HULK HOGAN is back, and has signed a new contract with Stephanie McMahon !!

 

Vince McMahon comes out and tells Stephanie how disappointed in her, he is. He said, "Hogan is a has been, he is as dead as Al Wilson". "It is not 1985, it is now 2003."

 

Hulk Hogan says, it's his last run, and he will not disappoint anyone. He rips off his shirt, knocks down Vince and throws the shirt and mic on Vince.

 

While this was going on the Arena went nuts. Calling Vince an a-hole, and cheering on Hogan. This makes for great TV, especially if your a Hogan fan.

So the Vince vs Hogan feud has started.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

What the hell was Vince doing at Smackdown in the first place?

[Guest The Amazing Rando]

What the hell was Vince doing at Smackdown in the first place?

maybe trying to remember what actual wrestling looked like...

 

 

...or not

[Guest Mole]

Why wouldn't be be Kotzen? He is the owner of WWE, he can go anywhere.

 

It looks like the Taker/A-Train feud is over, thank god.

 

Looks like a good Smackdown. HAS to be better than Raw..

[Guest Just call me Dan]

Hogan Vince at Wrestlemania, I presume.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

Yeah, but just BAM! he comes out? Sheesh, you think they'd hype his appearance, given how well it worked for Raw's ratings.

[Guest Just call me Dan]

Probably because Austin hasn't even agreed to come back. They probably just threw that together and said he'll probably be at NWO. Yeah, and Heenan was a lock for the RAW X.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Holy Shit.

 

Hogan

 

Vince

 

Montreal

 

No Way Out.

 

Hottest

 

Match

 

Ever.

[Guest Banky]

No Eddie? ::sigh::

[Guest The Amazing Rando]

The only way Hogan and Vince will be the hottest match ever is if a disgruntled Montreal-ite storms the ring and sets it on fire

[Guest wwF1587]

I like Stephs announcement way better... she brought someone back to the delight of the fans... RAW made an empty promise that noone is real sure if they can deliver .. RAW still cant even come close to this shit ... and I cant wait for SD!... Beniot/Hass Edge/Benjamin Angle/Rey.. and hogan/mcmahon start their fued... SA WEET!

[Guest AndrewTS]

Good thing HHH stepped in and made sure Jericho didn't touch Vince, and instead got bitchslapped and knocked unconscious by Cena, to keep this hot Hogan-Vince program going.

 

Oh...wait...that was last year.

 

Some hoss vs. hoss guaranteed DUDs, but we're also getting good workers vs. great workers.

 

WHY THE FUCK DO WE NEED TAKER AND HOGAN THOUGH?! WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY?!!

 

This better mean Hogan's about to retire for good.

[Guest Will Scarlet]

So, the DeMott, "he's a bully" push is over? DAMN IT ALL!

[Guest Just call me Dan]

I truly believe he is.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

I don't particularly like either bombshell as a bombshell - because they aren't - but me being a Hogan mark and the 2 possible angles that Hogan can do on his return are pretty interesting.

 

Hogan and Edge team up vs. Team Angle (or who ever) and Edge turns on Hogan (for whatever reason - being too old, holding people down, use your imagination) That would get Edge over HUGE as a heel. That could lead up to a WM match where Hogan puts edge over, or could make for a spring program where Hogan puts edge over and calls it a career.

 

Hogan vs. Vince in Montreal. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if the fans rioted... Ok, I would be surprised, but the fact that Montreal is hot for Hogan and has equal hotness at the other end of the spectrum for Vince just makes for an explosive match. Will it suck? Sure, but the HEAT! MY GOD THE HEAT!

[Zetterberg is God 0]

Just imagine. Hogan versus Vince in Montreal. Hogan just has to say how he might be getting revenge for Bret, and the heat would be unbeliveable.

[Conspiracy_Victim 0]

Boy good to see that up and coming talent Palumbo puts over the talented new guy. I guess a cruiser can't beat a heavyweight, might put distressing thoughts in their heads like say ELEVATION. The more things change, etc. etc.

[Guest EternallyLazy]

I doubt we'll see McMahon/Hogan NWO. Hogan will probably face someone else... and since they'll be in Montreal, Hogan will get screwed by McMahon, leading up to the match at Mania

Full WWE Smackdown Taping Results [spoilers]

Thanks to 411 reader S. Issacs for sending in this report.

 

WWE Smackdown Taping Results 01.21.03

Taped from Albany, NY

 

Just got back from the Pepsi Arena in Albany...

 

The big news, of course, is that Steph's big surprise turned out to be the Hulkster, sans fake black beard. He got a ten minute standing ovation before he finally started talking. The crowd ate it up. He talked about how he signed a new contract and was ready for one final journey with his Hulkamaniacs. Of course, that brought out Vince. He said if that was Steph's big surprise, he's disappointed. Said Hulkamania and Al Wilson have one thing in common- they're dead. Hulk then said there's one WWE superstar that he wants to get in the ring with first. And guess who that is? Hulk lays out Vince with a punch and leaves. That's probably where the show ends. Vince then got on the stick and said "You want to crap on me? I'll crap back! This is the last WWE event this shitty town will ever see!" Then he left, and the lights came up.

 

Other results:

 

Show starts with Steph promising a huge surprise you won't want to miss.

