This is something I pondered posting in the fantasy booking area multiple times but for whatever reason didn't. But after seeing the What If thread that popped up getting awesome responses, I decided to go ahead and give it a whirl. Pontiac Silverdome. 93,173 fans watch as The Hulkster motions that he is going to slam Andre the Giant! The place goes wild as Hogan reaches down, scoops up Andre and lifts him high into the air. But then something goes wrong..... Something in Hogan's back gives way. He collapses under the weight and crashes to the mat with The Giant on top of him. The referee has no choice but to count the pinfall, and Andre The Giant becomes the WWF Heavyweight Champion of the World. So that is your assignment..... Hulk Hogan suffers a fluke career ending injury on the biggest stage of them all. How does WWF recover? Who is the next great babyface? Does it sink the company? Does it impact Crockett or Gagne in any way? Looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with. I am always impressed with the level of knowledge and creativity on this board.

I don't know that I have ever heard him actually cut a wrestling promo, and I have watched a ton of his pre-WWE work. He did appear on Colt Cabana's podcast, and he was interesting enough and had a good story, but I know that doesn't necessarily translate.

Apparently the July Raw PPV is going to be called...... Great Balls of Fire

I miss people selling the atomic drop like they had to poop.

I haven't seen said show, but just wanted to point out that Excalibur's commentary makes everything better.

They need to figure out the Broken lawsuit quickly, cause Matt needs to be talking yesterday.

Why is Mickie James dressed as Tatanka?

So the Smackdown women who got moved off the pre-show and on to the main show due to fan backlash are going to get three minutes between Goldberg/Lesnar and Taker/Reigns. That'll teach "The Universe" to have a voice!

Oh, we are gonna follow that with Orton... Awesome!

If it helps justify the look and gimmick to you at all El-P, Tommy End/Aleister Black is actually a practicing satanist and grew up in a cult. He talked about it on Cabana's podcast a couple years ago.

Is this the best triple threat match ever?

Well, the entrance for Tommy End was awesome, but man it felt like Almas took way too much of the match and it went too long for the debut of the hot new guy. I don't know what the crowd was chanting for when Black took it, but they certainly seemed to have checked out of the match. and Yes, Nigel totally just said "here in Ring of Honor"

The tweets from JR over the last few days are heartbreaking.

The first 2 seasons of Lucha Underground hit Netflix today.

I know I have zero room to talk since I didn't vote, but how the fuck did Jade Chung not make that list?

Anthem spelled backwards is Meh,TNA

Drew Galloway has left the company, and it looks they are about to let the hottest act in the company follow him out the door, as supposedly The Hardys are unhappy with the offered contracts and are leaving.

If he is clean, I wouldn't be shocked to see Jake Roberts induct Rude based on the feud alone.

Eric Young may have the single most irritating voice in wrestling history.

I just have one question. If the narrative was that Billie and Peyton truly didn't care which of them won the title, so long as one of them won the title..... why the fuck weren't they trying to pin one another while Cross was out on the table and Asuka was out on the floor?

El-P I am excited for you to make it to the Black Lotus Triad vs Pentagon episode. It's been my favorite episode of the season so far, and I want to see if you enjoy it as much as I did.

"Cane Dewey" has already been mentioned, and it's a great promo, but if someone with better internet skills than me can find the "Uncle Willy" promo from ECW, I consider it the best thing Foley ever did

I'd call that a good choice Grimmas. I know there were matches involving three wrestlers that happened before that, but they were few and far between. The explosion of Triple Threat or 3 Way Dances in the 90's and into today all seem to stem from that one.

Was it just me or did it seem like Stephanie had to be extra bitchy and emasculating to everyone she came into contact with on this week's show to make up for the fact that Undertaker wasn't going to bow down and fear the McMahon. Sasha, Bayley, Foley, Rollins, Reigns, etc. We've had a heel authority figure for almost 20 straight years now, it's mind blowing.
