Welcome back Hulk!
|
If he has really worked to redeem himself and is genuinely repentant and has learned from his behaviour, no reason why he shouldn't be allowed back in. Stupid comments and am sure many fans were let down by them, but hopefully he has learned and become a better person because of it all.
He is a living legend, so nice to enjoy him while he is still around. |
Reinstated into an imaginary hall of fame. :shifty:

Hulk spoke w/ the WWE wrestlers backstage in Pittsburgh, site of tonight's EXTREME RULES event:

The fact is the dude did say racist things at the low point in his life, kid in jail, getting divorced, ect. That is not excusing the behavior, but he was punished by WWE keeping him away for 3+ years. I think that, along with all the charity work he has done, the fact that he owned up to it, and seems truly remorseful, I don't think you punish him forever. |

Yeah Reggie Bush got some money, but just cause the NCAA says nobody won the Heisman in 2005, Reggie Bush won it. I remember, he has an amazing year. Hulk Hogan dropped a couple N Bombs about one person He hated. He hates one person who he choose to use a vile racist slur about to convey his hatred. Had he called the guy a dickhead, nobody would have cared. Alas, that isn't what he said. |
Hulk Hogan and Papa John!

Wonder how many times he used the word "brother" during the apology?:wtf:

Yesssssssssssssssss!

The GOAT is on his way back! Gonna add some actual star power to the shows and make them seem like a big deal. Let him take the title off Lesnar and hold it for a year without ever defending it. FUCK IT.
|
Not surprised considering its been rumored ever since he got kicked out that Vince wanted him reinstated as soon as possible and didn't really want to do it in the first place.
The real test is going to be when he inevitably shows up on tv or at an event and how big the backlash it generates. |
This is something that was inevitable and isn't something I've been particularly interested in, but now that it's been announced I just think "Gross" and it feels like more of a reason to just not give a shit about this promotion.

Even one of the main lessons from his speech feels a bit off going by PWI's part. Like its great that he apologized and realized his error but also sort of blamed the camera for being outed as a racist instead of having those views to begin with. |
It reminds me of the David Cross joke "First of all, I forgot them microphones was on..."
It's just more PR hippy-dippy bullshit. "He's learnt his lesson. He won't ever say those things publicly again. Now we can all be a happy family...or else." Like, what is a black roster member supposed to say? If they're cool with it -- good for them, I guess. If they're not, are they really going to go up to Vince and Triple H and say "I don't like this"? It's got that "hands-tied, play ball" feeling to it. And let's not pretend that there was an actual suspension or that this is part of some ongoing process of healing. They distanced themselves and now they want him back because they have no real stars. It's got that Saudi propaganda feeling to it, and just like that, I do hope it blows back in their face at some point, just because I am now actively root against this company. |
I hope they make Hogan the trouble-shooting GM of Raw.
|
Would prefer Hogan to Angle 100% tbh
|
If any heel gives him shit, Hogan drops the leg brother!
|
KO getting legdropped brotherjack

Hogan ain't getting booed when he returns. If anything, the company will probably wait to run a "Hogan friendly city" like Detroit or Toronto for his return. Hogan could lead a second Holocaust and get cheered in Toronto.

i remember cheering Hogan at WM18. Good times.

The fact that this was taped makes this all PR bullshit.
|
Mark Henry has said that the black talent in WWE are apparently 50/50 on Hogan coming back.

but the good news is Noid may have found himself an ideal suitor ;) (LMFAO just kidding Noidsy, fight the power!)

Big E. Langston does sound better than Big E. Big E sounds like a euphemism.
|
I mean... neither name sounds like a main eventer, but he's from the time when they just came up with awful names. But "Big E." is not akin to a fucking slave name lmfao.
