A little surprise in the last sentence

Hulk Hogan made another one of his infamous calls into the Bubba the Love Sponge show this morning. According to Hogan he got word that Vince McMahon was "freaked out" about the upcoming Memphis show.

Bubba then tuned in and said that he tried to get 4 $60 tickets in the "largest section" and couldn't, Bubba said the ticket sales were "doing great". Bubba was very excited and said that he is now officially on the card and will wrestle, he then went on to talk about his salary negotiations for the show.

Bubba said he told the promoter a certain price, the promoter then said he could do half that, Bubba said he only agreed to the deal because he wanted to be on the show with Hogan. Bubba said that he will be on the Howard Stern show next week to promote the Memphis show, Bubba also said that Howard 100 reporters will be covering the show. Hogan said that he will be smoking weed today because it was 4/20.

I don't think sales are actually going that well....

..
As of today the 4/27 Memphis show with Hulk Hogan vs. Paul Wight had sold 1,500 tickets for $70,875. Also, the Memphis TV show rating dropped to a 1.8 rating, the lowest of this year. The show lost viewers every quarter, and is way down from the regular rating of 2.8.

.. I dunno.. It's probably not bad, but I think it's a ten thousand seat arena.

That is a good strong indicator, but we'll see. Between everyone who reads this thread, one of us remember to post the tally after the show.

I'm not into wrestling but I do listen to the Bubba The Love Sponge show daily and dude is known for putting shit over. So it probably isn't selling like fire.
