Let's just say this is true.

If they really plan on Hogan wrestling, they must have done enough research to figure that his name will result in more buys. If that's the case, they are in terrible shape for the future if they have to reach this deep into the past to save the present.

Eventually the "old school" well will run dry, and they won't have anyone on todays roster that should have been given a main event shot to rely on for a draw. I'm sure Triple H will be more than happy to save the day and strap on the boots for a while though.

This is why it annoys me every Wrestlemania when so many names from the past come back. Undertaker is cool, and maybe one other name per year, but when 2/3 of the card revolves around past stars, it pretty much shows you how much faith WWE has in it's current roster.

On top of that, this is probably the only time "the world" is watching. Anyone paying any attention at all because of guys like Hogan, Rock, Lesnar etc, aren't gonna stick around the next week once that person is gone. This is the chance to really showcase the talent they have today... and seriously WWE has more than enough talent today to put on a great show.

And as a petty thing on my behalf, these guys have all had their Wrestlemania moments. How long does a guy like Wade Barrett need to bust his ass just to be given anything on WM that isn't a generic clusterfuck tag match? Whilst guys like Lesnar get to waltz in whenever they want and do as they please?

This is a ridiculous statement. If their research shows that Hogan will mean more buys, that doesn't mean those additional buys are needed to save the present. It just means more money.

This is also a ridiculous statement. Just because you don't want the main event to solely consist of guys who have been around a decade or more doesn't mean you want to see someone as new as Bray Wyatt in the main event.

You could argue he helps them not lose money and thus saving the present. But first, he needs to fly around the Earth really really fast opposite of its rotation.
