The Monday Night Wars - Round 2?
From PWInsider:

The hulk Hogan announcement tonight will be that TNA will be airing a three hour special on 1/4/10 from the Impact Zone, so for at least one night, the Monday Night Wars return.

Eric Bischoff is in Las Vegas as well and is sitting cage side with Hulk Hogan and Dixie Carter. I am told the usual Hulk Hogan entourage (Jimmy Hart, Brutus Beefcake, etc) are with Hogan, but may not be appearing on camera.
=====

I'm guessing that this is their test episode and if, at the very least, they don't drop in ratings, they'll move to Mondays.


UPDATE: (Also from PWInsider)
During the Ultimate Fighter Finale, Joe Rogan interviewed Hulk Hogan, who sounded like he was fighting off a sore throat. Hogan said he was a UFC fan and that the fighters tonight were "going to war."

Rogan pointed out Hulk Hogan had signed with TNA as Dixie Carter's new partner. Hogan put over SpikeTV and said they had "just gotten the word" that TNA will be going "head to head" with WWE on Monday Nights on 1/4. Hogan said he was there to "take over" and you'd "never know when the old man with the yellow boots" will get back into the ring.

Dixie Carter was shown watching during the announcement, but did not speak.

TNA sources have confirmed the timeslot for the special will be 8 PM Eastern. An official press release is forthcoming.

It'll be interesting. I'm really curious to see what Vince will pull out to counter it... Whether or not people will stick with TNA is one thing, but honestly, you know people will tune in to see Hogan.

Man, it's going to be so hard for them because WWE has such a huge corporate infrastructure and marketing machine.

I hope that TNA can really focus their product into something fantastic. They have the basic ideas they need down, but they just need that extra "something" to make it work. Hopefully the product will relay and beat whatever money WWE is throwing at their tired old schtick (Raw).

Well, assuming Rock's still on for the 1/4 RAW, if that is the case, I don't see many people switching over to TNA, tbh.

Yeah, obviously he needs to bury AJ.

Actually, I could EASILY see Hogan as the Legends champion. If he's going to win a title, that would be my first pick. (Though it's like choosing between puke (Legends), shit (X), and puke-covered shit (World).)

Nash turns on EY, jacknifes him, Nash wins the belt, Hogan shows up, finger poke of Doom, and then the NWO reforms. Jarrett shows up to stop them, only to actually be part of them.... only to be pulling a trick on them because he's against them.... only to actually be on their side at the end of the show.

Then Hornswoggle shows up at dumps the cruiserweight title in the garbage, and wins the X division title that night.

BOOK IT!

lol maybe Angle and Jarrett are going to join the TnWo and it'll be revealed the whole Jarrett/Karen thing was a work.

Now there's an idea Bischoff would get behind.

Or maybe we'll see TNA fall flat on its face.

If Vince actually wanted to put an effort into quashing TNA he could easily put it together and own the night.

The thing is, if he did this, it'd show he does see TNA as a threat, and he'd be hard-pressed to admit that.

Are they needed? Not really. Yeah, it'd help, but realistically, TNA has been on Spike, what, 3 years at least, and are still barely breaking the 1 barrier. No where near WWE's ratings level. They barely beat SuperStars this week.

Unless they start pulling 2s and 3s out of their asses and WWE loses viewership, nothing will change.

how big of a mess could he possibly get them into, after all he's not running the thing,actually i have no idea what his role is, but even just by being part of the company will bring in the ratings, think about this people would tune in just to watch his life they may want to watch just for hogan, you know the people they are not wrestling fans just hogan fans.

THIS. Also, this definitely feels like a trial run. I hope TNA's successful, for the sake of wrestling fans everywhere. MNW gave us quality TV, gave both feds killer ratings, and gave wrestling fans memories for years to come.

I want TNA to do well with this. TNA has been quite enjoyable lately, and if it just leads tot he WWE putting more effort in -- more power to them.

I have a feeling that the WWE's "retort" to this will be "all three brands will appear." And The Rock will guest host. But I expect Vince to put a little extra effort in in the following weeks. Perhaps some sort of cool program for the Rumble. Something that gets people excited. A fresh challenger for John Cena who doesn't seem so "random."

I think many will want TNA to do well, which is why this one off thing may be a good idea, if the show is good enough. It'll definitely keep the writers of raw thinking. And anything to keep those dickheads thinking is a good idea imo.

I'm definitely pulling for TNA on this one, but in all fairness I don't really get too excited about anything that has the words HULK HOGAN in it.

Honestly, if I were Dixie Carter I wouldn't want to go into direct competition with Vince. Sure there's the possibility that I'd steal fans from him during the battle but, Vince could easily buy out TNA's roster if it so desired. If the style of wrestling was preferred he'd just buy out ROH and beat TNA at their own game. He has all the options...

I'll watch the first hour, but then I'm watching Raw when it starts, just like the old Monday Night War.

I very much hope they do the monday night war thing over here to, sadly though i think they'll just show tna on fridays/saturdays like normal.(i guess cause of the timezone differences)

So what? Even if both of the shows aren't on at the same time for you, if both shows really stepped their games up, you could watch both products without having to make a decision. Sounds pretty good to me.

And even if TNA gets crushed, it'll get crushed because WWE has a better product and/or stepped up their game.

This is a win-win scenario for fans, I reckon

I'm going to predict a rating somewhere in the high 1.0's, maybe 1.7 and they would round that up to 2.0. However if Impact can score higher than 2.0 I think they would move Impact to Monday's in March.

I hope it works, but in order for it to work, TNA needs to be a show that I feel compelled to watch, and right now, that is not happening.

They should revamp Impact until after Wrestlemania, and see where they stand then, try out Monday night shows.

Trust me, TNA is worth watching atm, even though its hard to keep track of who is heel or face if you miss just one show.

I'm hating TNA's heavy deal on the worked shoot. I love a good worked shoot, but they bring a shoot into every fucking promo it seems.

Yeah, I chalk it up to Russo...

I'm starting to watch Impact but eh, it's just not "there" to me. They're missing something, and Hogan being there is NOT it.

you know what,

hogan may actually be the right element. Despite what people think of hogan he does know how to make an impact in the world of wrestling. I think its a good thing his personal life went down the drain so now he can focus on work instead of worrying about his ex-wifes 50 year old cunt juices sliding down a 19 year old cock.
