Hogan is a big name, but what can he do in the ring now?  I saw him this morning talking about how broken down he is or was, either way I can't see him getting into the ring to do much.

Cancer if it was not for Hogan WCW would have folded long before it did.... Who do you think kept WCW alive all those years....  
Hogan in TNA it is the smartest thing the federation has done maybe now I will go see them live with a front row seat for Hogan....

You know I've thought it over I guess going through a messy divorce can lead to some big time legal bills and who knows if Nick Hogan has paid all his own legal bills too and the wrestling business seems to think they owe Hogan something so what the heck if stays out of the ring

I hope Hogan will wrestle Sting again.... What else does TNA have besides Hogan they wont be close to even threaten WWE ratings or ppv draws even if they brought back Fred Blassie, Andre the Giant, and Giant Baba from the grave.....

Sting who is still wayyyyyy past his prime is still better than Hogan was in his prime not much better but bettter  
 
Hogan's just trying to sell books Look at the young talent that'll be pushed aside due to reincarnation of Hogan now  
 
I'll grant you TNA isn't nearly as good as they were 6 months ago but bringing a fossil like Hogan ain't the answer

Hogan will help TNA ratings in the short term but that is it.  His presence will cause a temporary pop in the ratings, but he is no long term answer.  TNA has too many aging stars at this point, some of whom want out in the near future.  Angle, Steiner, Nash, Sting, now Hogan, etc. routinely headline the ppv cards.  I just don't see how TNA makes it with some of the bonehead decisions they make.  Personally, I think if they are going to use Hogan in the short term they need to pit him initially against AJ Styles in a young vs. old feud.  Styles of course needs to go over and get the win over Hogan.  Hogan could be of some slight value if he is used right.  But he doesn't need to carry their belt or anything.

I believe that Hogan is more then a short term answer. Also with all do respect Garvin Styles vs. Hogan is a joke unless they do a great angle for people to buy into the idea of Hogan vs. Styles..... Below is the answer
 
Hogan vs. Kevin Nash
Hogan vs. Sting
Hogan vs. Steiner
Hogan and Nash vs Team 3d
Hogan vs. Angle
Hogan vs. Angle vs. Sting
Hogan and Nash vs. Sting and Styles
 
Plus many more I can come up with.....

If Hogan is not the answer then TNA will become irrelevant as a federation come on sting on his best day in his prime could not be a bigger star then Hogan so who are you kidding. As far as young stars yea getting pushed aside do you care to name them cause from what I have seen They have Styles and that is it that comment was a joke right....

Can any of you on both hands count how many wrestling holds Hulk Hogan knows? I'll wait while you're counting Furthermore you improve TNA by brining in talented young guys now this McGuiness or Wolf or whatever didn't show me much against Angle last night
 
Get back some of the talent you lost namely Angelina Love and Gail Kim Get rid of the clumsy chick Lacy Von Erich before she kills someone Bring Jarrett back to the front office cause if he wwere still there Hogan wouldn't be there and also get rid of Dixie Carter for someone who has no interest being an onscreen character look how much she's been on tv lately???

Well,
 
First of all Angelina most likely won't ever be back. Second I think that Hulk Hogan will be good for the company, but booking with Bischoff, Ferrara, and Russo is a huge mistake. That track record has been seen before and you can definitely smell a Russo storyline when you see it. TNA at this point really has nothing including Nigel McGuiness. He was good in ROH, but he'll be watered down in TNA. Once guys from the indies hit TNA, TNA waters them down allot. I'm guessing it is Russo who doesn't like the high flyers because TNA has completely killed the X Division. THe knockouts were awesome until they added the useless Knockouts tag team division. They put more emphasis on that than the Knockouts title or X Division title.
 
I like TNA quite a bit, but to watch it now makes me sad. I'm hoping Hogan booking and overseeing stuff will give that roster what they need the most...excitement and un-predictability (is that a word?). Hogan shocked the world before when he turned to the nWo. I'm not expecting him to be in the limelight again in TNA or hold any titles, but it would be fun to see him cause a shocking moment with a TNA wrestler of younger era that is popular. Not AJ Styles because that wouldn't work. I think the Samoa Joe heel angle is terrible (or trrrrribullllll if you are Charles Barkley) with the whole Taz angle...that just didn't work. MEM was a mistake from the beginning. Things just need to become shocking and beleivable to get TNA up there where it needs to be. Nothing I watched last night besides Hulk Hogan coming to TNA was that great or beleivable including McGuiness attacking Angle and beating him down or I think it was AJ Styles bleeding after getting knocked out by someone. Uggggg...cheers to something that might help!

TNA's been smart to go out and get not only Hogan for the short-term but also Nigel McGinness and Bobby Lashley.  But now is the time that they're really going to have to step up and do something with the talent they have.  Russo isn't exactly the best booker in the world.

Jeff did it ever matter how many holds Hogan knows it is about selling tickets and getting ratings in the wrestling business. Jeff Jarrett could not hold hogan jock strap bottom line.... I do not care how good of a wrestler JJ is him and Hogan are not even in the same class.... As far as talent being lost that is not Hogans problem or fault...

I am with you Scorpion on the point of Russo and Bischoff booking I do not have tomuch faith in them more so on Russo's part I think he can not book for nothing.... I also think the Samoa Joe angle is terrible and hopefully they can fix that quick.....

Hulk Hogan will destroy TNA as we know it. When I look at the smaller guys in TNA and think of Hogan I can't help but think of Hogan's comments about Billy Kidman working the flea market. Hogan is going to think the same thing about A.J., Daniels, and all of the rest. The only talent that will be retained during the Hogan era will be the big guys. I believe that Rob Terry will become a Main Eventer under Hogan and that is a bad thing.  
 
I'd love to see all of the great talent that is sure to be shown the door in TNA wind up in the Reno Riggins and Jerry Jarrett promotion. If this group could get that talent and get a decent TV deal we might actually wind up with three promotions. And I'm thinking that the Riggins/Jarrett group would be worth watching.

I guess since we got Hogan in TNA we should be ready to welcome the following new wrestlers to the roster
 
Brutus Beefcake
The Nasty Boys
Hacksaw Jim
Jimmy Hart (that would be cool actually)
Dennis Rodman
shoot we may even get x pac and scott hall

I'm with Red on this one, Hogan will not have anything to do with the smaller guys in TNA, and its the smaller guys that make them different and exciting. Course they've been trying to kill the X division long before they signed Hogan. Hogan may pop the ratings his first few weeks but I really don't see what kind of positive effect he can have on teh company long term. Hogan does things for Hogan, not the fans and certainly not the company. He's not going to put over anyone for real except maybe guys who don't need the rub like Angle or Nash. The undying devotion to Hogan is ridiculous, since 98 he's had a fun little nostalgia run with the WWE and thats all he's done to even be remotely entertaining.
 
I mean how does TNA not realize that Joe, Styles, Beer Money those are the guys that are going to determine whether the company is a true success or not. Putting guys on tv that have been on tv for over a decade and putting them over the young guys that are going to make your company truly different. Just about everything we see going on in TNA we done better each Monday Night on RAW. Same thing with this HOgan nostalgia run, TNA is going to try it, but wont be nearly successful as Hogan's WWE nostalgia run in 03 or whenever it was. They should watch RAW and book their show to be as different as possible from that. They have to be an ALTERNATIVE to succeed in the business, not just a poorly executed version of WWE and this is a step in the wrong direction.
 
Peace

Plus now the more I hear HH talk I'm thinking he just may be what TNA needs as long as he doesn't become champion ten minutes after he walks in the door.
