So if Hogan really is gone, should the six sided ring be used again? As I recall he was the one who decided it should be done away with, and seeing as how so many other of his creative suggestions turned out...
But really I'm not sure it would be a good idea. The six sided ring is pretty much an icon of how great TNA was just several years ago, but considering the state of their roster it would really be pointless to try to just recapture the past. The best thing now is to try to use what they have to move themselves in a whole different direction, and bringing back the six sided ring just seems kind of pointless for that. Besides which, if all the buzz about the state of their finances is true I doubt they could afford a new ring and set to match.

No way, if Hulk made one good contribution to TNA is was getting rid of that stupid gimmicky wrestling ring.

If they debut a new face authority figure to go against Dixie then having them bring back the 6 sided ring is a genius move

I only want the 6 sided ring back if Hulk is coming back so that he can feud with said ring.

Some wrestlers have said that the 6 sided ring was harder/stiffer than the 4 sided one.

I think they should fix a few other things before "fixing" the ring.

Eh, it doesn't make sense to bring back on a permanent basis. Everybody's so used to working in the standard four-sided ring now that going back to the six-sided one would probably trip alot of guys up.

I'm kinda torn. Part of me wants it back because it was cool looking and distinctive. But I also know several wrestlers complained that it was very hard and caused injuries.

I liked the 6-sided ring, as it presented a visual change in how things were done. And the Division X wrestlers seemed to put on a show that matched that change quite nicely.
With a regular ring, the perception seems more like business as usual.
