Question

By Scott Keith on 15 April 2016

> Scott,

> I have to add to the question that I asked yesterday concerning Hogan & Savage rumored to return to the WWF in late-’96. If this had happened, what would have been the ramifications on wrestling as we know it? Would Savage & Hogan have assumed all of the power once again, preventing any future "Stone Cold" push, thus killing the "Attitude" era before it even began?
>
> Thanks.

I don’t think so. Especially not Savage because Vince was only offering a limited position and schedule in the first place. Hogan might have tried in the short term like in 2002, but I think the Austin train would have rolled over him too. Vince could smell the money on Stone Cold by 97 and Hulk would have been putting him over.
