Hulk Hogan Offered Reality 'Dating' Show?, Bret Turned Down For HOF?
Tonight's WWE Smackdown and ECW tapings take place from Austin, Texas. The advertised main event of the show features a 6-man tag match with John Cena, Triple H, and Jeff Hardy teaming together to face Randy Orton, Edge, and Matt Hardy. This could be a dark match.
In an interview with celebrity gossip site PopEater.com, Hulk Hogan says he was recently approached by VH1 to star in a reality TV dating show similar to Bret Michaels' "Rock of Love" and Flavor Flav's "Flavor of Love." Although both shows have drawn big ratings for the cable channel, Hogan, who split with wife Linda back in 2007, said, "I passed on it. That's not my deal brother. It'd have to be 'Hulk Hogan: 55 and Still Alive on Viagra' or something."
As noted earlier, Bret Hart did a radio interview over the weekend and addressed two recent news items we reported about the Hall of Famer. In addition to whether or not he'd induct Shawn Michaels (link), Bret also confirmed the report that Dory Funk Jr. asked him to induct the Funk's into the WWE Hall of Fame. Although he was willing to induct them, he said Vince had already picked Dusty Rhodes for that job. He also said he had spoken to Vince about putting out another DVD on his career.
