from 411 http://www.411mania.com/wrestling/news/newsboard.php?news_id=7006 quote: More On Hogan's Apparent Departure From WWE Posted By Widro on 06.30.03
Not taking his lesser role well at all...
It does appear as if Hulk Hogan is gone from WWE, at least for now.
Apparently Hogan and Vince McMahon had a phone conversation late last week, and were unable to come to new terms. The split it said to be amicable.
The main concern is reportedly that Hogan was uncomfortable with the creative direction of his character. He felt that he was not being used properly, in that he wanted to be a feature performer not "just another wrestler". During the Smackdown six-man tag main event, Hogan was reportedly upset that Lesnar and Angle did not tag him in when the crowd chanted his name, which would have been an improvisation of the script of the match.
In addition, Hogan might have been upset that his headlining of MSG did not sell out, whereas Raw the night before was a sell out.
There are apparently rumblings that Hogan will once again look to start his own promotion, perhaps resurrecting the XWF.

I was looking forward to seeing the Piper vs Hogan battle of the ages at Wrestlemania XX.
It would have been craptacular!

Their match in the main event of Starrcade '96 was one of the worst I've ever seen. The thought of adding 7-8 more years on it frankly scares the shit out of me.

Ah, the apparantly annual SummerSlam syndrome. Well, the Hulkster should be back around Rumble/No Way Out PPV time. Then I might give a damn about Smackdown again.
