Major Hogan vs. Austin Update, Match Possibly Booked; More

[Joe Kerr]

The AWA has recently been claiming that there is a credible offer for a Hulk Hogan vs. Steve Austin match from the United Arab Emirates. As of this point, the AWA has not contacted either Hogan or Austin about the offer, but there is some claim that the UAE promoters are willing to pay both Hogan and Austin $200,000 for the match.

In reference to the AWA, WWE had actually threatened to sue the company for infringing on it's intellectual property which has to do with the AWA name. Dale Gagner has been using the name since 1996, and the company claims legal rights to the name in the state of Minnesota. WWE's argument is that they had purchased all assets of Verne Gagne's AWA, mainly the tape library, and they believe that they also own the rights to the AWA name.
