Notice that TNA actually hired Russo/Rhodes? You think there's a place for anyone who even REMOTELY knows shit about wrestling? Hell, even Heyman was taken off WWE creative... |

But I'll agree that's he's sort of pushing it. Still, when he comes back, it's not after he "retired," so there none of that kayfabe trickery that Hogan excels at. |

IT was a dick move and it was probably because he didn't want to lay down.
How many people has he put over of late? Fuck that, how many people has he put over, period? |

Hulk Hogan is a perfect example of how sometimes ignorance is bliss when it comes to being a wrestling fan. As a kid, Hogan was the closest thing to a living, breathing superhero. I loved everything about him.
And his turn was incredible. Whoever dismissed him being the greatest heel of all time obviously never watched him when the nWo was first created. he ws LOATHED. Nobody got more heat than Hogan. As a performer, he was a big partof the two highest points in the business: the 80s boom and the Monday Night Wars. Great. Good for him. But Hogan is one of the most conniving, egotistical, manipulative, lying, backstabbing people I've heard of in any industry - ever. The no-sell for Vader in the WWF. His refusal to job for Bret Hart. His refusal to job to Andre or Dibiase at WMIV. And pretty much his entire carer in WCW: demanding to be put over Flair on his arrival, blaming the writing staff when the fans got on his case, pulling string to get all his buddies high-paying jobs (that whole Dungeon of Doom angle ws his idea, basically), the match with Sting which WAS Hogan's fault [NOTE: the whole rumor regarding the ref comes from the fact the Nick Patrick was the ref, Patrick was a close friend of Hogan, and before the match the two had a heated discussion that was clearly not in kayfabe] the match with Goldberg whihc Hogan only agreed to so as to show that he was a huge draw when the event had been sold out for weeks befiore it was announced Hogan would even be there, the shit he pulled where he would disappear for weeks durung the NBA playoffs then return once they ended and then take credit for the natural ratings boost, and on and on and on and on..... Hogan has done some evil things in his career. Evil, wretched things. And it takes away from that feeling of nostalgia. Beyond just the things HBK said (which were all 100% correct BTW) it's that once you know about the stuff he's done within the business its just hard to get behind him. Hogan HAS put people over before: Savage, Warrior, DDP, Angle, Lesnar (big time!), and he gave Edge a rub by tagging with him. But none of that really balances the fact that for 25 years Hogan scrwed everyone around him, even guys he clainmed were his best friends, in order to take care of himself. |

Hogan and Michaels are both egotisticsal, caniving bastards. You guys are trying to make HBK as the goodguy lol.
Regardless i still wanna see the match for historical purposes, and it'll be interesting to see how Hogan does..if he can hang with HBK...I wana order the PPV, but now that Bradshaw is in a title match makes me wana reconsider... |

No one in this thread defended HBK. The topic was "why do people have such a problem with Hogan?" The reason why HBK was even brought up is because his promo on Monday was so dead-on accurate. It wouldn't have matter who said it, everything he said about Hogan was true.

That HBK promo by the way was the best one ive seen from him in a while, i saw the looks on some of the Hogan fans faces (the ones wearing hogan shirts) and they were stunned. |
