I don't believe this for a second, honestly.

I would bet decent money that he'll be back.

If he's still there then he'll help AJ beat Bully at BFG. Wraps up his story with Bully, puts belt on AJ, puts Hogan in spotlight.
If that happens I'll sob until Lockdown

It won't stick - did you see that I Quit promo - it was only like 2mins long!
If Hulk was really quitting TNA we'd get a 15min long rambling promo about this and that brother and Hogan could have taken TNA to the next level blah blah blah.

All righty, so we pick up where we left off in late 2009, yes? Time to get Desmond Wolfe out of retirement and rehire Alex Shelley so we can reform the Motor City Machine Guns... I know the feud is stale as all hell, but I'm down for another Styles vs Daniels vs Joe main event. When something is that awesome it never becomes stale. Another AJ/Daniels/Joe main event would be sweet as hell. They teased it for Destination X 2011 but then decided to just go AJ/Daniels instead. If AJ wins the title at BFG I would have absolutely no problems with his first PPV title defence being against Joe and Daniels.

I will hold off on celebrating until I know the Orange Menace is gone once and for all.

I think it is clear at this point that both parties do not need each other. I think the WWE would gladly take Hulk back in some capacity given their love for nostalgia, and TNA has to pretty much start fresh with their impending location change and financial situation.

Hogan was certainly a big part of TNA's problems but he's not the only problem. As much as I love Sting, he really needs to be the next who goes -- he's wrestling in a T-shirt, costing the company too much money & is well past his used-by expiry date. I love the guy, but unless he's in serious financial difficulty, he needs to retire in peace. I just wish he'd shave that stupid ass thing off his chin.

Can't celebrate, just waiting for Hogan to suddenly Hulk Up, throw the three punchs and re-sign with TNA.

Hopefully that last segment was a work because it would be stupid of TNA to have Hulk Hogan leave as a face.
Doing something like that is risky because people generally gravitate towards positivity and are likely to follow Hulk Hogan wherever he goes.
The best way to have done this is to have had Hulk Hogan be the snob that he knows he can be.

Right before he originally signed I was starting to get excited about TNA, like they were getting ready to be viable competition for WWE. Then he happened. I hope this is true, and that they're not so far gone from his damage that they can get back to where they were right before he signed on.

I'm going to hold off on the celebration until Hogan appears on WWE TV, that's the only way we can be certain that he's truly gone and isn't still in negotiations with TNA.

Bleacher report did an interesting story last week about why Hogan is likely leveraging WWE against TNA and has his bets hedged. Too early to celebrate. The company has tried to work the internet a lot in the Hogan/Bischoff era and I'm not convinced that it isn't happening again.
My hope is, they draw down a bit to regroup. Film in one place but still tour. Specificlly tour in a power base area. Heel Dixie does not have traction yet, but basically just got put over as a force by the biggest star in wrestling history. Maybe she gets her shit together on screen after more time to grow into it.

I have doubts he's really gone. But for now, we dance.

Because this needs it's own thread. I don't care if this might be premature but I wanna assume it's already true. We've been waiting for this moment for years. Hogan is out of TNA!!!! Now let the festivities begin! that gif makes me sad because it reminds me of a time when TNA was actually good.

Like a sliding scale ever downward. What was bitched about then is seen as the "good times" now because what's going on now is just so much worse than what was happening then. I may have just created a tear in the S/T continuum with that last sentence.

John Pollock said this on Review an Impact, that Dixie begging Hogan to stay will be the cover of the "Death of TNA" book.
On the plus side, it is morning again in TNA, they got rid of Hogan, and now they can slowly start back up again. TNA still gets some decent ratings.
