Major TNA News: Hulk Hogan is going to work for TNA

Prowrestling.net has learned that Hulk Hogan is going to work for TNA Wrestling. He will make the announcement at the press conference in New York City moments from now.

Powell's POV: Details are still vague, but we have confirmed that Hogan has struck a deal with TNA. When asked what this means for the future of Vince Russo as head writer, the source responded, "To be determined,"
This could be interesting I know he does not have anything hardly to give in the ring but I will be interested in seeing what Hulk does in TNA.

Either Hogan is going to only be there for very shortly or Vince Russo is done.

If Vince Russo is gone, then praise the Lord and I may watch TNA again.

Looks like WCW revival to me...

Edit: And Russo is staying? Wonder how that is going to work with Bish and Hogan there...

Very interesting.

HULK HOGAN JOINS TNA WRESTLING
Legendary Wrestler and Pop Culture Icon Returns To The Ring With Fast-Rising Wrestling Organization

“Hulkamania” is back! The biggest name in professional wrestling history, Hulk Hogan, is joining Total Non-Stop Action Wrestling (TNA), the fastest rising wrestling organization in the world and home to one of cable television’s highest rated shows for young men, TNA iMPACT! The announcement was made today by TNA Wrestling in conjunction with Spike TV at a press conference held in New York City.

“Hulk Hogan is one of the world’s top pop culture icons and the biggest superstar in the history of professional wrestling. We are truly excited to welcome him into the TNA family,” said Dixie Carter, President of TNA Wrestling. “Our goal is to become the world’s biggest professional wrestling company. Hulk defines professional wrestling and we look forward to partnering with him in a variety of ways as we continue to grow TNA globally.”

“I’m thrilled to be jumping back into the world of professional wrestling,” said Hogan. “My fans have been asking me to return to the business for many years on a full time basis, but the timing or the opportunity has never been right until now. TNA Wrestling is a great company with an already excellent fan base, business and broadcast partner. I firmly believe now is the time for some change at TNA as they are positioned to jump to the next level in their development and I’m here to work with Dixie to help make that a reality.”

Through Hogan’s partnership with Bischoff Hervey Entertainment Television, the deal with TNA was negotiated by longtime Hogan colleague Eric Bischoff. Additionally, BHE TV has inked a first-look deal with TNA and will be working with the organization to develop new programming extensions of the TNA brand.

“Hulk Hogan adds yet another level of star power that positions TNA iMPACT as Spike TV’s version of ‘Must-See TV’ on Thursday nights,” said Kevin Kay, president of Spike.

Hogan most recently penned an autobiography with Mark Dagostino, “My Life Outside The Ring” with St. Martin’s Press

Wow, TNA is really starting to look like 90's WCW now. Getting all the older guys and former WWE guys.

It worked once. No reason it can't again.

Well, other than the fact that WCW sucked and is getting 50 year old washed up wrestlers to be their "big stars."

If it were just Bishoff and he were taking over for Russo, I would have been much more confident.

Re: Major TNA News: Hulk Hogan is going to work for TNA

LOL at this even being worth an announcement. It's even sadder about the current state of pro wrestling that anybody can get excited about this. Hogan can barely walk around the ring. He was a bad enough wrestler in his prime, nowadays the next PPV has to be him in a wheelchair match.

You're joking right? Please say you are.
