Yeah, and he didn't have the over-the-top patriotism that Hogan did. Dusty's patriotism when feuding with Ivan Koloff was a lot more toned down

HBK definitely toned down the attitude when he came back, though he definitely brought out the 1997 HBK at times and in this case I can definitely understand why, another time was when he felt Cena was no selling his leg during the wm23 main event

The only things that are telling me it's a work is that they haven't gone into detail on the injury, and that there's no timeline for recovery. Big injuries tend to get those across pretty quickly.
If it is a work it's a very believable one considering how Seth landed on his leg. But I have my doubts they'd have a worked injury on SNME. Those shows tend to prioritize showcasing the talent over continuing stories.
I think it's a shoot injury, but if it isn't it'll be a pleasant surprise.

If these guys think Hogan is in hell for racism, wait until they hear about what God thinks of homosexuality.Crosspost:

Anyways, the GCW events for Summer Slam weekend look booty. Maybe two matches I kind of want to see, the rest of the card is all literally whos.

They could have pushed Mr. Perfect or Rick Rude, both guys would have given Hogan great matches, would have made him look good going out, and they could have had return matches with Hogan if it didn't work out because they were both naturally good heels and tweeners.
it wasn't that he sucked at giving promos, he sucked at giving these pre-shot, bland babyface promos. The minute you put a hot mic in Bret's hands he could talk, especially when he had a person to aim his voice at. Remember when the Hart Foundation was getting booed in the US? He could talk, and he was good at it. I think he's the first person to curse on live RAW as well when he stood in the ring and openly trashed Vince, outed him as the fuckin BOSS when fans thought he was just a commentator, and he did this before Austin did it.
Man, I hate when you people talk about Nash like he was the reason he flopped as champ. They had him on TV wearing a fucking Santa hat singing Merry Christmas. He was a good heel, and they tried to turn him in to this shitty, white meat babyface nobody wanted at the time. They wanted big daddy cool, they didn't want Nash singing Merry fucking Christmas.
And Vince, being too far behind with the times, ignored the fans WANT for Sid as champ. Let him be a fucking heel champ. It sold like hot cakes with Super Star Billy Graham because a big, inhuman looking heel sells tickets. Sid was intense, he looked like he could beat the shit out of anyone, he had everything Vince needed AND he fucked off every summer to play softball. So Vince could have used the winter and spring to get his next babyface ready to take the strap off Sid so he could go play ball, then bring him back in the winter if the guy sucks and repeat.
Hall was a complete mess of a human, still failing to get help for the justified shooting of a man who tried to kill him. He was not champion material.
That shits so retarded. I wish people would have responded with, "Well without whitey you wouldn't have had guitars, pianos, reed instruments, because your society had none."
He WAS SCSA 1.0. He was the one who outed Vince as the owner live on Raw before Austin was even a thing in the WWF. Hell, was he still in WCW or was he the ringmaster when that happened?
Too injured. Too old. Too dangerous.

Let’s go over what you lied about because you don’t actually follow these other companies you just use them to talk good about AEW
- Forbidden Door is during G1. No it’s not, but you don’t actually follow the other companies you just pretend to like them because you’re an AEW fan. FD is a week after.
- most of the guys who jumped are on split contracts. No they’re not one guy is. Takeshita doesn’t count as he wasn’t NJPW to begin with. I’m going to go over all former and current Bushiroad talent. Kevin Knight. He’s the one on a split contract Jay isn’t. Will isn’t. Okada isn’t. Shibata isn’t. Thekla isn’t. Mina isn’t. We don’t know Syuri’s case presumably she and Ishii and Gabe are just allowed to do AEW but are still contracted their respective companies. Aussie Open are not on split contracts. Lance Archer was never on a split contract nor was Trent. I suppose Rocky counts as split but he’s a special case because he’s running shit in like three companies. If you watch previous forbidden door buildups it’s very obvious the guys Tony likes most are Will Jay Okada Shibata Tana. He got all but one and not on split contracts like you tried to lie about. Basically, you heard about the one recent split contract of Kevin Knight, and for some reason crafted a narrative in your head that that must mean that all of these people are on split contracts they’re not.
I will admit that I probably shouldn’t have included CLL in my original gripe because FD has always been about NJPW x AEW but that doesn’t take away from the fact that CMLL was doing fine pre AEW, did AEW help? Yeah for now, did they NEED(I figure I’ll put something needlessly in caps just to fit in with your shitty style of writing) AEW? No.

Most Of the G-1 competitors need two weeks or more off to get the damage from the G-1 grind to heal.

I'm talking in a financial sense. Bret was good for business and a lot of contemporary wrestling owes a ton to what he provided for in-ring stuff.
He wasn't gonna be a money making machine like Hogan or Austin were, though.
As for your question, wasn't that around the time he got screwed at the 1997 Rumble and leading into his heel turn? Austin was definitely around at that point.

Late to the party and everyones said their piece and I'll say mine, part of why Hogan was glad to leave AWA was because Verne wanted a piece of Hogans Japan action, before there was Hulkamania Hogan was Ichiban, he was huge in Japan like on the level of Stan Hansen, Brody, Andre and Superfly. I think he would've stuck around New Japan being a big draw and coming back and as you said doing stints in Mid Atlantic or JCP and we may have gotten a feud with him and Billy Graham at that time who knows and if wrestling didn't pan out he could always try his hand at Hollywood he could've been like Nathan Jones, action movies could always use a giant roided up guy for the hero to fight.

It's the Canadian accent. That thing just kills any intimidation. When Vince got punched, he should have told Bret they could use this. The money printer was there but Vince was too arrogant to see it. He thought HE was the good guy in this feud, like a fuckin mark. Luckily he finally realized it after his stupid promo got booed to hell and back.

I agree with this, if they just stuck with Bret as the guy in 1994 the company wouldn’t have been in dire straits financially for the following 2 years, Backlund still could have won at Survivor Series with Bret winning it back at wrestlemania, would have certainly been better then the horrid shit we got in our timeline with that farce of an I quit match at WrestleMania 11 that was an insult to Both mens in-ring talent and a foot player main eventing against Bam Bam Bigelow, the New Generation could have been so much better, they weren’t going to beat Hoganverse WCW, but they would have withered the initial formation of the nWo far better if Vince wasn’t retarded in the mid 90s

He and trent deserve one another. People like them are the reason the IWC will always be shitty.
What do you know? A degenerate site filled with creeps that a normal society wouldn't associate with. These people should look at a mirror for how ugly they look outside and inside.
Goldust will always be more entertaining than a schizo troon pretending to wrestle.

Cena just turned face and got thunderous cheers the entire time.
