Hulk Hogan: MMA is spanking the WWE pay-per-view business, brother

Hulk-hogan_medium

Props: MMA Fighting

Quoteworthy:

"MMA is spanking the WWE as far as the pay-per-view stuff. Dana White and the UFC has done an amazing job, and it's all about timing. The UFC was ready to close its doors, they were losing a ton of money, they were going under, they were getting ready to go out of business, and then they did a reality show called The Ultimate Fighter. They developed the characters; they made people care about the fighters; the people found out who the fighters were; they breathed life into the fighters. That's what I want to do with TNA. They've got the best talent in the world down there, but no one is breathing life into the characters. I have learned a ton of stuff from MMA, watching them. They remind me of TNA. Ton of talent, but no one has put that Frankenstein, shock the monster, breath some life into the characters. I learned a ton from MMA, and I get along great with Dana White -- he's awesome."

The immortal Hulk Hogan flexes his industry insight after studying the success of the UFC and how it managed to turn a sinking ship into a pay-per-view powerhouse. There have been several parallels between Zuffa and Hogan's previous place of employment and the irresistible force plans on using that strategy to build new business over in TNA Wrestling. Is "Hollywood" going to be able to replicate the success of the UFC? Or did Dana White and the Fertittas catch lightning in a bottle?

The big question is will Hogan corner Bobby Lashley in MMA

and will SF copromote with TNA wrasstlers.

PPV does well because of gambling. When your outcomes are scripted you lose many buyers who don’t care about 59.99 because of the 1k in bets riding on an outcome.

Wrassling is dying. Im more than happy with the vintage shows. I can rewatch the Ultimate Warrior vs Papa Shongo but I can’t get through even 3 mins of either wrasslin brand.

hulk is dumb

He talks about how bad mma is smoking wwe but in reality he is only saying this because he is in tna and tna’s best ratings ever are still like 3 times less then what the WWE gets every week….And I would love to see how much lower tna’s ppv buys are then wwe’s

by GOLDIGGAH on Dec 29, 2009 2:24 PM EST up reply actions  

Agreed

WWE’s biggest ever PPV had over a million buys, TNA’s was about 25,000. They’re a much smaller promotion and have been losing money for years, WWE is a global multi million corporation. There is no comparison between their success.

Hogan is an arsehole, at one time he called MMA fake and said that it would all blow over, now because he’s with TNA and they’re on the same channel as the UFC and one of their top stars is an MMA fighter he’s suddenly kissing up to the sport. Fuck that old orange faced roid taking prick.

"Anderson Silva is the best fighter on the planet...any Anderson Silva fight that is on, people should be buying that PPV, not because he’s my fighter but you know what, he to me is like the Muhammad Ali of MMA...the UFC has been around since 1993, nobody (else) has 10 consecutive wins in the UFC. Anderson has had 10 fights in the UFC, only 1 has ever gone to a decision."

Hogan's a shithouse who stole his name off a comic and his character off Superstar Billy Graham

He never had any athletic ability and if it wasn’t for Vince’s masterful promoting then he’d never have been a success. Bret Hart has more talent and class than Hogan could ever dream of having.

Stone Cold Truth

UFC is spanking WWE in PPVs. But guess what? WWE RAW scores 6, 7 million viewers easy on a weekly basis. When a rare, televised UFC show scores even half that, it’s considered a major success.

Bottom line is, people who like WWE, will stick to WWE. Those guys don’t care for the missionary style.

Sad state of affairs....

when MMA is so comparable to pro wrestling.

I’m sure you Dana lovers will disagree, but I hate what he and the UFC have done to make their product so pro wrestling comparable.

Just fight.

by introvert on Dec 29, 2009 2:21 PM EST reply actions  

The only comparison that Hogan was making is that wrestling doesn’t work without people caring about the characters, and Dana used TUF to allow people to get to know a great crop of new fighters. In wrestling you have a good guy and a bad guy and some sort of dramatic event that causes them to fight each other. Nobody would watch a couple 300-pound guys in tights wrestle each other if there was no reason for them to wrestle. How many more millions of people are watching UFC now because they got to know Chuck and Randy (coaches on TUF 1) and Forrest, Diego, Leben, Koscheck, Florian, Swick, etc?

Anyone else in their late 20's-early 30's kind of sad....

When I was a kid Hulk was such an icon, now seeing/listening to him is almost painful. I still like the guy, but he is what….late 50’s early 60’s now. Probably close to being flat broke, trying to hang on to an image that is 25 years old. Sad to me kind of, wish he had expanded his horizons a little back in the day, little to late now it seems.

You could say the same for reality TV

Almost every reality TV show is fake and yet people LOVE it. I mean MTV’s made an entire programming schedule of nothing but reality crapiness. Also, for awhile there about 3-4 years ago I actually liked pro wrestling(this was also before I discovered mmma and the UFC) and in all honesty it was something that was interesting to watch on TV. I would never pay for it but it was the best thing on at Monday night that wasn’t football.

by sarah- on Dec 29, 2009 3:23 PM EST up reply actions  

Shoulda known you liked kung fu movies from ur pic lol

Yes I love Kung fu movies(yes kung fu hustle is deff a fav) but kung fu movies are pretty fake yet who can deny the awesome choreography? Which is why I loved wresting. I remembered watching a tag team match where a guy got double german suplexed! Sure, it was fake as Pam Anderson’s boobs but it was easy to just turn my brain off and watch. Also, more than brock has a wrestling or other previous martial arts background that is in pro wrestling. They can just make more money pro wresting and honestly, who could blame them? But back on topic people LOVE Hulk Hogan not only for his awesome moves in the wring but for his charasmatic personality. Which is why he’s one of the people, like Mr. T, that people will at least give a chance to watch.

