Even when he was trying to help others, Scott Hall still caught heat in WCW...

These days, Hulk Hogan has been advised to stay away from World Wrestling Entertainment. Amidst racism allegations, the 'Hulkster' is taking some time out from the promotion. His most recent spell with the company - as an ambassador of sorts - came after he had spent significant time in TNA. There, Hogan continually claimed that it was only a matter of time before Impact Wrestling became the biggest brand in the grappling world. Obviously, things didn't turn out that way. That said, one of TNA's biggest stars told this week how he had full faith in both Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff's vision for what the promotion could be. The person backing up the disastrous run may just surprise some fans. That's what this article is all about, providing 10 wrestling-related facts which weren't exactly common knowledge last week. TNA surfaces more than once, when a former company headliner reveals his thoughts on the early days of the organisation's existence. Elsewhere, there are facts related to Tommy Dreamer, Jeff Jarrett, The New Day and even The Mountie. Scott Hall also makes an appearance, giving details on a fascinating incident which happened in WCW, one involving a future WWE legend.
