The NWA title which goes way way back b4 your comic book character hogan got a belt has much more history and is WAY more prestigious. Hogan appealed to kiddies, Flair appealed to what every man wants to be, a ladies man, the champ, the man .TO me Hogan has made wrestling the joke it is, gimmicks and ways to sell cheap stuff to kids with money from their parents.

But at least we had good music guys like the Crue. Johnson your wrong, Wrestling has been popular before Hogan read some wrestling history. Its just that they had smaller target markets, while Vince targeted all of them and made one big following.

Im not gonna say i want to see him wrestle now, i agree he is well past it and has no business getting back in the ring the couple of times a year he does (same goes for Flair by the by) BUT he demands respect and should have it. Wrestling was a JOKE in the 80s.... you laughed at my Kids and Old Ladies comment... sorry BROTHER but thats the truth - thats who watched Wrestling until Wrestlemania and Hogan came along - it started to get cool. and cos fans were still pretty fickle about how "real" wrestling was and the scripting and stuff, everyone followed Wrestling as Vince McMahon wanted them too. Cheer on that good guy and eat your vitamins, boo those big bad guys like Earthquake and Andre! Wrestling was simpler then, and the repetitive moves and good vs evil matches were popular.... wrestling fans have grown up since then, and knowing how scripted it all is people like Bret Hart and HBK came along as the bad guys you could cheer and ofcourse the ultimate one Austin. Moves have got more technical and so have the storylines. Different eras, i dont think Hogan belongs in this era true - but to say he should never have wrestled he has no talent is rubbish. He had talent and charisma he did what people wanted to see. and i have no doubt that Hogan put wrestling into the mainstream - obviously thanks inpart to Vince.

Diamond....your right Flair has been and will always be better than hogan, in my book. Flair worked his tail off all those years, he went out night after night giving his all, he could go 1 hour matches, Hogan never went more than 15 minutes in his life unless he was in a tag match and then the other guy would do all the work and Hogan would come in with the stupid leg drop and take the pin. ozzygreybeard….I was around back then before hogan and things were just fine and agree Hogan needs to get on with his life and quit trying to steal the spot light from the wrestlers of today…he made HBK job to him and now he comes back out of no where and wants to get in the spot light again at the PPV.

I think its Jbob, whatever his name is saying Sting and Flair were smaller. Flair is bigger and better than Hulk as well as guys like Steamboat. Vince ruled the 80s by doing everything bigger and better, taking elements from other sports and adding them to wrestling. But when they say its the only revolution, then it becomes annoying. The 90s were a even bigger revolution, but every decade has its stars and promoters. You could say the guy who invented the World title, really revolutionised the business.
