  1. As much as I don't want to see Kane-HHH, it's the most logical match. I can't defend Brock-Hardcore though...
  2. Maybe he should return to put over HHH in a match.
  3. -There is an improvement (not a huge one mind you). But carrying can be taking a limited and/or clumsy worker and getting a match out of them that gets over. Hogan has done this many times. -I don't judge how good a worker is soley on moveset or workrate. Hogan was a good worker BECAUSE of his impeccable timing, knowledge of how a match should go, and charisma. Judging him by today's "workrate" standard, he won't match up but that's not what I'm talking about. I just see things a little differently.
  4. It CAN be considered a carry if the match is better than expected. For example, Hogan/Bundy from WM 2 . This match was DUD material from the start, but with Hogan's ability to work(80's superhero style) it actually ended up about **. That proves that Hogan in his prime can carry total loads of shit in the ring. Also, I would be hard pressed to find a Bundy match better than that one. Upgrading a match from "total disaster on paper" to "barely watchable" does not constitute a carry. A carry is Benoit getting a ** match out of Nathan Jones on SmackDown a few weeks ago. The Bundy match was about 1/2*...MAYBE * if I was in a good mood. Hogan's good matches have, with one or two exceptions, been with guys who knew how to work (see Savage, Randy; Flair, Ric). And Bundy has never had a good one-on-one match (maybe the SD Jones 8-second special at the original WM, just for the "oh good, it's over" factor). His best match was the six-man midget match at WM III. A match doesn't have to reach a certain star-rating to be considered a carry. Hogan has carried guys. Period. And he's a damn good worker. Period. Although you and I may have different definitions for that word.
  5. Yes, it is. Or can be.
  6. Words that will probably never be spoken again. No, Hogan has had to carry quite a few people through his career. Name's and dates please....... I don't have the exact dates but here are the names: Andre (1987) The Bossman (1988) Brutus (every time) Ultimate Warrior (1990) Undertaker (1991) The Giant (a couple of times) Those are the obvious ones. +All the big fat bastards he carried at various points in his career. +The countless workers that he was at least on equal footing with. Hogan was a damn good worker at times afterall. Dude, it was sarcasm. I agree he did carry some of the hosses he fought during his first two initial WWF title runs. But where the matches any good? Not many. I was the biggest mark for the guy when I was young, but let's be serious here for a second. The guy hasn't has many matches above the *** area(if any). I wasn't saying he has (although he has: vs. Savage, Dibiase, Flair, and others). Were his matches against One Man Gang and Bundy four star matches? No, but Hogan has carried some of them.
  7. I hope he dosn't show at WM20. Especially not as a ref or as part of some angle.

  9. Holy crap! Issue Three is the best one yet! It's also the best super-hero comic of the year!!
  10. Words that will probably never be spoken again. No, Hogan has had to carry quite a few people through his career.
  11. And, at your prices, you're practically giving them away!!
  12. Sadly Bradshaw looks his best right now! Which isn't saying much considering some of the AWFUL looks he's sported in the past.
  13. No chance in Hell!
  14. I'm looking for a good Midnight Express comp. Who has the best quality/variety/price? I'd really appreciate the help!
  15. The body-waxing along would take days with A-Train...
  16. I hope you're right.
  17. I don't see that he "deserves" a title run. If they were going to do it, the should have done it long ago (and it wouldn't have lasted a month anyway). Everyone needs to accept that. Where's Bill Shatner when you need him?
  18. Because that won't draw money, you hopeless internet geek.
  19. All these guys are in need of a makeover. There can only be one choice though!!
  20. *snicker*
  21. Does this website do this in some attempt to not get shut down by the WWE?
  22. Well, it is wrestling.
  23. Well, it is wrestling.
  24. Are we sure about Mr.P being slated to win that Rumble? Or that Hogan-Zeus was being planned for WM6? I thought those were urban myths...
