But to be fair it really is a slap in the face to all the big moves TNA made recently (dropping brooke etc) to throw a shitload (hopefully it turns out to be like 5k more per appearance) and the OVW talent to pay for more hogan.

I don't agree 'bout Sting, but the rest - true dat.

It's his mic time ive hated lately, and i usually dont have the problem. He shit sold Magnus and his match at BFG (even though the script was just perfect) and before that with Rampage it was as bad, if not worse.

I want him in a GM role but if he cant speak like hes a 5th grader in his first speech class, i dont want him around. Angle also is hard to see now because all i see is his mugshot. I wonder if thats how people who've seen mine would view me (im doing the fonz...ehhhhhh) and i wonder how people who saw his first dealt with it. How did you?

This is so sad to hear as a TNA fan (if true, since this is Meltzer), but I can't help to giggle and smile when a MELTZER report says that a fucking TNA (you know, the "compuy" that "has no money" and "is going out of buildness in one yr") offered Hogan more money than a fucking WWE.

But, why do I still think IWC 'tards (even after reading this "holy" report) will continue saying TNA has no money? I know, but I'll keep that to myself.

It's not that "TNA has more money than the WWE" in this case. Rather WWE not willing to give Hogan money.

Lol I know what it's about, I just want to say to these idiots of a haters that TNA still has money. And last time I checked, TNA has over 40 wrestlers to pay.

lolright. :pity: :pity2:



:pity1:

It seems most likely: OBviously TNA isn't broke but working under a budget. And obviously WWE's is vastly bigger. But the report itself said that WWE wasn't willing to pay Hogan more for a year than either Rock or Brock made in one night. They see that Hogan doesn't bring any relevancy since he wouldn't compete in ring, thus negating his self appointed high prize tag. Meanwhile Ditzie is a Hogan Mark and Hogan has years of experience playing her.

This thread has become ultimately depressing. Great fucking business move there, TNA. So glad you "trimmed the fat" and made cutbacks elsewhere so that you could continue lining Hulk's pockets more and more. Thanks for that.

I wonder how much $$$ Hulkamania has made over his entire career, I know he lost loads a few years ago but I mean total earnings. I reckon about $200m.

Bash 'em creatively all you want, but Vince has some clue of what he's doing. Bleh.

Hogan will always be welcome in WWE. It's the house that Hogan built. When it's agreeable for both parties, they'll work together. Vince said once that Hogan could be 90 years old and in a wheelchair, and he'll still draw money in WWE. I believe it. Furthermore, people who don't respect Hogan and what he's done for the business over the last 30 years do nothing but show their utter ignorance for the craft.
