Before Hogan arrived in TNA, the company was seemingly on the biggest role in its history. For those who want a refesher, here is the quick results from Final Resolution, the last pay-per-view pre-Hogan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Resolution_%282009%29
The main feuds were Bobby Lashley and Scott Steiner fighting over Lashley's wife, Desmond Wolfe vs. Kurt Angle, Tara and ODB, Abyss teaming up with Mick Foley against Dr. Stevie and Raven, and finally, AJ Styles vs. Daniels vs. Samoa Joe.
The company was putting on great shows and gaining a lot of momentum as WWE was seemingly slacking before the WrestleMania build began. Now that Hogan has arrived, TNA has still been good, but it isn't really that alternative it was before. Where WWE has started the push to get more youth into its upper midcard and main event, it seems that TNA has gotten older by bringing in a pushing guys like The Band and The Nastys (who are now gone) and bringing in names mainly for their name value (Jeff Hardy, Brian Kendrick, RVD, etc.) I'm not saying those guys aren't talented or will be unable to find a place in TNA, but it is seemingly a case of fixing what wasn't broken.
So let's say TNA still moved to Monday's but kept what it was doing minus Hulk Hogan and all his additions to the company. Do you think the company would still be able to compete or even do better than it is doing now? Why or why not?
