    Yep. They wouldn’t be having him involved otherwise.

    Yeah, he started in the late 1970s when he was in his early 20s.

    Best ring announcer ever. There are times when I will hear the name of a random town or city and imagine it in Howard’s voice.

    Its weird that under corporate HHH is listed at 1.65 million (talent) but under wrestlers it syas 2.5.

    Didnt think of this until now but does the independent contractor thing mean they don’t have to list salaries and bonuses in their sec filings? Another benefit to the E

    Brutus and Torrie Wilson will be inducted in the Hall of Fame. Brutus the fucking Beefcake.

    You mean Torrie the fucking Wilson.

    Riding Hogan’s coattails aside, Beefcake was a former tag titlist and a solid mid-to-upper card guy in the late 80s until he had the parasailing injury that could have killed him. Granted, his WCW run as the Butcher/Zodiac/Booty Man/Brother Bruti/Ed Leslie/Man With No Name/Did I Get Them All? pretty much sucked and he was only there because of Hogan. But he wasn’t too bad.

    Plus, they’ll likely get Hogan to introduce him to pave another way for Hogan to come back.

    Now, Wilson. Seriously, besides her strange storyline where her dad married Dawn Marie, what, besides pillow fights, did she ever do that was memorable?

    Oh I agree. Just riding on a Conrad joke.

    Torrie Wilson doesn’t belong.
