As a follow-up on an earlier report of Kevin Nash and Scott Hall meeting with Vince McMahon and production assists at Titan Towers today, it appears as though Hulk Hogan as well is at the meeting.
-- Sources claim unless a major problem persists in contract negotiations, Hulk Hogan is a sure-in to sign the dotted lines on his WWF contract today. Kevin Nash and Scott Hall officially signed their contracts on January 18th.
-- A lot of consideration will go into Hulk Hogan's portion of the nWo storyline at today's meeting. A lot of consideration has been given to debuting Nash and Hall as early as Monday's RAW with hints and clues building to an anticipated return of Hulk Hogan to the nWo at No Way Out (which yes has the same initials as nWo).
-- The only other option being thrown around is to have Vince McMahon continue to build-up the nWo's return to help him "destroy the WWF" which could be drawn out to the February 17th No Way Out pay-per view.

The whole of WWF is getting filled with WCW and ECW stars these days.

Hulk Hogan is a legend, hence he is coming back to the WWF - I think Hogan will get a huge pop when he comes back. You do realise that NWO could become as big as it did in WCW! Rumour has it that X-Pac will also be joining NWO (he was syxx in WCW). With Curt Hennig also in contract with the WWF you have to speculate if he will join the NWO again. There is bound to be a heel turn for one of the top wrestlers (probably one of the two involved in wrestlemania) so that NWO will have a top star and not a load of old dudes. Another man who I have heard rumours of coming to the WWF is Macho Man - Oh yeah brother - damn retro stars!

Yeah, that's true. When I become a wrestler (which I damn sure better do!) my career will be about 10 - 15 years long. Then I'll just pack it in and settle for me as 10 time WWF champion!

Hogan was a great wrestler back in his time. One of the best ever but I don't see it doing the WWF any good by bringing him back at his old age. Nash and Hall are fine, but Hogan? No.
--------------
Hogan's return will be exellent! Sure, he's over age but Hogan is a true living legend! His return will remind me of the good old days when I first watched it. God bless himand more power to him.

I'm not going to make any more comments until I have actually witnessed him in the ring. I have a feeling he may be more of a manager type person though, he is around the same age as Flair and what does he do in the way of wrestling? Here is your answer, one match every 3 or 4 months.

Hogan was still ok in WCW for a while. That was about in 1998 though so I can't see him be any good any more. In my oppinion the WWF are wrong in signing any wrestler that has said before that they are past their careers.

I can't really see Hogan wrestle, i mean who's he gonna fight? if he wants to be a main eventer he will have to fight austin, rock etc, and the crowd just wont get into it because they will know who should win, a 50-60 year old man or a 30 odd man at the peak of his carrers.
