Hulk Hogan was interviewed in the Tampa Bay area. Who else would pay to see a shoot fight between Hogan and Bubba The Love Sponge? As long as both men come out bloody and injured, society as a whole wins. Does anyone really believe that Hogan doesn't remember slamming Andre? He mentions it in pretty much interview.
Fox News has more on the proposed business association between the NFL and WWE. Imagine if WWE cut 40 wrestlers every year like each NFL team does. I'm also starting to feel that if Creative can't come up with something for a wrestler, it might be Creative who needs replacing. Percy Watson was a solid athlete with charisma. I think he could have been a partner to an Alex Riley or Ted DiBiase. Maybe even JTG or Curt Hawkins. He had skills is the point.
Jerry Lawler talked about returning to the ring on the indie scene. As tired of his commentary as I am, I don't wish death on him or anything.
Everything else from yesterday is after the break.
WWE is expected to sign Sami Callihan and possibly some other DGUSA names shortly. It'll be interesting to see what WWE looks like in a few years when these indie stars theoretically make it big and we see less of the guys nearing or over 40.
Bret Hart Tweeted about the loss of his brother on the 15th anniversary of his passing. 15.... 15 years!? I remember that like it was yesterday. I didn't have such good access to wrestling back then and found out about it the next day at school in gym class. Very awkward moment. Then there was the Raw devoted to him with all the good memories and crying. Pretty emotional time.
Here's another interview with Hulk Hogan, teasing having another match. Oh, joy! Obviously he's as "ready" as they come. Cruiserweights can cruiser-wait, etc.. Honestly, I wouldn't mind Bully vs. Hogan from a business standpoint IF Bully kicks his ass and it's just leading to Bully vs. AJ. Given Hogan's extensive history of injuries, I don't see how we can believe him having a chance against someone like Bully Ray. But there are still Hulkamaniacs who will tune in to see Hogan wrestle and if TNA can spin something good out of that, more power to them.
TJ Perkins, a.k.a. Puma, was under the mask as Suicide at the recent TNA taping. He's got a good deal of experience for someone under 30. As far as flippy guys go, he's pretty good at being flippy.
More wrestling tomorrow.
