Hulk Hogan in Pain, Flair Enjoying Working as a Heel and More

- TNA and Spike TV have decided to air the iMPACT replay on Thursday nights at 9PM after all.

- Ric Flair is telling people he is having more fun working in TNA than he has had in years because he loves being a top heel. Flair still thinks he can have one more world-class match, with Kurt Angle.

- Hulk Hogan was in tremendous pain after last week’s TNA iMPACT and the tapings. He was icing his back for a long time. Hogan has been protecting his back in the ring and only did a few bumps but still is hurting. Right now Hogan’s not expected to wrestle anytime soon but that could always change.

    Ric Flair vs. Kurt Angle?

    Ric would have to put a 110% in the match for it to live up to a hype. If there is one.

    Old man Hogan should just give it up. He should admit that he can’t keep up with Flair.

    If Hogan is in pain, what the well would become of Bret at Mania?

    Fact is Bret is in worse condition that Hogan, so for people to be pissing all over Hogan and not saying one thing bout Bret is pure hypocricy. Anyway gotta give it up for Hogan though. Let’s see how much bumps Bret takes at Mania?

    Anyway Hogan this is a sign to never jump in the damn ring again. Flair on the other hand…..damn this guy could get rolled over with a tractor and still get up!

    I think a Flair/Angle match would be great and the match itself would be much better considering it’s in TNA rather then WWE. Flair isn’t as good as he used to be but he can still wrestle very well on the mat. Plus, his more then willing to take insane bumps, regardless of his age – look at his ladder matches with Edge.

    I would have figured Flair would save his best for a match against Sting.

    Just one last time, I’d like to see Flair elbow drop, or put the boots to his jacket. Just one last time.

    I think anyone who wants to see Flair vs Angle is out of their mind. All this match would cause is Angle to look like a wimp and not do anything exciting in the ring to avoid hurting Flair. Face it there isn’t any young talent that you could put Flair with and actually sell it.

    @edgehead15

    The reason no one is talking about bret and their talking about hogan is because the WWE is not revolving everything around Bret like their doing with Hogan you would think this is back in the 80′ or 90′s or something the way Hogan is being pushed as the main guy or something? ive heard more about hogan & flair then another wrestler on TNA, WWE in the other hand its more about their new talent not their old Sheamus for one wining the WWE tile and now facing Triple H, Drew Mcintyre is getting a massive push and many other hell the WWE has a tv show WWE NXT dedicated to ne Talent TNA just feels like the Hogan show rather then then the up and coming talent

    Flair and Sting should have a retirement match, where they both retire of course.
