Deja Vu?

I've seen this before. Couple months ago.

I wonder if Hogan actually thinks a run on the top would be anything less than a complete failture.

yea, I read that the other day. What you don't see here is that Melzer actually said that nobody wants to see Hogan lose and that Hogan losing is not really good business. He compared Hogan to like a Flair/HBK/Foley, where people don't mind seeing "legends" like these losing, but Hogan is a different story. Every wants to see Hogan do his "routine" and then get the win.

Kind of see his point in one way, but it's tough to agree.

I think it's because most fans are not familiar with him losing.

I don't know. I think with Hogan, you get a short pay day eathier way. If he comes in and feuds with Austin/Piper/Hassan...etc.. and wins, people will pay just because it's Hogan again. Eventually it wears off though like two years ago.

If Hogan puts guys over, it will be a quick pay day once again because it's Hogan, but eventually if Hogan keeps jobbing, people won't want to see that anymore.

That's why Hogan should only come in to put someone over (Hassan, Orton, Cena, or Batista) just like what Foley does.

Build him up with some minor matches, use him to put people over, retire him. Short term paycheck? Perhaps, but why not use him before the novelty wears off?

I've always liked when Hogan loses.

And how stupid it would be to have guys to job to him? I mean, you got an old man with bad knees and 3 moves beating guys who are younger, bigger, faster, stronger and simply much better.

Here is the article. Makes some good points. Sorry if there is typos, I typed it fast and right off the article.

He should win almost all his matches, but he can't be on top, aside from perhaps a novelty one or two month deal. But with money he wants, he really can't be justified in the middle for any length of time eathier. With his artificial knee and hip, I think he and everyone realizes Hogan's role is going to be to drop in and stay just until his novelty waers out, and then dissapear, but perhaps on better terms that the past few times. There have been talks with Hogan about wrestling, but if they don't shoot an angle by 3/21, (yesterday) there is no point in wasting it. In a sense, Hogan would mean more for overseas tours, but then again, only if they are doing a staduim type event, because the overseas tours don't need his help to draw.There was talk of using Hogan on major international events. Japanese sources were talking about a Tokyo Dome event, but this past weekm we heard that was no longer on the cards.


Hogan can lose and make someone because he's past the point where he can where he can be hurt and is bullet proof, but should only lose once, at the end of his run, and have it played up big, because him losing and not having it harped on constantly means it'll have no impact anyway. Unlike Flair or even Michales (who doesn't realize it himself, or else we wouldn't be having him beat Edge on TV), who people like to see and don't mind seeing them lose, Hogan really shouldn't lose because people don't enjoy seeing it. Well, some people do, (Sickboy up there :lol) but it's not the right thing. When Hogan was in the last few times, he jobbed for a lot of people, but the only one who really got anything out of it was Lesner, because it was such a strong win for Lesner and because it was played up big after the fact. His losses to Taker, and HHH were lousy matches that didn't get anyone over. His loss to Rock actually helped him and hurt Rock because of how well he played it. His loss to Angle should of helped Angle, but it wasn't played up after the fact that Hogan submitted for the first time ever, sp that was more of a problem of follow-though than anything else.

I think Edge and Hogan should work a program where Edge teams up with Hogan (this could easily be explained that Hogan talked to Edge and showed Edge how horrible he was being) then in a tag team match Edge turns on Hogan.

This leads to a match where Edge pins Hogan cleanly.

Yeah that will never happen, but I'd love it.

ok everyone seems to have a problem w/ Hogan winning all the time. However, I feel it would be detremental to his character if he came back to job.

If you feel this way about Hogan, how would you feel about Undertaker(WHOM EVERYBODY LOVES) jobbing every other match? It would destroy his character as it would Hogan.

I know you're new here, but a lot of people do NOT like the Undertaker.

I like him, but there are a lot of people who don't.

I should have more clearly stated that relative to Hogan everyone seems to like Taker.

That just killed any credibility these guys had with me. That probably wasn't even one of the first TEN times Hogan's submitted in his career.

Why should it matter? Taker shouldn't be on top either.

He's getting on in years and can't perform OR draw like he used to.

All of them useless old farts.

Hogan should work a program with Randy Orton. Reason being, it'd be a safe loss for Hogan, and would boost Randy's Legend Killer gimmick. People would absolutely despise Randy for beating Hogan as a result. It would be just like Hogan and Rock.
