iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2005 Shawn isn't trying to get face heat on Hogan. He's just trying to keep the feud interesting. The fact is, Hogan's not going to show up on Raw every week. When Shawn's out there cutting a promo by himself, he needs to do something to keep the fans interested, especially if Hogan/HBK is the match they're banking on to sell Summerslam. If he just did the same old cookie cutter face/heel stuff they usually do, this match wouldn't have anywhere near the interest that it does now. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they changed the storyline a little bit because of the response Matt got when he came back and "shot" on Edge. If you remember right, that first night on Piper's Pit, Shawn was his same old, stoic, boring, self, and the feud was just fading into oblivion. I think they decided that they'd take a cue from the Matt/Edge feud, and try to give both of their big matches for Summerslam a "real" feeling to them.
