Opinion Changes On Hogan, History of World Title DVD, Ratings

- The backstage opinion in TNA about signing Hulk Hogan has changed since the announcement was made. Many who saw it as a positive thing have changed their tune.

Hogan is said to be giving the impression that TNA is beneath him, and that he’s going to bring them in to the big time. He put his foot in his mouth when he said he was going to “teach the younger talent about art and theory of wresting.”

The most cynical see this as Hogan simply getting a payday to promote his book, since Vince won’t have him back.
