BROOKE HOGAN TO JOIN TNA’S “IMPACT WRESTLING” ON SPIKE TV STARTING THURSDAY, MAY 31

New York, NY, May 17, 2012 – Television personality and recording artist Brooke Hogan is joining the cast of the highly-rated weekly wrestling program, TNA’s “IMPACT WRESTLING” starting Thursday, May 31 on Spike TV. Brooke’s role will be as the Executive in Charge of the female wrestling division, The Knockouts.

Brooke will join a star-studded cast of the biggest names in professional wrestling, including her father, wrestling legend Hulk Hogan. TNA’s flagship series, “IMPACT WRESLTING,” telecasts on Spike TV and is one of the network’s top-rated series on Thursday nights with young men and currently ranks among the top shows on cable in its timeslot with Men 18-34.

In addition to overseeing the traditional duties of the Knockouts Division, Brooke will bring a new energy and direction to the role working with the girls in a variety of capacities.

"I have really gotten to know Brooke by working with her on her music career this past year and a half," said Dixie Carter, President of TNA Wrestling. "When we did talk wrestling, I not only loved her passion and knowledge of it, but the fresh, creative ideas she would come up with. She is very savvy. I asked if she would consider teaming up with me in this capacity while she also worked on her music, and I was thrilled when she said ‘yes.’ A big personality runs in her genes, obviously, and I know she is going to take an already exciting division of Impact Wrestling to another level."

Brooke is heading to New York next week for a media tour to promote her addition to the IMPACT WRESTLING team. Brooke will also promote “IMPACT WRESTLING’s” move to 8 PM and that the series will telecast LIVE for the summer starting Thursday, May 31. TNA's 10th anniversary SLAMMIVERSARY pay-per-view-event is set for June 10th in Dallas, Texas.

She isn't hot....

I won't harp on her until a few weeks into her stint. At least Impact Wrestling is getting publicity since TMZ reported it - I think they did, I didn't read the Facebook post. Will watch TMZ tonight to make sure they don't just sweep it under the rug.

By I think they did I mean mentioning Impact Wrestling. Fucking mobile version.

I shan't be viewing her debut on my birthday.

Nepotism's running wild, brother!

Trust in Scotty, brotherdudeJACK!

Scott Steiner speaks the honest truth, as always.

Reading the non spam version of this thread, the response is overwhelmingly positive...

Look, is it nepotism? Yes. Does it epitomize everything that's wrong with Hogan's current agenda? Yes. Does is point out another flaw in TNA Management's thinking? Yes. Does it really matter that much though? No.

If Steiner wasn't so juiced up, we'd have called him Nostradamus.
