Bumping or no bumping, I honestly don't wanna see Hogan hobbling around, a shell of his former self. As a huge fan since I was years old in 1986, it just makes me sad to see him barely able to do anything. A promo segment? Sure. I agree. As much as probably no one wants to hear it, the window for an official retirement match has passed. Hogan let that slip away by continuing to go all these years despite his body deteriorating over time. A 30 years of WM Battle Royal isn't a bad idea, but Hogan not being able to bump means he HAS to win, which basically makes the match all about him and takes a bit of the excitement out of seeing anyone else. Thing is, at this stage any Mania match involving Hogan has to end with him winning. I'd rather see 20 or so legends, preferably some that we haven't seen in a while, than see him involved in a match with a couple of guys on the current roster.

I don't think we necessarily need a retirement match or anything from Hogan, but I would like to see him have some role or other at the show. If nothing else, have him stand in somebody's corner against the Real Americans or something. Hell, have a segment where he gets them to realize what being a Real American really means and they turn face by dumping Zeb then pose with him or something. The Real Americans being Hogan's "Team Angle" would get all of the buys.

Gotta give Hogan credit. It would be the greatest political move ever to get himself in a battle royal for this show, because with that bad back, he gets to utilize the Iron Sheik clause.
You have to win the match if there's no way you can live through elimination.

Yes, a trophy.
Big Show wins, he gets a trophy. Hulk comes out to congratulate him. Big Show feels Hogan is a legend and he deserves a Lifetime Achievement trophy. Hogan comes out next week...the trophy is half the size of Big Show's. Big Show steals Hogan's spotlight, Hogan walks out.
All we need is Piper's Pit, Jesse Ventura & Roddy Piper...it's 1987 all over again, brother!

......he headlined 9 WrestleManias, and we want to put him in a pre-show battle royal at the 30th anniversary show??

Why do so many people want a main event player like Brodus Clay in a pre show battle royale.
