Hulk Hogan is back in WWE & hosting Wrestlemania 30

Hulk Hogan is back in WWE & hosting Wrestlemania 30 Hulk Hogan finally made his return to WWE in Green Bay  after being in TNA Impact Wrestling since 2010. Hulk Hogan is returning to WWE at the perfect time for the company and also for himself. Hulk Hogan finished up with TNA a few months ago and there were lots of rumours around whether Hogan would return or not, Hogan stated recently in an interview with wwe.com regarding his return "Over the last couple years, there’ll be texts between Vince and I. “Happy birthday brother!” on August 24th, his birthday. Christmas, Thanksgiving. We’ll touch base like that. And then I guess the word got out that I was jobless. I didn’t know what I was going to do. I was thinking of going back to playing music or something. On a Tuesday, I was officially out of work. And Friday morning I was drinking my coffee and I hear my cell phone. And it was Triple H. “Hey brother, just checking on you.” I’m like, “Hey, dude, I’m just contemp...

I'm not a Wrestling "expert" and nor do I proclaim to be one, this is my opinion on what I see as a fan so with that said lets take a look at Impact Wrestling is there time up in 2013? This is my 1st blog after a long time away due to an arm injury I have been unable to write any new blogs, but treatment has worked well so I'm back with a new blog.   Since I been on my blogging hiatus one thing has been bothering me a lot the continued downward trend in Impact Wrestling, the releases that have been made and the continued speculation around the company.   So far this year Impact Wrestling have released:   Alex Silva Bruce Pritchard (TNA Office Staff) Christian York Crimson Doc Dvon Dlo Brown (TNA Office Staff) Doug Williams Hulk Hogan Joey Ryan Kid Kash Mickie James Mad...

Impact Wrestling - Creative, Creating an Impact

Impact Wrestling - Creative, Creating an Impact May 2013 Welcome to my new blog looking at Impact Wrestling and the positives that TNA  and Impact Creative Team have made to Wrestling so far this year please read on and as always everything you read is my opinion and my opinion as a wrestling fan I'm not a wrestling "expert" and don't proclaim to be one so with that said enjoy!!   TNA Impact Wrestling owned by Dixie Carter made some changes in the early part of 2013. Impact Wrestling decided to do what in my opinion needed to be done for a long time they took the first step to change the Wrestling business and change the Model that the Wrestling business had been so successful on in the past.   Dixie Carter stated “The Pay-Per-View industry has changed so much in the last decade,” says TNA President Dixie Carter. “The traditional pay-per-view wrestling model needed to evolve and we believe this strategy will positively impact not only the ...

John Cena - Best Worker Ever......Brother

John Cena - Best Worker Ever......Brother   John Cena first appeared on our screens in 2002 in an Era of "Ruthless Aggression" and had his debut match against Kurt Angle on WWE Television since then Cena has gone through a few character changes and has gone from coloured wrestling shorts to a rapper making rhymes and telling the world that you cant see me, to telling us all about Hustle, Loyalty and Respect and giving us the message to Rise Above Hate.   Talking of Hate....Love or Hate him John Cena he is the poster boy for WWE. John Cena Works hard not just in the ring but out the ring as well, doing many appearances for Make a Wish Foundation, Meeting lots of children to doing lots of media interviews and he continues to push the WWE brand forward. The Kids love John Cena.   Personally I'm not a John Cena fan merely because Cena does not appeal to me in WWE TV Cena Entertains the fans and is a true star but as far as wrestling skill goes in this...

Give him the Ball - Mr Anderson...Anderson

Give him the Ball - Mr Anderson.....Anderson  Before I begin what I'll write here is my opinion as a wrestling fan, I'm not a wrestling expert and nor do I claim to be, This is merely my opinion from what I see on TV and from Interviews and Quotes of the subject themselves. This is just my opinion and thoughts so enjoy!!! Hello All I'm back again today with something that has been on my mind for the past few days as many of you who follow me on twitter (@jon422002) Will know I'm a massive Fan of Impact Wrestling Ken Anderson formally know as Mr Kennedy in WWE.  Mr Anderson has always been entertaining to me, I enjoy his attitude promos and what he says. Plus he has great Tshirts and I own lots of them!!  A man with all this skill I don't feel has been used to his potential since he arrived in TNA. He has had some great moments but I don't think TNA have even scratched the surface of the brilliant talent that they have. I Don't believe t...

Have TNA Wrestling Hit the Reset button?

The Big Red Reset Button TNA Wrestling Its been awhile but Iv decided to a new blog post. While we all enjoyed Wrestlemania 28 the matches with Rock vs Cena and HHH vs Undertaker and Raw the night after where the crowd was so into the product and the return of Brock Lesnar - Wrestling is certainly Buzzing again...but there is something which isn't buzzing in the wrestling industry and that's TNA Wrestling. While the WWE Is thriving and making Bigger money than they have ever made at at Wrestlemania (Thanks to The Rock) TNA seems in the Doldrums and stuck in this Revolving/Rehashing mode. I'm not here to knock the wrestlers in TNA they do a fantastic job and give us all the effort they have No matter what Situation they are put in and I respect them for all that they Do. These Guys and Girl Wrestle I don't,  I'm a fan of Wrestling and I'm giving my perspective and Thoughts on what I saw in front of me. I watched Impact Wrestling this week (for t...
