Based on the amount of disappointment or harsh criticism I've read on this thread about the WWE and it's direction sucking, I think it's time for the WWE to bring back the Immortal HULK HOGAN for a ratings boost.. Like the guy or not, he does bring in the ratings and I do hope that Austin finds his smile and they go with AUSTIN vs HOGAN at Wrestlemania and HOGAN beats his ass, which I think he will..


Unless WWE has a trick up their sleeve, I doubt Austin will agree. To be honest, I doubt Hogan will agree. Apparently, rumor going around is that he wasn't happy with his paycheck for "Summerslam". Just a rumor, I guess, but I wouldn't be surprised.

While I enjoy seeing the Texas Rattlesnake myself, it's getting very tiresome seeing him "walk out" of the company about five or six times now. He did it before Wrestlemania 18, again in June 2002, again in March 2004, and again before Taboo Tuesday. At least four, and that's only counting anything after 2002, and also assuming that he only walked out once around Wrestlemania 18.


Why don't they just send Austin to TNA where he's probably be happier and the WWE would be happier without him if he's that big of a pain in the ass??? :-k And what kind of paycheck was Hogan expecting???? I'm sure he got paid at LEAST $1,000,000 for his Awesome appearance right???


Becuase I'm sure TNA doesn't really want Austin and anyway Austin won't jump. His heart will always be with WWE.


Yeah, but will Vince's heart and the WWE always be with Austin???

Vince's heart is with the money. And Austin can make you money.

Vince reviews Hart's DVD on RAW this week. I smell appearance by Hart in future.

I think TNA would jump to fork over dough for Austin, but it certainly wouldn't be the money he gets in WWE, hence he'll never go anywhere else except WWE. Whenever he "walks out", it's probably a money issue. I'm sure if WWE gave him more money, he would have wrestled at Taboo Tuesday.

As for "Hogan Knows Best", I always felt like there was something more to them... :blink: Could be some family relations going on.

I can certainly see Vince tearing apart the DVD, since Hart has denied appearing on the show in a storyline or just an appearance. Imagine if Bret was the new GM! I'd pretty much die. Too bad there's a better chance of Andre the Giant coming back... :unsure:

Ashley is hot.

I'm going to Smackdown tomorrow night. I've never been to a WWE show so it should be fun.

UPN got pissed at him, and he caused a lot of controversy because he like appeared the day of the London Attack. (even though Smackdown was taped before the attacks) So facing heat from media and UPN, WWE decided to kill off the character in a match with Undertaker.

What!! He was one of the best characters they had. Why the hell did they keep his side kick then?

I got to see Matt Hardy injure Booker T. That was the most memorable part of the night.

Wow, what a pointless 13-minute segment to end the show last night. What was that? What can that really lead to?

Vince vs. HBK at WM?

Personally my favorite part of the night was when Mickie and Trish kissed. The rest of the show sucked.

Shelton's momma's coming!

I thought about Vince vs. HBK, but Vince can't even hop into the ring without hurting his leg.

How can Edge wrestle Flair, if Edge is injured?

Since when is it cool to rip off Conan O'Brien?

Did Chavo win his match against Masters?

Will we ever have a new GM?

Why didn't Bret Hart defend himself last night? That would have been cool, to see the Hitman.

:blink: Apparently, WWE is bringing back Charlie Haas, Chuck Palumbo, and Aaron Aguilera (Jesus in 2004). Since they brought back Jamie Noble and Brian Kendrick, I'm not surprised at the news.

And, just to add a post because I can, this is now the third biggest thread in the Sports section. Not bad at all!

Haas = Great
Jesus and Palumbo = don't care

I heard that WWE is interested in Samoa Joe.

Isn't it the other way around? I heard Samoa Joe wanted more money from TNA, but they're currently delivering truckloads of money to Sting. He's apparently shoving WWE in their face, and pretending that he'd actually go there, but I doubt he would. He's just holding out, because he knows they'll fork over the dough.

Besides, if given the opportunity, would Vince want a name like Samoa Joe in WWE? He seems set in his ways that anything and everything involving TNA does not exist. I liked his little dig at TNA on Monday, by saying there's no rival company like WCW that HBK can run off to.

You hear the little "TNA TNA" chant in the backround.

Hasn't Vince learned that his wrestlers will go to TNA already with Christian leaving.

Samoa Joe doesn't have the WWE look when I think about. All musicles, no talent.

He's going to be a trend-setter. It hasn't happened yet for anyone, since no contracts are up. Chris Benoit and Paul Heyman are the next in line. I think Benoit will take the WWE contract, and ask for a lighter schedule and get it. Heyman, on the other hand, I could easily see going to TNA. Apparently, there are issues between Heyman and Stephanie, and he also said earlier this year that he would like to see some competition for the WWE, to help both companies. Let's face it, Vince would have to work extra hard if TNA became a real competitor in a year or two. I hardly classify the 0.8 rating that TNA Impact normally gets as competition for the WWE, but if it started to grow, and the primetime specials did some damage, then they'd be in business. Give them time.