 

Chris Benoit d. Charlie Haas with a rollup. I couldn't believe this match- it was all Haas, and it was long. You'd think they'd let the guy that almost won the title on Sunday dominate, but I guess they need to keep Team Angle strong. Team Angle does have new, matching warmup suits. Haas also had a modified version of Angle's theme (different than the Anthology version), but it was not used later for Shelton Benjamin (likely because it doesn't work with the You Suck! chant).

 

Red Dog d. Bull Buchanan via submission to the Fujiwara Armbar. Cena's rap included references to Right to Censor and the Truth Commission. Very funny. Post-match, the Guerreros came in, and promised some "Chicanics" to counter-act the "Thugenomics." Funny, yet slightly racist stuff (from Cena)... Guerreros ran off Cena and the "Notorious D-O-G" with chains.

 

Rikishi d. Bill DeMott with the Banzai Splash onto DeMott's injured arm. DeMott was wearing a cast. I was at the Rumble on Sunday and saw the cane shot that likely broke a bone. Pretty nasty. Match, of course, sucked.

 

Undertaker demanded Big Show face him in the ring. Instead the Big Show sent out the A-Train...

 

Undertaker d. A-Train via submission to the Dragon Sleeper.

I swear, this match did not suck! A-Train kicked out of the chokeslam, blocked the Last Ride, and delivered a Baldo Bomb. But UT kicked out and locked in the Sleeper for the win.

 

The same Nathan Jones spot from Monday.

 

Brock Lesnar came out and gave a terrible interview. He misspoke a lot. Basically ran through his accomplishments and promised to beat Kurt Angle at WM 19. Would have been better served with a video package.

 

Edge d. Shelton Benjamin clean with the spear. You will want to see the kick Benjamin delivered AFTER Edge blocked the Superkick. Benjamin spun around in midair and delivered a spin kick. Awesome move.

 

Kurt Angle reamed out Shelton and Charlie for being losers, and promised to lead by example.

 

Matt Hardy told Shannon to prove himself against Nunzio. After Shannon left, Matt told Nunzio to teach Shannon a lesson in Mattitude. Nunzio promised a "family lesson."

 

Nunzio d. Moore via the flying single arm DDT. OK match.

 

Kurt Angle d. Rey Misterio with a move that has to been seen to be believed. Great match that featured Kurt taking almost all of Rey's offense. The finish involved Kurt flipping Rey over his head so Rey's head hit the turnbuckle, then Kurt felt back, German Suplexing Rey, and folding him up for the 1-2-3. Cool move.

 

Lower bowl of the arena was filled. The black screens they put up for hockey were up... a few people were sitting in the front rows of the upper deck. Crowd was enthusiastic for the Undertaker and Hogan. They really gave it to Angle and Vince.

 

Should be a good show on TV... although some things will need to be cut because the Hogan ovation really went long.

[Guest Vern Gagne]

Brock Lesnar came out and gave a terrible interview. He misspoke a lot. Basically ran through his accomplishments and promised to beat Kurt Angle at WM 19. Would have been better served with a video package.

Shhh...Don't tell Anglesault.

[Guest Mulatto Heat]

Shhh...Don't tell Anglesault.

I was about to post something similar. I fully expect this interview to be the focus of his posts instead of Angle's second clean win in a week (and #3 in a row against Mysterio). The priorities are amazing.

 

I couldn't believe this match- it was all Haas, and it was long.

 

Yay. Way to capitalize from the Rumble. I'll surpress any further comment.

 

A-Train kicked out of the chokeslam, blocked the Last Ride, and delivered a Baldo Bomb.

Taker's big moves being kicked out of and evaded by a virtual jobber?

 

He talked about how he signed a new contract and was ready for one final journey with his Hulkamaniacs.

I hope he's telling the truth this time. As for Hogan/Vince I have no problems with it. It's far better than Torrie/Dawn Marie.

[Guest EternallyLazy]

Let's wait to see how Tazz and Cole sell the commentary during Benoit/Haas. Maybe they'll talk about how tired and beaten down Benoit is after his war with Angle at the ppv

[Guest Rob Van Dam]

that second report didn't even mention the hogan returning segment, unless i'm missing it

[Guest FeArHaVoC]

And Stupid me went to work instead!

 

IF this was the last Event in Albany, I'm gonna be pissed! I'll be damned if I'm gonna drive to Montreal, NYC, Buffalo, Rochester or Syracuse for a WWE Event.

[Guest saturnmark4life]

Aw fuck it I love hogan. As long as he keeps jobbing, I don't mind having him around. Seriously. He can get beaten to death by team angle now. That'll be good for a laugh.

[Guest Caliban]

How about Hogan/Vince at Montreal... with Bret in Hogan's corner... AHAHAHAHAHA!!! The heat would be disgustingly good.

[Guest Mulatto Heat]

that second report didn't even mention the hogan returning segment, unless i'm missing it

Read the first big paragraph.

[Guest Bling-Bling Buchanan]

This Hogan/Vince thing could be really big. WHy the fuck aren't they doing something more important for Benoit though?

[Mecha Mummy 0]

Wow. Thank god they're really playing up to Spanky's gimmick of "guy who's supposed to be a jobber but keeps winning". Oh, wait, they aren't, they jobbed him to Chuck Palumbo who hasn't done anything of importance since October. My mistake, sorry.

[Guest FeArHaVoC]

Someone said it before, "NWO" will probably have a 6 Man Tag Match with Team Angle Vs Benoit, Edge and Rey. Benoit isn't going to get the Title this close to WM now, so at least this match will kick ass.
