Well Hogan, that's a step up from TNA at least.

As much as I dislike Hogan, I can see this actually working.

I am amped up for bound for glory 2010. I cannot wait for this years line up.
I have to be honest, Bound for glory has replaced wrestlemania as the superbowl of wrestling.

You know life has taken a turn when Hulk Hogan is looking to "be as big as ... Willy Mays."

great video to promote TNA. I will watch Bound for Glory!!!
Posted By: Fuji (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 11:49 AM
I wish Hogan the best of luck as a pitch man.
Hulkster has done so much for TNA and has truly made TNA wrestling the number 1 promotion in America and Canada!

I'd actually think Hogan would be awesome in a 'Billy Mays' type role.
Posted By: Andrew Barbarash (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 11:58 AM
Man, Bound for Glory is going to be awesome.
I willl watch. But I am biase...I love TNA!

u know, Hogan as a "TV pitch man" just might work lol Though as a former wrestling fan of his, it would probably be a bit sad to see.
Posted By: Guest#0537 (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 12:00 PM
I live in BC. Trust me when I tell you this, ECCW sucks!!!
They showed up at a TNA house show last year here trying to promote their crap saying how much better they are than TNA then they went backstage and begged for tryouts. Pathetic!

Doesn't Hogan already have a job as a pitchman for TNA?
Posted By: Vinnie Ru (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 12:48 PM
Hogan's already started commercials. Recently saw him on some furniture rental ads.

That blue mat is a twisted ankle waiting to happen.
Posted By: demOcratic (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 01:04 PM
so literally, the HUCKSTER???!?!
Posted By: oh brother (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 01:18 PM
So, Hulk wants to die due to overdose?
Posted By: Comment Board Poster (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 01:26 PM
Say your Prayers and take your Viagra! Brother!

I hope this goes well for Hogan and I hope he will quit TNA.
In all seriousness I think Hulk is perfect for this gig.
Posted By: Guest#1081 (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 02:11 PM
Given what we know about TV pitchmen, Hogan as a pitchman makes perfect sense. And he can make a ton of money doing it.
Posted By: Trooft (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 02:28 PM
Hopefully his new career works out better than his TNA career, what a flop that's been
Posted By: Bill (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 02:34 PM
I have to admit that Hogan's a smart guy. he's already setting himself up for when TNA doesn't renew his contract.
Posted By: mogamer (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 02:39 PM
They should have stopped with the awesome Kayfabe: the Movie.
Posted By: God Nightshade (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 03:34 PM
I hope the documentary is released on DVD at some point. I'd like to buy a copy to watch.
Posted By: FrankBama (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 03:52 PM
He doesn't promote TNA. What makes him think he can promote anything else? The saggy orange bitch doesn't even pull his weight on the Rent-A-Center commercial.

I love the South Park reference, BROTHER.

Extreme Canadian Championship Wrestling? When will this shit end? How many cheesy indy promotions are out there with "extreme" in the name? It's not original. It's not cool anymore. It stopped being interesting in 1998. It's embarrassing. Nothing original was seen in that trailer. They even have their own Jeff Hardy complete with wife beater and swanton bomb. Pitiful.
Posted By: tired of it! (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 07:10 PM
So his TNA career is officially over?

+1

What the fuck? Well, Hulk Hogan does have a personaity which sort of lends itself to doing infomercias, inspite of being one of the greatest wrestling icons of the 80s.
Posted By: Dwayne (Guest) on July 27, 2010 at 09:00 PM
Hopefully, Hogan won't come across nearly as creepy as that Sham Wow guy.

"Bound for Glory has replaced Wrestlemania as the Superbowl of Wrestling"
Tell me you are joking. Bound for Glory will never take Wrestlemania's title as Superbowl of Wrestling. You don't hear about cities all around the country or every country wanting to get Bound for Glory in their area do you?
Bottom line, Wrestlemania will always be the Superbowl of Wrestling and it is something TNA will never take away from the WWE.
