I wonder what TNA has to say...and Hogan apparently debuts tonight.

It will only be a video segment considering iMPACT has already been taped.

Unless of course they've done something else to add into the show.

RobyD · 10-29-2009, 05:57 PM

Unless they tape two more weeks of show tonight and add Hogan in, which I doubt. It'll probably be just a video segment. Regardless, this sickened me when I first heard the news, and I was stuck in the idea that that the only way that I would continue to watch is on the off chance he stayed out of the ring.

I am looking at the bright side of this now though. I would prefer for him to have a match with Sting or have a match with Steiner or even Angle or someone that makes sense, as the main event of the Pay-Per-View, especially this one, which is being directly pushed to the internet crowd with AJ/Joe/Daniels 2, MCMG/British and Nigel/Angle. If they had a casual fan like PPV buyrate because of Hulk Hogan, then it would bring a lot of attention to these younger guys and TNA as a whole.

Also, I wouldn't mind Hogan, if he were willing to participate, putting over AJ Styles.

I can already sense the beginning of the end.

The Pope · 10-29-2009, 06:40 PM

Beginning of the end maybe, but tonight viewers will tune in for TNA.

dxanman · 10-29-2009, 06:43 PM

I'm tuning in... but it's not for Hogan.

Slave To Petey · 10-29-2009, 06:49 PM

Well I know I won't be watching unless MCMG is on it. I might just tape it though while I watch the Hockey game. All I can say is Hogan in TNA is a real channel changer for me.

My guess is that they announce a new show tonight. If they do that I hope they make it one hour, because I really dont think they could support 2 additional hours of original product every week. I think it'd be cool though if they had a one hour show on Monday's at 8:00. That would probably do good ratings and people would watch it while waiting for Raw to start.

I'm tired of people saying this....Whether or not Hogan and Bischoff's entry and rumoured creative is true it can't get much worse for TNA than where they were before.

Their PPVs were unbearably bad, their weekly shows should have been called "A Tribute To WCW 2000" as opposed to "iMpact", and their core million or so viewers that they usually got were so disenfranchised with the product that TNA couldn't sell a PPV or a T-Shirt if purchasing said item would cure cancer.

TNA with Angle, Foley, Sting, Booker, Nash, and Steiner were getting beat in the ratings by a show who's top 6 stars were Christian, William Regal, Goldust, Yoshi Tatsu, Zack Ryder, and Sheamus.

Acting like this move all of a sudden damned TNA is laughable.

Edit: Also, regarding them possibly getting a second show and the lack of roster depth to support it. It wouldn't surprise me one bit to see Hogan and Bischoff work out a deal to bring in the Hogan Tour Roster in order to cross promote and boost the roster.

That's fine, and I agree with you that the ratings could be better. And, I haven't seen any of their PPVs, but based off what's been said, I'm truly not missing anything. However, I'm still entitled to my opinion. So, until I see what Hogan's gonna do, that opinion will stand.
