Getting Noticed By Management
On the issue of Hogan, I just think he's outlived his usefullness. I loved his schtick back in the day. Even liked the Hollywood Hogan character. But to me he thinks he's still the reason for success in the business and that's just no longer true. He's long since passed his prime and it's painful to watch him hobble out to the ring just to cut some silly promo talking about 'the network', Mick Foley, or who the man is. Yeah Hulkie we get it. Back in the day you were a big deal. You aren't anymore. But since he and Bischoff are joined at the hip, I doubt we'll see anything much different going forward.
As for Winter/Sky, I get what you're saying. But I see Winter as a much better wrestler than Sky. I keep hoping to see improvement in Sky's in-ring technique, but I'm no longer sure she's capable. Maybe she's not putting in the time off camera, who knows? But her results in the ring are, at times, atrocious. And to me, they've wasted the talent of Angelina Love thru all of this, who I also see as a good wrestler. Boy when I think of the talent they've lost over the last 2 or 3 years in the ladies division, no wonder it's suffering.
Thing is a lot of people in the company WANT Bischoff promoted from Executive Producer to Vice President or even to replace Dixie Carter as President and are willing to keep Hogan around as long as they can keep Bischoff. From what I have read Bischoff is really the guy they want, they just feel they cant have him without Hogan.
