Ok, I see why they made him WWF champion, but why don't they bring back the real Hulk Hogan and not Hollywood Hogan.

-Shave the pubic hair off of your face. Put on the yellow shorts and the red boots and hit his damn music, "I am a real American".

Hey they used that music when patterson and brisco were making fun of him.

I agree 100% with you. If he came out to that instead of the NWO bullshit the crowds at every arena would go nuts with him and it should be obvious to the WWF that is what the fans would like but with everything else lately they are dropping the ball.

Don't forget one of the funniest things in WWF history - THE SHOWSTER! Who could forget as Big Show came out to Hulk's old music, with trademark mustache and hair, yellow and red through and through. And who could forget JR's famous line - "Well, for the love of Hulk!" Awesome. I have the video clip on my computer. It cracks me up every time I see it.

Who knows why he isn't fully the Hulkster. I read somewhere they thought that his old gimmick was washed up or somethying, and that it seems retro. I would love to see him back though...

I also would love to see that... That red and yellow scarf just makes no sense at all. That American into music would have been great right after 9-11...

Having Hogan with the belt is a desperate attempt to relive the glory days of the wwf.. Austin had his run was great for the business but this guy is so stale now I can't watch him..same goes for undertaker,rock,hhh,and don't even mention that nwo bullshit. I rather watch a rerun of any ecw show or an old mid south tape then the current wwf crap....But then again what do I know.

yeah, that's it. It's the "gimmick" that's washed up. It has nothing at all to do with the fact that he's 48 fucking years old and an even worse wrestler now than he was 20 years ago.

I still find it humorous how he's gotten so over with the same fans that tooled on him mercilessly just a couple of years ago. fuckin marks.

Kid Rock is remaking 'Real American'.

Don't worry the WWF won't keep paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to license 'Voo Doo Child' every week.

I am surprised they didn't build up the return of the yellow and red more though. I remember the yellow and red return was a whole angle in WCW.

I agree....bring the damn Real American music back!!!!! Fans (including myself) would shit a brick if we heard that as he came down to the ring. They better do that for the next PPV. The Hendrix music is ok, but youd get an even bigger response from the fans if he came out to Real American.

You're kidding me right?? Have you not heard the pops that Hogan has gotten as soon as Jimi hids the loudspeakers? No matter what you think of him or his wrestling ability at this time, Hogan is OVER! Quite possibly more OVER than any other wrestler in the history of wrestling has been over at one point in time. Austin, Rock, they've gotten pops before, but christ, Hogan gets standing ovations. The fans love him again. It's fucking incredible I think that a couple of months ago people were saying, "oh shit, they are bringing back hogan again, he sucks" to now him being the biggest guy out there right now.



I'm only laughing on the outside
My smile is just skin deep
If you could see inside I'm really crying
You might join me for a weep.

Gimme a break man. Sure Hogan is over now, sure he's the most over guy in the WWF, sure his merchandise is the top selling stuff out right now, but he doesn't come close to outselling Austin or Rock in merchandise, PPV and house gates. Sure he's one of the biggest draws of all time, perhaps in terms of popular longevity he has everyone beat (unless you count Inoki in Japan), but it's not like the Rock wasn't getting monster pops back in '99, Austin in '98, Goldberg in '97.

EVERYONE knew Hogan was going to be big coming back, and EVERYONE knows that the comeback (an angle he has rehashed for perhaps the 5th time already) is always short-lived because the guy is an awful wrestler (not just now, but back in the eighties also).

The last few ratings for the week after Hogan's big title win after Backlash have actually gone DOWN from the previous week. Last Thursday's Smackdown with Hogan's run-in was one of the worst final quarter hours Smackdown has ever drawn. Last Monday's RAW rating went DOWN during Hogan's quarter hour when he had his speech about winning the title. Everyone is just milking the nostalgia until the other shoe drops. And don't mistake it for what it really is - NOSTALGIA. Those people standing up and cheering Hogan aren't cheering for him as much as they are cheering the memory of their childhoods. HOGAN IS A LIVING RELIC. And that nostalgia pop fades as evidenced countless times in WCW and even during Hogans returns in the WWF. That's when things start to go downhill really fast because people get sick of Hogan just as fast as they embrace him but Hogan still insists being in the main events of everything. Hulkamania is running wild? Yeah let's see you say that by the end of the summer.

I hope that's true, I was going to agree with you guys about everything on the red and yellow Hogan except for the music. IT would be seen as just cheesey 80s music, and you cant have your champion coming out to something so damn silly. A remix would be awesome.

A Hogan-Big Show feud with Show impersonating Hogan would be a great angle.

dude nobones, where did you hear kid rock was remaking real american, that would rock. anyway i think the whole hogan coming back is cool, he's gonna be gone for good before you know it and then it'll be the same cycle of champions over and over again like it always is(rock,austin,angle,hhh). i just wish the GOD foley would come back for a final run.except foley would consider it a sin now.

I was flipping through the channels this weekend, and low and behold I came accross Gremlins 2. I totally forgot that Hogan had a cameo in the middle of the film. It is like night and day, compared to the way he looks now with that look of tanned leather.

Will he be gone by the end of the summer? No fucking doubt in my mind he will. When the Rock comes back, it'll be back to business as usual with him, austin, HHH and Angle trading the belt back and forth. Vince is no dumbass, he's going to ride this hogan wave until it peters out and make as much as he can while doing it. I have no doubt about that whatsoever

Why the hell would they send a 1987 wrestler out with a 1987 song. It's bad enough he's even in the federation, don't come out to a song which won't make the bilboard top 9489481... Kid Rock is a good idea - but how many songs could the WWF ride on with him?

For all the people asking about Kid Rock remaking 'Real American' JR mentioned it in his Ross Report a few weeks ago.

yeah, but nobones, jr says that test is a hoss too...

i think hogan is getting the run now because vince knows he will die out sooner rather than later. and anyone who thinks rock is going to jump back into the title picture is fooling themselves. rocky is giong to go make a movie in july and be gone for a few months...he will come back in june and get "hurt" or "suspended" so he can go away for a while. that SHOULD give vince the opportunity to push new people and have hogan give them the rub on his way out the door...imagine what benoit would do to hogan? or the fun promos jericho would cut on hogan (we've only seen teh beginning of that)...austin will have his turn at hogan too, or that would just be a damn shame, it shouldn't be for a title, but tehy need to get in the ring together, just for the nostalgia of it...biggest of the 80's vs. the best of the 90's...
