He's not just a TV personality. He has creative control.
And speaking of WWE rejects, what about Angle, Rhyno, 3D, Foley, Lashley, Hemme, Stevie, Jarrett, Nash, Raven, Steiner, Sting... ? All those people were in WWE before TNA and they were there before Hogan as well. It's not like he's really doing that much differently, he's just doing it all at once.
I'm not here trying to say that TNA is the future. You guys know up untill a minute ago I couldn't watch more than a half hour of that show without turning it off. All I'm saying is that the TNA bashing is hilarious when before the Hogan move, everyone was complaining about how stale wrestling has been because nobody wants to go up against WWE.
Then when something is actually working, instead of looking at the current trend, everyone wants to look a year into the future as if the wrestling business even works like that, and say TNA won't last. I just don't see someone with any sense looking at positive increases in revenue and saying to themselves "This is bad news".
