How Was Brooke Hogan?

[ratetankmark]

What'd you think of how her on-screen character was presented, did she actually come across as how she was meant to (which I'm guessing, TNA wanted her to be seen as a babyface I think) but if nothing else she did give us that glorious gif of her falling.

[El Cokehead del Knife Fight]

Terrible. Couldn't act and for the first couple of months didn't even appear in the same room as the knockouts. I mean literally didn't appear in the same room, it had some crazy terrible editing to make it look like she was talking to them.

[austinariesfan88]

We did get this cause of her

[joeiscool]

wasn't bad... Didn't set the world a blaze, and here acting was kinda just there/ I wish they had made her turn on hogan like they were foreshadowing for months... but what ever

[Sephiroth]

Slipped and fell onscreen. Never recovered.

[Jedi-El of Tomorrow]

A year after being in TNA she got flustered at people chanting for Eric Young.

I can't even imagine what she would have done if she got in front of some of the crowds Vickie Guerrero has, or dealt with the chants that Lita and Steph used to get.

Nepotism and if you claim otherwise, you're a f***ing liar.

Just plain terrible. There was no reason for her to be there other than Hulk pushing for it.

All made possible by that idiot in your Sig

Awful, she was like a WWE model signing from the past decade or so, she just wanted to be on TV and didn't want to do any of the hard work that would justify being given that. She didn't want to take bumps so that was off the table from day one thanks to who her father is, she didn't seem to want to be in front of a live crowd and she certainly didn't want to keep kayfabe if it would interfere with her personal life in any way. TNA wastes hours of TV time, making her a crucial part of the primary storyline in the company by having her 'marry' Bully Ray, she then goes and throws it out the window by announcing her engagement to the world to get some publicity for herself rather than keep it quiet for a few weeks, keep it between friends and family to let TNA wrap up the storyline in some way. Yeesh.

Quite honestly, I think she beats Garrett Bischoff, Wes Brisco, Erik Watts, David Flair and Lacey Von Erich for the title of worst offspring of a wrestler to have stepped foot in TNA.

Meh I think this is probably the biggest issue I have with a lot of wrestling fans. It's 2013 we know that wrestlers/managers/gm's are playing characters. Just because you know/hear/find out something about the person real life should not distract from your enjoyment of the storyline. It's like finding out that the actor who played steve urkel doesn't actually wear glasses... Who cares?

We know it's fake, however there's some suspension of belief required and in an era where wrestlers are using social media to work fans and keep storylines going between shows, there are some announcements that make a storyline unsustainable. Brooke announcing her engagement was one of them.

If the engagement wasn't a problem, they would have kept the storyline going but they knew it wouldn't work and she was gone not long after.

[________ has left the building]

A terrible idea in the long line of bad ideas during the Hogan/Bischoff era.

[Welfare Willis]

When you're best remembered for falling off the stage and breaking kayfabe by getting engaged in real life... you done f***** up girl.

[Jiren]

My thoughts on Brooke

[Professor Chaos]

She was great. If "Say what you want I'm comin thru" blared on RAW I'd jump out of my seat.

The problem was she went on twitter after Bully turned and said this is real, and my emotions are real. Then in the same account she announced she was engaged. She obviously is a twit, and belongs nowhere near the business.

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

She wasn't terribly offensively bad, but I'm not dying to see her again either.

[Deleted]

She was....

[Mozenrath]

She wasn't Claire Lynch levels of bad, but she was not good, either.
