Hulk Hogan injured in bloody Sydney brawl with Ric Flair and media

WRESTLER Hulk Hogan has been badly injured after a violent bloody
brawl broke out at The Hulkamania promotional press conference at Star
City today.

The press conference veered violently out of control today as Hogan
and ring rival Ric Flair let their animosity break into a full-scale
bloody brawl.

Sydney Central’s photographer Phil Rogers has his flash broken when
Flair threw a table off the stage and into the press gathering before
diving on photographers. See the photo of the Hulk.

Media were stunned as Hogan's head began bleeding profusely and
confusion broke out when the veteran wrestling star was unable to get
to his feet.

Journalists narrowly missed being struck with the table and
photographers ducked and weaved as Flair took off his trouser belt and
began to whip anyone within range.

The press conference began well with the stars of the tour speaking
professionally about their careers and the business.

Hogan was excited to be touring Australia for the first time.

He said promoters in the past had billed him to tour Australia without
his knowledge only to tell the fans that he could not make it.

The Hulkamania tour hits Sydney’s Acer Arena on November 28.

You think someone needs to explain to the Australian media about the
term "work"?

Not really. I think it's more that someone needs to explain to Hogan that
"working" at a press conference is a pretty damn stupid thing to do when
you're trying to create yourself as a legit entertainer and organization. I
mean, if this had been some sort of sketch, or even small set up within the
WWE, sure, but I think he just fucked up and didn't take into consideration
that Australians are still distracted by Steve Irwin's death.
