you guys need to understand there is a difference between "fake" and "scripted." those chairs and whatever the hell else they use are still hitting them in one way or another...most of the time that blood is real. they get over it and heal, but they do get fucked up...and hogan is an old dude now...
Well... Truth be told I could count on one hand the number of wrestling matches I've watched with Hogan in them.. It's not something I watch a lot of... he's just become one of those Iconic figures now.
i bet he got paid a HUGE amount to do a comeback, it'll likely be short, but just enough that alot of older fans to stopped watching will tune back in and maybe stay.
When you live a lifestyle like he does the money goes fast. You got to keep making millions to keep your load.
Huh? The guy is old. He doesn't party like a rockstar. He has retired multiple times but the owner of the WWE has always talked him into returning for a match or two. He has plenty of residual income not to mention a hit tv show. (Hogan Knows Best on vh1)
the guys worth close to 100 mil .. I'm sure they offer big money for him to do it or he would pass. plus the fact that I'm sure he loves the rush. on his show you can see him getting pumped with all types of drugs to keep the pain down. plus his son Nick is getting into it and I'm sure it helps both Nick and Brook for him to still be out there ..
he just moved onto miami beach and bought a 10 + million dollar home, apparently has a 5 million dollar condo too.
The guy is a complete toolbag and really should let it go, i am sure he has enough merchandising money and royalty money to last a lifetime, he's doing it because HE CANT LET GO OF HIS PAST.... the dude is fucking crazy.. ever see him get interviewed in certain places? he still talks about defeating andre the giant, that shit was like 15 years ago..
I saw his fucked up reality show, and in one episode it talks about how the guy can barely walk, he has two plastic knees and hips and the whole ordeal, he's doing it cause he's a fame whore. Why else would the guy wear the hulk headband out in public?
Maybe part of his publicity... to promote Hogan Knows Best at VH1.com. His opponents keeps on mentioning/badmouthing the said show on-air to trigger Hogan for a match

I've pondered this same question... not about Hogan but about Rick Flare. If Hogan is 60 then grampa FLare is pushing 70, if not older.
If a retirement home is calling anyone's name it's his. The Hulkster still has a few good years left in him.
Hogan is in his early 50s and Flair is 57, I believe. Flair is fucking nuts. Although he's an icon, Hogan is a shitty wrestler and protects himself immensely in his matches. Flair, on the other hand, is a legend and an incredible wrestler. And at nearly 60, he's still jumping off ladders, taking back body drops and blading to bleed like a stuck pig.
Hogan comes back for two reason. First, he comes back to garner publicity for himself and his daughter. Second, he comes back because he has it in his contract that any PPV match he wrestles be the main event and that he gets paid at least a million dollars for it.
I remember watching on his tv show they pay him it was 100,000 or 150,000 to wrestle a match . It wasnt a million but thats still a shit load of money for a couple of hours of work.

That's for a regular TV match. For a PPV, he gets a million. He used to get a lot more back wrestling was incredibly popular in the mid-to-late 90s. But nowadays, it's at least 2-3 times as much as what the regular main eventers make for a PPV match.
