Hogan Will Be Booking TNA?

When news first hit that Hogan signed with TNA Wrestling the assumption among most of us was that he would be wrestling but that is not necessarily the case. Hogan is still recovering from the back surgery he had early this year, in fact at this point it's not even certain that Hogan will ever wrestle again.  Hogan has confirmed that he will be using his upcoming tour of Australia to determine if his body is up to a return to the ring. So what exactly will Hogan be doing in TNA? Well, according to Hogan's long time friend and radio host Bubba the Love Sponge he will be booking. Bubba has been refuring to Hogan as "the boss" via his twitter page and when asked what specific role Hogan will play in TNA, Bubba said quote, "he is the Booker. Period. Saw it in his contract". He also added that "Terry and Eric won't make the same mistakes that they made at WCW."

Of course it should be noted that although Bubba the Love Sponge is friends with Hogan he was not in the room when the negotiations were going down. And even if Hogan does get involved in the booking he would not be the only one in charge of booking the show. But with that said I think letting Hogan have any kind of control in the booking a TNA is a big mistake for the company. I understand having a name like his associated with your company is a really big deal for TNA but at what cost.
