[QUOTE="jmucchiello, post: 330306, member: 813"] [b]Warning: SPOILERS for SUMMERSLAM (sorta)[/b] Hogan didn't go to Australia because he and Vince disagreed over whether or not it was a special event. Vince said it was just another house show; Hogan said you don't fly 16 hours to a house show. Hogan also has very bad knees. A 16 hour flight would have had him laid up for a day or two after each flight. It is hard to call Hogan just another jobber when you consider how over he is with the fans. He's got some time off now because Vince is annoyed with him (and because it really helped build Brock Lesner). He'll be back. Fake: All wrestling matches have a planned ending: who wins and usually how it happens. Sometimes the wrestlers just wing it, waiting until the referee tells them it's time to finish the match. Some wrestlers prefer to script the match down to each chop to the chest. Others only like to work out complicated stuff. Angle ducking Mysterio's first 619 at Summerslam was probably just as planned as the one he took to the face later in the match. [/QUOTE]
