[I Am The Genius]

That's a good question, although we'll never know, it's fun to debate! IMO he still drew a huge pop in 1993 when he left, even after the steroid issue. I think that he would have risen back to the top in 94 and most of 95 like he did with WCW had he stayed. That being said, fans would have been eager to see a new star rise toward the late 90's, and then I believe Vince would have pushed a heel turn for Hogan. I don't think Vince would have ruled out turning Hogan heel had the crowd lost interest in him. Stone Cold and The Rock both were heels at one point later in their careers (stone cold for a short time in 2001, and the rock not too long after he faced Hogan at Wrestlemania).

I don't think Hollywood Hogan would have been created though. Honestly, I think Vince would have had the pro-American Hogan turn anti-American, similar to how Sgt. Slaughter turned heel.

On another note Stardust, nice avatar. Valentine was a heck of a wrestler!
