TSC's Official WWE Network Thread

That shyt lasted about a month. Notice he wasn’t rocking that shyt when he came back again

Oh no doubt it's less praise of Hogan's popularity and yet another example of how dead WCW was when a Hogan nostalgia run in WWF areas was the most over thing in the company at that point. But he did keep the red and yellow until the reboot and New Blood angle. Although I'm not really sure what the deal was with the 4 month vacation between Halloween Havoc 1999 and February 2000 was. Russo related bullshyt no doubt.

I wouldn’t know cause as soon as I saw Hoegan coming out in the red and yellow acting like a face again I immediately changed to Raw and barely turned to Nitro again for a long time after that.

I think that period of time in 99 between the fingerpoke of doom and Russo’s arrival is probably the least I ever watched Nitro. I’m revisiting the PPVs from that era now and a lot of it is new to me.

I can’t believe they went full circle and retread basically the same main event angle they did at the advent of Nitro 4 years prior: face Sting vs. face Hoegan with tension about trusting Sting’s friend Luger smh. They were literally trying to recreate the past.

Hoegan came back in march 2000 and they did another hogan vs flair main event in a strap match at uncensored.

I just watched Fall Brawl 99 and Sting did what was supposed to be a heel turn against Hoegan while beating him for the belt, but the whole crowd started cheering when Sting hit him with the bat and made him tap to the scorpion Awkward.

There's definitely been worse themes, I can admit that. I just never cared for those dudes at all. When they first came to wwf I was like "fukk, THESE guys? "

If Vince had a choice between paying you a one time royalty fee of $22.76 or paying you nothing he would pay you nothing. Man's is allergic to royalties.
