Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2007 - Regarding Hulk Hogan's interview on Bubba the Love Sponge yesterday, where he said that he was through with WWE and would not be appearing at WrestleMania, as of Thursday that story was 100% accurate. Vince McMahon has blown his stack again, largely over the incident where Hogan discussed the WWE Hall of Fame with John Lauranitis' secretary live on the air. We'll have more in next week's newsletter and on the radio show in the next few days. Keep in mind that if you look at how Vince works historically, there is still a decent chance Hogan will end up working the show. But as of right now, there are zero plans. WWE.com had all Hulk Hogan merchandise on clearance today. F4W So, no Hogan at WM unless Vince changes his mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Totally Crazy Report post Posted February 9, 2007 I don't know what's worse: typing WWECW or WW e F EDIT: had to space it because they fixed it so you CAN'T type that way. I've seen people type it like that before, so that's what I was going off of. Let's all keep on advertising, I dont know why the WWE keeps mad mouthing the ICW so much when there's so much 'promoting' being done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2007 Getting things back on track, more on the Hogan situation: --Hulk Hogan and Vince McMahon did have a big falling out. Unless things change quickly, Hogan will be out of Wrestlemania. Among people high in the mix, believe it or not, don't expect them to change. Others also don't expect Hogan at Mania but figure even though Vince insists he'll never use him again, that Hogan will be back at some point. Hogan was scheduled to face Shane McMahon (with Great Khali in the corner) on the show as part of the Donald Trump vs. Vince McMahon angle. The angle, involving new wrestlers filling in those slots, should become evident in the next few weeks, although Bobby Lashley is currently slated to fill Hogan's slot on the card as Trump's protege. Hogan and Vince have had numerous fallings out, and everyone knows things can change on a dime, but there is a new angle in place. Meltzer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2007 In a way, Hogan not being at WM is similar to Hunter being out injured. As with Hunter being out forced them out of their comfort zone and kick things into gear, Hogan being left out as forced them to put Lashley into the mix with Trump and Vince. While Lashley isn't exactly firing up the masses, it's at least a legitimate attempt at trying to get over new talent, that as limited as he is, has the potential to be something good to great. Hogan being left out might be the best thing to happen for the short and long term. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would assume it's still Shane with Khali, and Lashley gets the spot of slamming Khali to get him over as a powerhouse. Actually makes a lot more sense than putting Hogan over him. There's a possibility of a lasting effect using Lashley in the angle, whereas Hogan you get a one night pop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2007 The booking of the angle could get tricky as I really don't see Trump showing up on ECW programming(which is of course taped on Tuesday). So Lashley "jumps" to Raw for the angle and ECW is left even more barren. The only other possibility would be to tape ECW before Raw for the time being, and let SD! have Heat. I think the angle would be better served with Trump choosing Shane and Khali and Vince countering with Lashley. Lashley is terrible on the mic, and anybody who has watched The Apprentice knows that Trump is terrible reciting lines/reading a teleprompter. If it was booked the way I suggested, Vince could do all the talking for Lashley and Shane could do the bulk of the mic work for Trump. Of course it would basically be Shane vs Vince all over again. Maybe keep Shane O'Mac on the sidelines and use Ken Kennedy who seems without a dance partner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Human Fly 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2007 Sometimes things just seem to work out despite how things are being run. This Hogan - Lashley situation is one of those things. To blow so many rubs in one match on Hulk Hogan would have been idiotic. What is the latest Hogan - Vince falling out over? The HOF phone call? The HOF phone call and other little things? Or just Hogan asking for an obscene amount of money? Will be interesting to see if Hogan and Big Show try and go to TNA in a package deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
