Not that I'm gonna defend the guy, but how did he not make money?? Or do you mean all the publicity Hogan brought in back in the day?? Could you clarify?? He's rich enough getting the opportunity to bang the bosses' daughter. What guy wouldn't wanna be fucking the bosses daughter if she was a piece of ass??

Yeah, looking back, I was a bit unclear. My point was, yes Hogan held down the younger guys, but he was also THE FRANCHISE for the WWF during a time when they were making a ton of money. Whereas HHH holds down the younger guys (not sure that's the right way to put it) when the company is losing money and desperately needs someone new to carry the ball. Sure, HHH as an individual has tons of dinero, but the company he's supposed to be making money for has reported losses in the last 3 quarters (I think, I'm going on memory).

So yeah, by making money, I meant making money for the company as a whole, not just himself. Steve Austin was another guy who, during his run at the top, was quite the politician backstage. It just wasn't focused on as much because a)He was over, b)The company was strong, and c)He wasn't banging the bosses daughter (at least, I don't think he was).

I'm not really trying to defend Hogan here - just trying to point out the flaw in the HHH/Hogan comparison. Hogan was a draw, a star, made a ton of money for the company and for all the other wrestlers on the roster. HHH is a cancer, is not a draw and is not over, and is helping to run the company into the ground.
