I'm a total Hulkamaniac. He has the mystique, and it's fun to cheer for him for the same reason it's fun to see Poison in concert these days, but I agree, he's getting a wee bit cheesy. I liked it when he first turned face and had that, "Hey I'm a humble old guy who can't believe it either, brudder!" look on his face. He was wearing jeans and didn't look like a giant loaded hotdog. He wasn't hulking up. He was talking normally. Now, he's way too cartoonish. I say end it now before it gets really bad.
For the record, Triple Ruxpin is cracking me up.

Hogan/Flair the match was pretty fun, but during the UT beatdown segment later on, I couldn't help but feel it was like watching your best friend's dad get beaten up. No matter how cool an ass-kicking it might be (not that it was anything spectacular), it's still kind of uncomfortable. There's just something odd about good ol' Hulk Hogan, wearing his crazy old guy motorcycle gear, getting smashed with a tire iron backstage and clutching his heart.
UT doing that Michael Jackson-esque "Hoooo!" when he hit him with the tire iron the second time was great.

Man, I was loving the "old guy in black t-shirt and jeans who *used* to play a cartoon character on TV, and is just amazed and humbled that the fans even remember him, much less love him" thing he was doing for the week between WM and the return of the red-and-yellow. I wish they'd kept that and brought out the red-and-yellow just for his final match. Oh well, I've gotten used to red-and-yellow Hogan, although he makes my eyes hurt.

Hogan still can pop a crowd, like Monday in his match against Flair. So I guess the sheep still love him. He's good for laughs, like getting dragged by the Undertaker and his bit with the motorcycle last week. I do like him waggling his finger though.

You just NOW realized you DON'T like Hogan?!?! What's next? The Canadians wake up, realize BOTH Hogan and Goldberg suck and the closest they'll ever get to the Stanley Cup is having their pictures taken by it down in Denver?!?! You poor soul...YOU POOR IGNORANT SOUL!!!! Hogan eats chode, that's all you need to know. Oh and Chris Benoit will prove that after Hogan no sells a German suplex from him.

So you're saying he could offer them a better and more worthwhile experience than say... Hugh Morris? :) I think Austin could do well in opening himself up a wrestling school of some sort in the near future if he really wanted to.
