I hope so. Kid's got a HUGE attitude problem backstage and the WWE has done nothing to shut it down due to "needing" him because of all the injuries and things the last year or so. :-/
Yes doctor, I am sick.
Sick of those who are spineless.
Sick of those who feel self-entitled.
Sick of those who are hypocrites.
Yes doctor, an army is forming.
Yes doctor, there will be a war.
Yes doctor, there will be blood.....

My opinion is that Hogan is there to put over Orton at Summerslam, to add another credential to his "Legend Killer" resume or at least that's the vibe I'm getting. I like Orton's brash heel persona, but it just seems cliche when you compare it to when Rock was a heel, same with Austin and Trips. He's not a bad in-ring performer, but a lot of what he does is MMA-inspired holds, which is fine in a psychological sense, but too much of it can lead a smark like me to believe that his pacing is off and/or he still can't carry a match. Reminds me of One Night Stand when Orton faced Angle and Orton had Angle in a rest hold...while the ECW fans exclaimed, "YOU CAN'T WRESTLE!" :-b

Is there a more glaring indictment of the cruddy-ness of the current "stars" than the continued need for Hogan to come back?

Really, would John Cena have been anything more than a jobber 10-15 years ago?

Ah, that song reminds me of good times, good times, indeed, when I was a little tyke watching Hulkamania run wild. But these days, I can't stand Hogan unfortunately. You just can't compare him to the legendary Ric Flair, who could still put up a good match in the twilight of his career. Case in point: that hardcore slobberknocker vs. Big Show a couple of weeks back. WOW. :-°

Hulk is as slow and plodding like Undertaker, and in recent memory, the only two good matches both have had were against Shawn Michaels and Kurt Angle, respectively, both of which can carry a match like no other today.

No more legend re-treads. Please. Knowing Vince McMahon, he'll recruit Mach with Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and Hulk Hogan to reform the nWo to combat DX. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

If he jobs to Orton after refusing to job to HBK I will have to cut the first person I see.

On a side note. Anyone following the whole Hep. C scare on Smackdown?
