I actually think this "storyline" is why TNA sucks so much. Here you have Sting apparently losing his mind all so he can wrestle Hogan again. Or at the very least, bring back the real Hulk Hogan. Either way, I think it's somewhat original(and I use that term loosely) that Sting tried a variation of a gimmick. But to then waste it on a storyline with Hogan is ridicoulous and laughable at the same time. You have a locker room full of talented guys that could help Sting carry a decent match, but yeah, let's give the Ol' Hulkster another try. I'm sure he'll give the Stinger that 5 star classic that has been missing from TNA for 5-6 years. Never mind the catchphrase of the company is "wrestling matters". Gee, do we wanna see Hogan limping in the ring tonight, or do we wanna see AJ Styles give us a dream match with Sting? Well, it seems like it's a no brainer, give the old timers a retrospective of 1997. Hmmm, do I sense the mistakes of WCW coming to bite TNA in the backside? Not pushing the talent while using Sting to set up an already played out match is exactly why WCW is no longer around. But, "wrestling matters", so let's do the opposite.
Sting using his insanity to create a different level to his gimmick is one thing, but to involve Hogan instead of any number of younger talent is a waste of TV time and effort....
