They're both immature and they both think they are bigger than the business

The fact of the matter, no matter what you say... the man still draws. He charges 250$ for an autograph and picture because he knows, no matter what, the people will still pay.
He's smart.

Hogan is the man. He used to be rather popular on here, but that all changed once he beat HBK at SummerSlam. Many people on here are still whining over that.

That's pretty cool. As for only drawing people that like the entertainment... good. The only thing that has ever drawn big money has been based around the entertainment element in pro wrestling. I remember an episode of the Pro-Wrestling Round Table where they said that people had to be talked into the arena. If nobody cares about the reason guys are fighting, then nobody will care about the match itself except for the die hards. Die hards won't fill a house.

* Oh, he's greedy and all he wants is money! Hmm... isn't that the whole point of America? The whole point of Business? Hulk Hogan is the most successful wrestler in the history of the sport. The reason is that he is a smart business man. He did not allow himself to be used by the companies he help build. Greedy? So what? Smart is more like it. Most wrestlers that complain about that WISH they could have what Hogan has and wish they could be even a fraction of what he meant for the sport. All this critisism about money is just jealousy. It truly is. ...jealousy? honestly, that's ridiculous. if people are going to be jealous of those who are much better off than them, then i think there's other people we could be pointing at other than hogan which we don't. hogan does the pretty little action of selling out, to the point where it's not about the hulkamaniacs but the hulkamillions for his matches...and for the record, i would definetly not want to be hulk hogan; i'd hate myself. so what?! this is not hulk hogan 24/7 tv, people don't watch wrestling just for goddam hulk hogan. the way you're talking about him he should've been in every main event ever had. it is not the job of the wrestling fan to decipher what the problems of promotions are, it's to be entertained. does hulk hogan entertain me? no! so why should i enjoy his involvement, when he doesn't add anything to the program but a rerun of the last 20 years. see, what i think the problem with hogan is he attracts back old fans that don't even like wrestling anymore...they just like the thoughts of their childhood growing up with that big orange man on their screen. but as soon as hogan goes, that crowd goes, which makes hogan valueless to the actual progression of the promotion.

For everyone that says Hogan won't put anyone over:
Can we say WCW 2000 Billy Kidman ? One of the darkest days in wrestling.
#2 is probably Warrior at WM6.

I'm a fan of Hogan, but him beating Orton at summerslam made no sense at all.
