This is on Hogan's DVD set. In the thing prior to the match, Hogan said he thought it turned out really good, but then it was just a typical Hogan match. Not even one of his better ones.

Oh your wrong. HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN facing Curt Hennig with Bobby "The Brain" Heenan at ringside. It was something I never thought I'd see again. And they all so easily slipped right back into their roles. I though it was 1990 all over again. I loved it. As far as HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN saying the match came out well, he was reffering to the fact that being it was a last minute decision with nothing booked, and having just come off knee surgery, it had the potential to be a disaster. But it came out quite well and as I said above it felt like we went back in time. That's what I liked about the XWF. The wrestlers -- established and new -- all worked so well together. It felt like it could have happened right now. When I watched the DVD, it didn't feel like I was watching a recording, it felt like Hennig, Road Warrior Hawk etc... were all alive again and that everyone was in their prime. And Roddy Piper, he was himself again. Not the guy who rambles on for 5 minutes building to a punchline that never seems to come. He was coconut over the head Piper. You weren't even sure if he was heal of face. He was just Rowdy Roddy Piper! I love that DVD. I really wish the XWF would have taken off. It had everything. |

I liked the XWF set, I got it at a comic convention and Jimmy Hart was there, so i actually bought it from him and he signed it for me. He's a really nice guy.

Here my thoughts in the XWF. It did have potential. I mean the talent was there. I mean they have most of the same guy that started the X Division there. They had star power. Now the key was having a TV deal which they never got. If they did, the would had a better start then TNA because they had more names.
They had Curt Henning, They had Roddy Piper, LOD, The Nasty Boys, and if had a TV deal maybe Hogan would have stayed. Then they had a good start for guys who could been the younger talented Main Eventers. Like Vampiro who was still good at the time. Some guys were not so great.
The later days on the roster they had other talent. I mean Rey Mysterio was also there. Just think if they got a TV deal with XWF could have had. Stuff like Styles vs. Mysterio. That would been amazing.
CEO Sable was weird and I didn't care for. But Commissioner Piper was good.
