Lol just got done watching this on YT. Obviously I can't post it here but if you search "Orton Knows Best" it's right there. Watch with delight as Randy Orton kicks Nick Hogan right in the gut and throws him out of the ring, makes out with Brooke Hogan and then RKO's the Hulkster himself right into the mat. Sadly, it wasn't the real Nick Hogan.  The match at Summerslam 2006 was disappointing to me. Whilst I enjoyed the match itself (Orton carried a crippled Hogan to a watch-able contest) the fact that Hogan won in the first place ticked me off. He didn't need the win, the win could have really re-started Orton's Legend Killer gimmick with force and how could a crippled 50 odd year old beat a (at the time) 26 year old who was (and still is today) in his prime. Hogan had just re-injured his knee at the time as well which the WWE made no secret of so having Orton lose to him really was a joke IMO. |

Hogan never loses. Ever. This angle could've been good start to finish if they just let Orton get the win. I actually really enjoyed this feud to be honest. Plus, it gave me Larry Sweeney on WWE TV.

Do the WWE use the same guy every time they need someone to impersonate Hogan? I remember him from the Hogan v McMahon feud.

I still see him at every wrestling show I go to, whether it be WWE, TNA, or indy. |

They should get that Black Hogan to start doing it from now on.

I was there. And that spot where the match was over the first time before the ref realized that Hogan had kicked out or w/e, was botched.
Hogan didn't kick out. His shoulder never came off the mat; Orton pinned him clean.
But the match was restarted anyway.

I have the DVD and it looks ok.  |

Oh that was what happened? I always thought that he has "kicked out" or whatever, I must not have had a good view then, lol. That makes so much more sense. EDIT: Just saw on youtube. Can't believe I didn't notice that. I've really believed the ref botched a nearfall for over 4 years now. |

That may not have happened, but I remember at Summerslam 05, HBK had Hogan in some submission and Hogan started quickly hitting his hand on the mat (I guess to sell the pain), and the announcers didn't really know how to explain that he was basically tapping out... |

That match was another reason why Summerslam '06 blew. Great build-up, but the outcome was just wrong.

I actually liked Summerslam 2006 but the booking for Cena/Edge didn't make much sense to me that month or the next. I would have had Cena go over in Boston and Edge in Toronto, not have them both lose in their hometown. Why would you book that?!

Since this storyline got Larry Sweeney on WWE TV, it's okay in my book.

Was he the guy who played Nick Hogan? I'm only taking this educated guess because I Google Imaged "Larry Sweeney" and it looks like the guy who played Nick.
