Hogan puts over Sting cleanly initially at Starrcade, and returns to win the belt and put over Goldberg cleanly in 98..Then retires permenantly...returns for one or two payoff dream matches and an nWo angle in WWE and hangs up his boots forever. Discuss.
I hate Hogan more than anything, but had that been the chain of events, and he didn't hang around and kill places, wrestlers and other things dead, what would be the fan perception of him? If he had been smart enough to put over talent clean and hang up his boots after the nWo was stale and WCW didn't need him anymore, and then done the WWE return in 02 and then retired FOR GOOD...maybe me and others would view him as more of a legend and less of a destructive, insane, asshole.
Of course, maybe if he got out of the way in 97-98 and let those 2 stars get over big, WCW may not have died so quickly.
