No where near as famous as Hogan is or even was at the time.

Man, I hope Brooke Hogan just stays at home for this. Unless, they decide to get Chyna and Nicole Bass back and book a triple threat "Man Hands" match.

With the Royal Rumble being really really boring, I was going to skip Wrestlemania altogether. Now I'm thinking I might download it the next day and skip through most of the matches and just watch the segments if there's going to be segments with the likes of Hogan as Warrior.

Norman is older than I am and I'm 31. I'm sure he was a 10 year old smark during the 80's.

What numbers! People throw Austin's numbers when Hogan was in the infancy of ppv, you didn't have Wal Mart and stores selling shit, you pretty much had to go to an event or the magazine to buy stuff, plus ppv's, tickets and merch were a lot cheaper back then, especially the tickets.

Norman is 35, and Norman has a firm belief that if you love Randy Savage like he does you must hate Hulk Hogan. wrestlemania 5 is where it all began, then mania 7 happened , then 8 when Hogan was in a worthless match and just HADDD to go on last. then 9, then it was nice for a few years til he was back .

Hogan was my hero growing up. I would fight to the ends of the earth beside him if he beckoned my call.

Not a god damn thing wrong with standing up for your hero

I understand that some people don't like the Hulkster, but by bringing Hogan back for Wrestlemania, this instantly brings in additional views and interest from my demographic (grew up with 80's - early 90's WWF, hasn't watched WWE seriously since '03, hasn't casually followed for the last 5 or so years, only still on TPWW for casual and hockey).

Now I'm hearing news about Ultimate Warrior and the Hall of Fame?

Consider me sold. "Golden era WWF" nostalgia = $$$ for Vince's wallet.

And if they really want to keep you as a consistent revenue stream, they will make you interested in their current crop of wrestler. I have a feeling that this won't happen though.

I tested that theory too Arashi, people that have sworn off wrestling are really excited for those names.

Funny thing is they are not going to take up too much precious time, but if they did it would be for the better. It's fucking Wrestlemania!!! A bigger than life spectacle. Sure, you don't have to agree with the whole damn card, but at least try and enjoy what they have available.

Stone Cold and The Rock would be awesome to have in a segment too.

With it being Wrestlemania 30, if there was ever a justifiable excuse to bury the current roster (ok, that's a little extreme, lol) in favor of a nostalgic and historic celebration, this is it.

I'm not gonna get back into following the current product, but will enjoy the opportunity to see my childhood heroes one more time on the biggest stage.

Savage had runs with the belt and didn't draw well. Pick up any Wrestling Observer magazine from that era. They are online. That's why the belt went back to Hogan.

I know that is how he's perceived by some, but by supporting Hogan, it doesn't mean we want the current roster buried. I hate that term, buried.

I want to see Bryan and Cesaro, the Shield and all the others to succeed, most of them will. They have a bright future, a different era to lead. I'm a little bored of the formula going right now, but I think with a little help from the past for one night, another memorable performance will help solidify why wrestling is great.

it only went back to Hogan once in the WWF when Savage was champ from WM 4 to WM 5. Savage's other reign was when he won then lost to Ric Flair. I am confused about the one day WCW title reigns (once each in 1998 and 1999) where he dropped the belt to Hogan then.

well never mind... forgot after Savage dropped the WCW title to Hogan in 98, Goldberg won it a few months later, and in 99, Hogan turned face and went back to red and yellow after winning from Savage.

the WCW ones irritate me more than the WWF ones owen. using savage as a transition champ just to get back to Hogan makes Savage look like a stooge.

Gertner ,putting it back on Hogan was the right thing at Mania % because anytime you can close out your biggest show with the top babyface winning the title that's the way you go. But maybe Savage didn't draw well because they stuck Hogan with him for the whole year in lame ass tag matches

I don't think tagging with the biggest in the industry at the time and arguably ever was bad for Savage's popularity. If anything, it instantly made him apart of the main event scene without having to main event.

I was born in 1986. Hogan was well before my time, and by the time I was old enough realize what I was watching, it was Bret Hart, HBK, Diesel and Taker who were the main guys during my adolescent rasslin years.

But I completely understand Hogan's importance to the business. He's the fucking man, period. Other than Austin and the Rock, nobody can just walk into an arena and get the reaction Hogan can get. Even now, 30 years after he began his run, he's still a commodity that is almost guaranteed to get a massive reaction and have the crowd in the palm of his hand.

How having him host the 30th edition of the event he helped put on the map is bad thing is beyond me. It's clear that, regardless of his involvement, it's best for business and having him there after being gone for as long as he has is a great thing.

I would fucking love it if WWE was capable of building new stars and some of those stars were anywhere near Hogan's level.

But they aren't.

So... milk the biggest star you've ever created for as long as you can.

The reality is gertner that the first guy you had a crush on probably isn't as attractive to you as he once was so why stillblindly fawn over him . Unless you never made much progress in that department then I can see why you're still hung up on your touchy uncle

If Hulk Hogan was my uncle, he could touch me.

This thread is not exactly your crowning achievement, Norman. You should probably just let it die and hope it becomes forgotten forever.

-edit- Sorry. I was thinking of the Hogan thread you started. But this one too now.
