Talk about your problems with theft: Ken Shamrock signs a written contract with Golden Canvas Grappling behind my back. Scott Hall signs a written deal with NWA TNA. GCG stole Sting(who was supposed to be revealed as the new owner by the way) right out from underneath my nose. TNA also signed Terry Funk(who I signed at the beginning of the month because I wanted to start a Hardcore Division. Hardcore meaning they would go to the top rope instead of the second rope for high risk moves) God I hate this game sometimes-Bob Backlund, who was supposed to be the new owner broke his arm and will be out for two months. Okay I signed two possible new owners to written contracts. Axl Rotten is becoming difficult to deal with. SCREW IT. I have had enough people being stolen/checked into rehab/injured/whatever. In a bit of interesting news, Sable has signed with XPW. I will leave it at that however. Marty Jannetty is becoming difficult to deal with. Ignore. and I must go to look for my napkin that has the Old School Experience match listings. Off the top of my head:New Owner. Koloff vs Luger in a non-title match(I wonder who is going to win that one since it is non title), titles get defended. Dames dishes out negative stars. Honky Tonk Man vs Marty Janetty in the dark segment.

In the news, Scott Hall checked into rehab for personal problems. Yes I know, I am as shocked as you are. Rumors that someone spiked the milk that Hall was drinking at the PPV with booze. He was recovering well too. Abdullah the Butcher has found religion. Okay you want distressful. Hulk Hogan was STOLEN underneath my nose by that no good rotten son of a bitch Vince McMahon. He is still the owner of this federation. Vince McMahon got his fed back in the downtime. I forgot to put him under an unsackable agreement by the looks of it. The lovely stuff continues as Marty Janetty admits he has a drug problem. In other news the grass is green. I ignore. TNT has rejected our deal for the a TV Deal. Lovely, just lovely. The next event is Old School Experience. We will have an update on the management situation of Pro Wrestling Hogan. It is royally fucked six ways from Sunday. Rumors that the board of directors will have a new commisioner/figurehead owner named.

In incident news:Marc Mero gets injured and Kamala has found religion. Okay Kamala now gets a new gimmick-Kamala:The Savage Priest. Or maybe not. PWH-The Revival September 20th, 2003: A video highlighting some great moments in the career of Hulk Hogan(in PWH that is) before the show. 92 Hulk Hogan comes out with all the title belts of Pro Wrestling Hogan. He says that tonight shall be a great night. Like the night that he bodyslammed the 25 ton Andre The Giant. Like the night he beat all 800 members of the Dungeon of Doom all by himself. Like his match with Vince McMahon at Wrestlemania XIX which was the real main event. It stole the show from those vanilla midgets, Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle. Hogan says that all the titles are vacant on this night of revival. Hogan says that the 10 Minute Time Limit Title will be on the line when 10 top PWH superstars go at it. The Red and Yellow Tag Titles will be on the line when The Midnight Express, The Rock and Roll Express(they patched up their differences during the off time) and the Road Warriors go at it. In a three way dance for the United States Title, Kamala, Jim Duggan, and Scott Hall will go at it. and for the PWH Big Red and Yellow Title..... The Next Hulk Hogan, Lex Luger vs Vader vs Nikita Koloff vs the Next Hulk Hogan after Lex Luger blows the big one........the newest signing of PWH........Zach Gowen.

We are getting to the 80s slowly but surely. The 1880s that is when that new deadly move, the clothesline, was feared throughout the land. Koloff is the Big Red and Yellow Champion. I am sure he would uphold the honor of past champions such as Nathan Jones and Giant Gonzales. Or who says I won't have him job the title to Luger if we get a TV show on the first one to pop a rating. Overall:65 0.30 Buyrate for Revival.
