McMahon REALLY DOES want to "destroy Hulkamania".
Scott Kuli
Untertaker...wanted to see Hogan beat Triple H, wanted to see Hogan
beat Brock Lesnar...but what happened? None of the above, and why?
Because Hogan had the audacity to quit working for Vince McMahon when
he was still making him money in 1993, that's why. Now McMahon has
probably given it to him in writing that if he plays by McMahons'
gameplan, he'll have a run with the championship, but with this
condition; it can only happen after he "loses" at Wrestlemania. That's
how McMahon thinks he's gonna "kill Hulkamania", and he believes no
one will be able to take Hogan seriously afterward. He's an asshole,
and he really does want what he wants more than to do what the fans
want.

budget is these days.

So it had nothing to do with Hogan rapidly approaching 50 and thus having
a limited shelf life, while Trip and Lesnar are part of the present and
future of the industry? If they couldn't get over Hogan, how was Vince
supposed to make them look like a threat to anyone next year?
I'd also offer Rock as a counterexample, but then Rock always makes his
opponent look good.

I think Hogan's already had his glory reign with the belt- the time
rapidly approaches for him to hang the boots up for one last time. Hogan
is becoming as irrelevant as Bob Backlund and Bruno Sammartino (or Mario
Milano, perhaps, who can still pop a crowd of smarks).

It's good to be (married to the) boss. <G>

Well your credibility went out the door...Hogan beat HHH.
On another note, Vince was on Kilborn the other night...talking
openly, and not in character, about everything including the upcoming
match. As well as saying they have already buried the hatchet about
Hogan leaving in 1993.
Whether you believe him or not, is irrelevant.
The match is an ANGLE...come back to reality. Hogan may...MAY...be
involved in the HW angles, especially if Kurt goes under the knife.
But a run? No. I see Hogan winning, to continue his career...maybe
even getting into what Taker is doing now, and become a
Manager/Mentor/Tag Partner for a young guy and then retiring after
WM20.
The shear twiddle tht McMahon WANTS to kill a moneymaker like
Hulkamania...is just silly. Did you NOT see how many Hogan fans were
at SD!? Did you not see the Dolls and T-Shirts and merchandise on
EVERYONE!?
Reality check...

flair, I thought at the pay per view when they came out they would need a
stairlift or wheel chair due to the distance.
We need more young talent and not these old farts.

there is still a fan out there who identifies with the legend that defines
grapplers like Hogan and Flair. Hogan was never a great worker but his aura
is undeniable. Flair, on the other hand, was an outstanding worker who
wants to continue contributing whatever he can. Thankfully he's rarely in
the ring anymore; I think his role as a heel manager/advisor to HHH and the
rest of Evolution (when Batista and Orton come back from injuries) is ideal
for him in his current state.

and I could never stand him. I hated that stupid routine of after taking a
pounding he would start to tremble and shake his head and then with his
finger say no. Then came the stupid leg drop and the end of the match. I
wish he would just fade into oblivion.

So Vince should book for 10% of his fanbase, is what you're saying?

The salary of folks like D-Lo Brown, Raven, Justin Credible and
others, I'd gather...

Considering what ratings are these days, I'd say he's nearing that
figure in reality... :p

Hogan draws a crowd and is fun to watch but thats about it. Having Hulk
beat Lesnar would be the biggest false event to ever happen since Doink The
Clown Beat Mabel of Men On A Mission lol
