The return of the “Monday Night Wars” (between TNA & the WWE) & TNA as a company with Eric Bischoff & Hulk Hogan at the helm:
“I have some feelings, and I have the utmost respect for Hulk Hogan, Eric Bischoff, & that entire crew at TNA, and I wish them the best of luck. But I think it’s very important that they don’t turn it into the Hulk Hogan show, don’t turn it into ‘Thunder In Paradise,’ don’t turn it into Eric Bischoff on camera running the show. I think they need to mix it up and take advantage of all the great talent they have at their disposal. So quite clearly, we need to put the egos aside and let’s talk business, and I know Vince McMahon, in the back of his mind, is going to be talking about business all the way.”
Whether TNA has enough (with the likes of Hogan, Bischoff, & “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair) to really compete with the WWE, like WCW had the credibility with “Mean” Gene when he jumped ship from the then-World Wrestling Federation to World Championship Wrestling:
“As long as Vince McMahon is sitting in that creative chair with his writers, I think it’s gonna be very tough if they depend on riding this Hulk Hogan pony into the sunset. I just don’t think now’s the time when your main even next week is Hulk Hogan vs. Ric Flair, and God knows I love them both. But we’re a little long in the tooth; they’re not Randy Orton, Ted DiBiase, they’re not John Cena, not even The Undertaker as current WWE stars are, and thus I think it’s gonna be an uphill battle…but what would you expect?”
