I have managed to catch the first episode of Hulk Hogan's Celebrity Championship Wrestling on Youtube.
Boy.
It's Eric Bischoff and Hogan's attempt to tap into reality TV by putting a number of Z-List celebrities together to learn professional wrestling.
Each episode has the stars training and then they are put in the ring in front of an audience and they work the spots they have learned during the day. Then, the worst performer is voted off after Hogan shouts, 'You're a jabroni, get out of my ring!'
Alan Sugar and Donald Trump would roll in their graves - if they were dead, of course.
The funniest part of the entire concept is the trainers are named as 'legends'.
Which legends would you expect to be team trainers - Steve Austin? Ric Flair? Maybe Hogan himself?
Brutus Beefcake and 'Nasty Boy' Brian Knobbs!
Despite what you think about Hulk Hogan, you've got to respect the fact he looks after his friends. Calling them legends is a bit too much, though.
I'll probably watch the rest of the season because it is like seeing a car wreck before your eyes. You just can't help but look.
