Contrived, perhaps, but wasn't that the highest-rated segment of Monday night wrestling ever?

Can't believe quite how average this PPV has been.

He we go

See how many injuries the sloppy bastard can dish out during his cameo...

When did Hogan's billing switch from Venice Beach, Ca, to Tampa, Fl?

They were apparently having financial problems for a while...

The more I listen to it, the more it sounds like Vince. The early "I know I'm sexy" just sound Vince through and through.

Is this version of Shawn Michaels' music (it's not him or Sherri) sung by Vince McMahon? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEqbRgt6Rts

Hogan with the tag belt...

While wrestling-wise, Rock is not on the level of Hogan, his movies have blown away anything Hogan has ever made. Neither are any good. The Rock has not got the global crossover into film yet - and I don't think he has the ability to achieve it. But it depends what group we are considering - if 100 people on the street were asked to "name a wrestler," Hogan would surely be mentioned more than any other name.

The answer is Hulk Hogan. But Hulk Hogan is the face of not just WWF/E, but pro wrestling in general. And the crowd reaction at WM18 showed the Rock is still several rungs away from Hogan's level - and unless he surprises the world and makes a watchable film, he'll never reach it.

Did Vince McMahon really once ask Goldust to consider getting breast implants?

Crush would have been an even more logical winner of the challenge. Somebody supposedly from Hawaii slamming someone supposedly Japanese on the deck of a US Navy aircraft carrier that served during WWII? It writes itself!
