Niggas need to stop complaining about seeing Hogan wrestling when he aint even wrestled for about 3 years and that was only one match so really more like 5 maybe 8 years since he's really been in the ring heavy.

No shit he hasn't wrestled in years and the industry has been better for it. The guy can't even walk down a fucking ramp anymore with his plastic hips. Putting him in a ring would be a fucking disaster at this point. Especially when that company has a shitload of younger talent that goes hard regularly in the ring. He's perfect in the GM position; if they try to move him beyond that it would just be pretty stupid and do no one any real favors. Would just make the company look like a joke and kill all the goodwill they've earned since slowly improving their product this year.

Basically you're worried that they gonna make a Hogan vs Bully Ray match? Until it happens lets not even worry... many other things to be concerned with primarily THAT ARE happening.

 
No I'm not worried about anything because I don't think Dave Lagana or Bruce Prichard would be that stupid. You called it Hogan Vs. Bully and that's NOT what this is; it's a conflict of trust between an authority figure and a talent not a feud between active wrestlers. There's a big difference. Hogan Vs. Bully would be stupid. But again I don't think they'd ever go there it's just my opinion on such a thing. Hogan should never wrestle again. Same goes for Ric Flair but that's another story. Hogan couldn't put another match today even if he wanted to anyway considering how weathered his body is today.

Yeah Hogan has his place in the business in his old age like any other veteran. It's not grappling in the ring obviously but I have no problem with him as he is now being GM. It's the best way to use him while keeping him on TV. I mean the man is still the biggest name in the history of the business.That's exactly the type of person you could use to give your brand some exposure with casuals and give your homegrown talent a good rub.

Hell now that Flair is able to be back on WWE TV I think he should have a similar position over in that company as well. Guys over 50 have a purpose in this business too even if they could no longer actively wrestle. Whether it's managing new talent, being in an authority figure role or working on developmental training behind the scenes or being part of the booking committee. Especially if they're legends in the game. They could provide good advice & guidance to a lot of the up and coming talent and help mold them into future superstars due to their great knowledge and experience in the industry.

Part of the problem I actually have with Sting now a days is that he doesn't recognize that he's out of his prime as a wrestler. A sluggish and overweight Sting is not something I enjoy seeing as a lifelong fan of the guy and it takes a lot away from his recent matches & sells a lot of his opponents short. At least Hogan knows his role now that he's reached seasoned veteran status.

I disagree I was never into Abyss but Joseph Park is one of my favorite gimmicks this year. It proved to me that Chris Parks could actually act and has been one of the more entertaining things to watch on IMPACT this year. That segment made grin on Thursday.

Lawyer learning to wrestle and having some Tyler Durden type split personality >>>>>>>> being a low rent Kane + Mankind.
 
As a wrestling fan i dont care how old THE NATURE BOY RIC FLAIR is i still enjoy seeing him wrestle at his age and if Hogan want to wrestle i have no problem with it and will watch it and will like to see Hogan wrestle in the ring again.
