Bully Ray Talks Hulk Hogan Angle ,Where It Was Headed, TNA Using
Hogan too much

TNA star Bully Ray was a guest on Chris Jericho's podcast Talk
Is Jericho, and among the topics they discussed was Hulk Hogan's
time with TNA Wrestling. You can hear their full audio interview
at this link.
The former WWE and ECW superstar was put into a program
involving the wrestling juggernaut, where Bully Ray was not only
a top heel in the company, but was also involved with Hogan's
daughter Brooke in the story lines.
Bully Ray spoke about his experience alongside the legend.
"It was awesome, and it was the main story line along with the
Aces & Eights," said Ray. "Those two stories kind of ran
together. To be in the ring with him and work with him was cool,
because listen…at the end of the day, he's Hulk Hogan. He's the
Babe Ruth of our industry and being in the ring with him is
cool."
The TNA wrestler also shed some light on the expectations for
the two to square off in the ring.
"The end was result was we were supposed to have a match,"
explains Ray. "Me and Hulk had talked about this match on
several different occasions and he felt totally comfortable with
me because he knew I could custom tailor the match to exactly
what he needed. It just didn't happen. It didn't happen because
of his physical reasons, and also business reasons within TNA."
Ray also said that when he was talking on the mic, there weren't
many guys who were able to raise his game like Hogan had. He
also said whenever he was out there with Hogan, and Sting too,
they were the highest-rated segments of TNA Impact.
Jericho asked if Hogan's departure left a big hole for TNA.
"No, I don't think it's caused a big hole at all," said Ray. "He
split, that's it, he's gone. He was on TV with TNA probably more
than he should have been, and he was talking up a lot of prime
real estate where younger guys could have been. If I was writing
a show, Hulk would have been in one story and he would be on the
show one time, so we can feature him, give the people their Babe
Ruth and that's it."

I am with bully on TNA using hogan to much on TV he took up
20-30 mins a show what was not good because he never got in to a
fight or to set up a match etc . Now hogan has left TNA it has
ran better on TV less promos from a person who can not back it
up .
