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.
