Phantom Lord Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Hogan turning down Dixie makes me concerned that he isn't desperate enough to make a handshake deal with Ian Rotten (yet). Hogan claims he was offered the role of Randy The Ram. I want to see Hogan vs. Necro Butcher. Question is between a TNA taping and a parking lot at the local Bowlorama, who has more paying customers. Dixie or Ian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Hogan, I think he'll be claiming he was the reason the Berlin Wall went down, and that he invented the internet, and claim he had the chance to get in on the ground floor of Apple next. His bullshit aside, he didn't have the moveset to pull of Randy. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nature Boy Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I do wonder if there's a pro wrestler who could have pulled off the Randy the Ram role. I can't think of any. Maybe Piper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSJ Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Wrong. Perhaps the most irritating thing about Hogan (well, to be fair there's lots of irritating things about Hogan), was the fact that he could work a hell of a good match when he wanted to. In my permanent collection I have Hogan vs. Muto and Hogan vs. Stan Hansen and both are **** and not just because of who he was matched with. Needless to say, both took place in Japan and the Japanese audience wasn't about to buy the usual Hogan crap so he had to step it up or be booed out of the building. He stepped it up in fine form, means he could do so any old time that he wanted to, but he could get away with his usual formula over here in the States, so that's what we got. It's become fashionable in recent years to shit on Bret Hart and Ric Flair for "the five moves of doom" and "Flair by the numbers", but the fact is both guys were craftsmen who took considerable pride in their work and gave people the best they had to offer regardless of whether they were at MSG or an old armory. Hogan just cared about doing the minimum for the maximum return and for that, screw him.

(BP) Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Jake could've played Randy the Ram if he hadn't become the wreck that largely inspired the movie, so that's sort of a Catch-22. I always wanted Rob Zombie to adapt The Nail comic into a movie, which would essentially be The Wrestler meets Race the Devil. I know DDP wanted to play the main character, but I'm not crazy about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyMax46 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 All this talk about how TNA should end reminds me of when Maffew asked about it. Which got one of the most amazing tweets ever. Dixie gets in a helicopter and Jarrett tells Dixie he left a goodbye message. As Dixie's helicopter takes off she looks down and sees a message laid out in stones that reads "$9.99" 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEN! Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I think Destination America is keeping Impact through the duration of their original 1-year deal, so January-ish. TV tapings in India in November is the prevailing rumor. Of course, last year there were rumors of taping Impact in Japan and that didn't happen. BFG is October 4. They've got house shows scheduled through October but no TV tapings scheduled to follow up the biggest show of their year. Wouldn't be surprised if they just do like last year and sideline everyone and air 'best of' shows to finish out the year. Gives TNA creative a good 2-3 months to plan their next piddling invasion angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
