    hogan doesnt have the ratings power any more to draw on tv,so tna is banking on him to improve there show does not look good for tna.

  2. Miceman25 says:

    Considering they were hyping the hell out of a press conference everyone already saw, I can’t really be too surprised that the segment didn’t do better. When he actually gets into the Impact Zone and on the program, I’m sure things’ll be different.

    Thank you Miceman25! Finally – someone around here with some freakin common sense!

    Finally someone said it,jeeze it’s as if no one here realized that we all already knew he had signed with TNA.Once he shows up in the iMPACT! Zone people ratings will go up.

  5. jaybee baby says:

    ratings dropped jus because of a press conference wow there so damn lame dat’s why but once hulk hogan hits the ring boom throuhg the roof goes da ratings cause dat’s how good he is to bring ratings high in the numbers where it really counts so i’m sure tna wrestling will be number one soon then once dat starts finally go head to head with wwe monday night war games here we go again
