MLB Star?

By Scott Keith on 30 July 2018


Hi Scott 

So, question for you. 

August 11th 1953, Terry Eugene Bollea is born in Augusta, Georgia. As a kid, he starts playing Little League Baseball. He remains fit and well and attracts scouts from all over the country, as he gets older, he ends up in the Major Leagues and becomes a baseball star. 

Apart from occasionally catching it on TV, he's not bothered about pro-wrestling. 


What does the wrestling scene look like now? Was there an 80s boom? An Attitude era? An NWO? Wrestlemania? 

Does everything still happen without Hogan, perhaps another wrestler becomes a household name instead, or is the wrestling world vastly different now? 

Cheers
Vince really wanted Kerry Von Erich as a backup, but without Hogan there’s no Wrestlemania and we’d still be stuck in the territory era today.  The NBC deal wouldn’t have happened and WCW would have went under in 1994 without him.  
However, at least Gawker would still be around.
