Aussie Media Takes Hogan-Flair Fight Seriously?

hogan-flair

In a bizarre bit of reporting that comes via Fark, the Australian media—such as the Sydney’s Daily Telegraph—where apparently Hulk Hogan was “badly injured” after chaos erupted at a press conference featuring him and Ric Flair.

The press conference veered violently out of control today as Hogan and ring rival Ric Flair let their animosity break into a full-scale bloody brawl.

Sydney Central’s photographer Phil Rogers has his flash broken when Flair threw a table off the stage and into the press gathering before diving on photographers.

Media were stunned as Hogan's head began bleeding profusely and confusion broke out when the veteran wrestling star was unable to get to his feet.

Journalists narrowly missed being struck with the table and photographers ducked and weaved as Flair took off his trouser belt and began to whip anyone within range.

Uhh… I’m going to assume this is kind of like how, on Christmas Eve, the weather guy on the local news will report that he’s picking up Santa’s sleigh on his radar. But… uh… seriously, Australia?

You mean the weather man doesn't see Santa on the radar?

Lol but seriously. This is too funny. Apparently some site has a pole up about this incident and is asking people whether they think Hogan's blood was real or not. Silly Aussies spend too much time in the sun.

The Daily Telegraph is just another worthless tabloid newspaper. It wouldn't surprise me if it ran on the front page of sport.
