Would you like to see Hogan wrestle at BFG 13?

Only if they bring back Ultimate X.

I, for one, wanna see his patented springboard shooting star press to the outside.

Wait until he busts out his new Hogancanrana that he's been working on.

Honestly if I ever see Hogan wrestle again, I'd want it to be the "one last match" he has, at a Wrestlemania, followed by his imminent retirement from in ring work, to see out his days as an ambassador for the 'E. Love him, hate him, you cannot deny that the guy has given his body to professional wrestling. And for that if nothing else, I'd like to see him cement his legacy with Vince before finally stepping back.

I am and have always been a TNA fan, but Hulk should not be wrestling there.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD NO!!!!!!!

The fact that TNA even teased it last Thursday annoyed me. Hogan wanted to team up with Sting and Angle, but they told him about what the doctors have said. It screamed PLOT POINT to me. Come October, Hogan will say he HAS to fight Bully because he's TNA's last hope and it will f***ing suck!!

I don't think in Hogan's mind he even considers retirement. To me it seems like he's going to want to be the center of attention. Like Trips inserting himself into the Summer of Punk II. Just seem people who have influence will put themselves into the spotlight despite logic to the contrary. Like I said earlier, I don't want to see Hogan for the simple fact that Hulk will be 60 old years this August. Yes, he's an icon, but he's now an icon with multiple surgeries in a business where one slip up can do permanent damage.

This is going to go slightly off-topic, but follow me. In 1978, a 84 year old Mae West wrote and starred in the film, Sextette. As Nathan Rabin of the A.V. Club describes West's role in the film:

But it isn’t all fun and games for West. The ancient vixen’s sexuality isn’t just good for cracking up an easily amused press corps and sending the men of the universe into a carnal frenzy; it’s also a powerful tool for resolving global conflicts and promoting world peace. As explained in this clip, Uncle Sam has, for decades, dispatched West to help achieve foreign-policy objectives by having her seduce diplomats and politicians all over the world.

Now like West, Hogan is an icon and star. But at such an advanced age no one is really buying it anymore. It didn't work in Sextette and it doesn't work when two fifty plus year old men can hold off a gang of bikers. It's fine in small doses, but to have to deal with it week in and week out is going to become sad and annoying.

[Johnny D]

Yes.

Because I'm sadistic that way.

[Clash, Never a Meter Maid]

The only plausible scenario under which I'd want to see Hogan work another match is if he were wrestling as Mr. America again, and even then I wouldn't want it to be anything more strenuous than him coming down the aisle to clear Aces and Eights out the ring with a chair and posing.

Let's be fair now. Sextette worked because Crown International Pictures made it work. TNA or Impact Wrestling is no Crown International Pictures.
