Major TNA News: Hulk Hogan announces when he'll make his TNA debut during UFC Ultimate Fighter finale, says TNA is going go head-to-head with WWE Raw

Hulk Hogan will make his TNA debut on a live special that will air on Monday, January 4 on Spike TV. Hogan made the announcement on Saturday night during an interview with Joe Rogan during the UFC Ultimate Fighter finale live on Spike TV.

Hogan stated on the air that they would be going head-to-head with WWE on January 4. "We're going wide open, head-on-head, we're going to battle with the WWE," Hogan said. Hogan was noncommittal when Rogan asked him whether he'd be wrestling.

Powell's POV: I'm a longtime advocate of the idea of running a live Monday night special against Raw, as it will give TNA officials an idea of what type of rating they could draw on Monday nights. It will be a blast to have a Monday Night War if only for one night. The TNA show will reportedly be a three-hour event. It will be interesting to see whether WWE counters by extending Raw to three hours that night.
