him with a guitar and saying something like "Heard you wanted to come to TNA, well TNA just came to you", but that he has yet to be on NWATNA. Anyone know anything about this?

I also heard he has his own federation now, XWF or something like that, but I can't find anything on it online.

He's currently working as Vince Russo's plumber.

Hogan actually is appearing on,or will be appearing on Hollywood Squares.I heard it was all this week that it aired,but I've missed the episodes :( You can still catch one later on tonight - depending on where you live and what time and channel it comes on.

He's mainly working to help promote his daughter's (Brooke Bollea) singing career. She seems to have a bit of potential,and has appeared on concerts with Hilary Duff,and others,and has sang the National Anthem at NASCAR and other events.

Also,about your TNA question,he had mentioned that he would appear with the company,and they filmed that segment that was supposed to lead into an angle,but nothing came of it.

That happened for several reasons,including his injury,and then what everyone believed would be a potential appearance at WMXX. TNA jumped the gun,and instead of getting it in writing before doing anything,jumped at the chance to even have mention of Hogan on the show.

As far as the XWF goes... I believe it went out when Hogan joined the WWE... I havent heard about the XWF in a while... I heard somthing about it a few months ago, but I dont remember...

WWE had more to do with XWF closing than anything else (that and XWF's lack of common knowledge). When WWE heard about XWF opening,they ran in and scooped up their bigger stars (Curt Hennig,Hulk Hogan,etc..) and took away any chance of them making it.

XWF ran one taping from Universal Studios,with Hogan,Hennig,Public Enemy,LOD,Marc Mero,The Nasty Boys,Greg Valentine,Marty Jannetty,Virgil,and a bunch of others. After that they went on a string of barely promoted,barely attended "house shows",until they basically fell apart.

Jimmy Hart took a few of the XWF crew (Nastys,Hail,Kid Kash,others) to Puerto Rico,where they did an invasion angle with WWC (similar to nWo's invasion on WCW). This never went anywhere,and they faded off into the distance.

Recently,something was thrown around about possibly bringing XWF back,but I don't know if that will happen or not.

Someone rep this man!

I tried repping you for that quote, but it told me I should rep other people before I rep you again.

:(

Well said, I might add.
