Low Ki WWE Update, Hogan Says He’ll Put Over Austin, WWE Kids News
- There have been rumors for months now that independent and international standout Low Ki (the former Senshi in TNA) is coming to the WWE.
Interestingly he was backstage at WWE development territory FCW last night during an event and ended up wrestling on the card. He recently dropped the New Japan Pro Wrestling’s IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship, which suggests he’s about to sign a deal.
- Hulk Hogan must be desperate, because on a recent episode of Bubba The Love Sponge, Jim Ross was interviewed and they discussed Hulk Hogan vs Steve Austin at Wrestlemania 25, the last big dream match. Ross said it wouldn’t happen and that Hogan wouldn’t put over Austin (he suggested an alternate ending involving Miz and Morrison). Then Hogan himself actually called in and said he’d be happy to put over Austin.
Considering Hogan is Bubba’s best friend, I smell a setup, as in they conspired the show so Hogan could let it be known that he’d job out on the big stage.
Whether Vince likes Hogan or not, he’ll do whats best for business, so let the rumors commence!
- From WWE.com:
“As reported on FolioMag.com Jan. 1, and featured in the cover story of the magazine’s January issue, WWE took a chance in the recent economic downturn by launching the new WWE Kids magazine in 2008 and it has turned out to be a profitable success. In 2009, WWE expects to increase the number of issues from last year’s bi-monthly releases to nine, as well as debut WWE Kids Mexico, WWE Kids Spain and four to six other international versions of the magazine.”




It would be cool to see Low Ki in WWE…
…especially when they change his name to Gunnar Walsh, make him grow a faux-hawk and a trendy beard, and force him to wrestle in silk pajamas before burying him at the bottom of ECW for three months and releasing him.
I’m betting on Hayden Squawker!
He might get buried, but then he may get a Evan Bourne push, who knows? There was talk of him being an evil Rey Mysterio or Mysterio’s successor, which could be awesome or totally lame depending on execution.
I hope they understand that Ki doesn’t actually wrestle like Mysterio.
im crossing my fingers for austin vs. hogan at Mania 25. and i hope they still have taker vs. michaels.. they need to dump this stupid jbl storyline.
You gotta give it to Hogan. Great set up, but he really needs to expect that he’s gonna be the heel in this one. With all the bad press around him & with this crap of a show that has his name in it. Who wants to see rodman beat up skreetch? I swear rodmans finisher should be a headbutt! LMAO!! Not just to his opponent. also to the ref. LMFAO!!
good stuff right there. Fot the younger kids the headbutt is one of there reasons he got suspended from the NBA. (he headbutted a ref.)

ARE YOU HIGH! This JBL story line is the best thing to happen on RAW sense the HBK vs Y2J feud!! Taker vs HBK would be a waste of time Shawn’s time just for the fact that you know he would lose. Best thing going for micheals right now is JBL vs HBK for the World Champion at WM25. Believe it!
Hogan must be nearly broke ass, if stated that he’d job to Austin, if they have a match at WM 25, But I don’t think it would be a clean finish, match goes to a DQ over a run in via The Rock lol. if only
As far as the HBK and JBL storyline goes, I don’t mind it, I’m interested in seeing were it ends at WM 25.
Something fresh is always good, RAW has been pretty ho hum of late,
I’m pleased that RKO kicked out Manu and Domino, they just don’t look right, for legacy. Question though, will Ted Dibase jr, come back to the fold?

NO, I’M NOT HIGH!!!! thx for the disrespectful comment smartass, and YES, this hbk jbl storyline sucks cause who can honestly try to have fun in believing a 20 year wrestling vet like michaels can be almost broke and need financial help. i guess every wrestler would be broke then. also look at the polls, many people like myself think this storyline makes no sense, not just me.
Shane Walker you are a pathetic mark. And Hogan’s show is getting good ratings and has been picked up for another year. As for Hogan being a heel because of the “bad press” you’re dumber then I realized.
I agree that Hogan would still get cheered like he used to, bad press or not, but there’s no need for calling somebody a pathetic mark, in fact it doesn’t even make sense.
As for Hogan’s show. I’d substitute “good” ratings for any ratings. If the network had an hour of gardening it’d still draw the same number.