Hogan was a master of getting people to cheer without doing anything

Thanks to excellent promotion/blatant lies and being able to master ring psychology he became a big star despite not being a great talker (yelling a lot and repeating brother doesn’t make a good promo) or wrestler (he only had about 5 moves) he is one of the top stars in the history of the business.

I was a fan back in the day when it was filled with great talkers like Stone Cold and the Rock were around as well as great wrestlers like Bret Hart and entertaining characters like the Godfather. Now it’s become a kid’s show and all of the top stars have gone, I still watch the occasional show when one of my favourites returns but I’d much rather watch real fights these days, especially now that MMAsts and boxers are more entertaining characters than the bland wrestlers in WWE. No Hollywood reject writes corny lines for the likes of Brock, Semtex or Hardy, the crazy things that they say comes from the heart.

Bret won't wrestle again, I think you're right about the settlement and after having a stroke he could die if he tried to wrestle again

I’ll just be happy seeing him cut promos again and get a proper chance to say goodbye. I’m not expecting him to do a Ricky Steamboat, a simple goodbye to the fans will be good enough for me.

I grew up on the Von Erichs and Freebirds here in Dallas and will defend wrestling. It is a male soap opera. You have characters, story lines, conflicts.

Im dont want to come off that way cause im not...

I just hate those guys that carry something they like in their pocket and act like only they can like it. Plus I dont like when MMA fans act stupid about other sports like Boxing or Pro Wrestling (Yes Fake) and act like MMA is something more special.

Thats all im saying.

His son is a murderer

Crashed his car while drunk. Left his friend like a veggy for life. Because of his dad he only did like 6th months in some luxury pen…

In order to be a murderer someone would actually have to die.

John Graziano is effectively dead, he'll be a vegetable and need care for the rest of his life

What’s worse about the whole thing is the disgusting thing that those arsehole Hogans were saying after the incident. Hulk claimed that it happened because Graziano was a bad person and was being punished by god, Linda claimed that she was more of a mum to John than his own mother and Nick went on about using his time in prison as an excuse for a “realality” (honestly that’s how the idiot pronounced it) show called “The New Nick”. They are all disgusting people.

"Anderson Silva is the best fighter on the planet...any Anderson Silva fight that is on, people should be buying that PPV, not because he’s my fighter but you know what, he to me is like the Muhammad Ali of MMA...the UFC has been around since 1993, nobody (else) has 10 consecutive wins in the UFC. Anderson has had 10 fights in the UFC, only 1 has ever gone to a decision."

the only reason i started watching mma

was because chris benoit killed himself…he was my favorite wrestler and great family man…the sport just hasnt been the same since the passing of the rabid wolverine…greatest moment in wwe history was seeing benoit tap out triple h in the crippler crossface at wrestlemania 20 to become the wwe world champion…

but once the crippler died i was like…shit now what…then i was like…fuck it, i’ll give this shitty ass mma thing a gander…

jake shields is the highest ranked fighter to have never fought i highly ranked fighter...i cant wait till hendo signs to strikeforce and murders that talentless waste of flesh..

i know i should have put an "a" instead of an "i" between the words "fought" and "highly" above..but i aint changing it, cause thats how gangsta i am

and brock coming over from the wwe was like christmas

i got to have the wwe and mma combined…

the crippler would have owned the lhw division if he came over…he would have choked out machida the same way he choked out his wife and son….

cause thats how the rabid wolverine use to roll

nah mean?

you guys arent aware of the effects of the crippler crossface

that shit will put blood in your stool and a hole in your colon..machida karate doesnt teach a counter for it…not even brock could kick out of it…

did u not read what i posted above? benoit won wrestlemania 20 with it….triple h is like 270 and he tapped out to it….benoit killed his wife and kid with it….and then hung himself….you may think wrestling’s fake…but shit wasnt fake when the coroner was called to the benoit household to pick up the crumpled bodies of his family…

he would have dominated the lhw division….

my dream fight would have to be Brock Lesnar vs Jake Shields...and before the fight theres a video of jake slapping brock's wife...then id like to see shields try to gay porn a win over brock using his butt sex merry-go-round tactics...the massacre that would take place would be the greatest thing ever televised...every limb jake has would look like corey hill's leg...god i hate jake shields

Chris Benoit was an evil piece of shit

Anyone who kills their family is a sick bastard, the guy was an evil coward and had some serious mental issues. Benoit wouldn’t have lasted 5s in a real fight and wouldn’t have ever passed a drugs test.

You know I've come back into this post at least half a dozen times to...

See if you retracted this stupid senseless, hurt-full, retarded comment. Out of all the posts i’ve read this one has to rub me up the wrong way the most. It’s not even funny and how you could even crack such a meaning-less joke like this about a tragedy involving the murder of an innocent women and her son, just proves that you are the lowest of the low and would not be worth pissing on if you were on fire. I hope that your father(if your mother knows who he is), doesn’t tie your mothers hands and legs behind her back and proceed to strangle her and then drug you and strangle you. Now grow up and get a life you immature, senseless scum-bag.

forums are for disgruntled wise-asses

reading some of the comments on here make me want to puke. hogan knows entertainment and marketing better than anyone and it’s awesome to see UFC and dana getting some of the recognition they deserve. WHAT YA GONNA DO, WHEN DANA WHITE AND THE UFC COME AFTER YOU!

So long as wrestling is fake why care about it? If I ever found out MMA was scripted I’d lose interest in it as well.
