- A source close to Ric Flair has confirmed today that the WWE Hall of Famer will indeed be going to work Hulk Hogan’s Hulkamania tour of Australia and he will be wrestling Hulk Hogan. These will be Flair’s first official matches since wrestling Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24.

Other names set for the tour include Diamond Dallas Page, Shannon Moore, Kennedy, The Godfather, Val Venis, Umaga, Lacey Von Erich and probably The Nasty Boys and Brutus Beefcake.

Thanks to Ron Wohl for the following report from the Hulkamania tour debut in Melbourne, Australia today:

Hulk Hogan’s Hulkamania Tour
Melbourne Australia - November 21st, 2009
Report by Ron Wohl

Me and a pal attended the Hulkamania opener in Melbourne tonight. The arena was about 50% full with lots of section tarped off. They were giving out tons of tickets and offering deals on tickets this weekend and still you could see many empty seats. It was announced that the show will be put on DVD soon and shown for free on One HD next month.

* Nick Dinsmore & The Godfather defeated Rock of Love in a short match. Pimpfather got the win and brought his hoes in the ring.

* Matt Cross defeated Shannon Moore with the SSP. Okay match with Shannon botching a big spot on the floor. Ouch.

* The Nasty Boys with Jimmy Hart defeated Vampire Warrior and Black Pearl in a street fight. Good, entertaining match. Nastys were awesome.

* Brutus Beefcake with Jimmy Hart beat Heidenreich in a short match with the sleeper hold. Really bad match I thought. Brutus and Jimmy hit the ref adter the match and cut his hair.

* Lacey Von Erich won a bikni contest. Nothing even close to being special or great. A local indy guy appeared and the Pimpfather hosted the thing. Boring.

* Ric Flair cut an insane, amazing, great promo. Unreal here. Flair ripped on Hogan and said he would make him bleed like never before. Great stuff, worth the DVD probably. Everyone ate it up.

* Ken Anderson defeated Sean Morley in a horrible match. Anderson didn’t use his Kennedy schtick but replaced it with Anderson and was good on the mic. However, he looked like crap and he and the former Val Venis stunk the place up with this one. Kennedy won with the Mic Check.

* Too Cool defeated Edward Smith Fatu (Umaga) and Orlando Jordan. Too Cool was made up of Rikishi and Brian Christopher. Umaga took a nasty bump. Too Cool got the win though and celebrated to an enormous pop afterwards.

* Hulk Hogan defeated Ric Flair in the main event. Flair came out with different music, a bit of a remix to his usual theme. A Hogan promo aired before he came out and everyone ate it up. Hogan used his old WCW music. You could see lots of guys including Eric Bischoff at the curtain watching this one. Hogan looked off balance at times. Lots of blood here as both did the blade job. Flair was literally covered in blood. This was kind of slow but entertaining I guess. Flair locked on the Figure Four when LACEY VON ERICH ran out. Hogan hit the big boot when Lacey got on the apron and distracted the ref. Hogan got his brass knuckles and nailed Flair to win. Hogan celebrated while Flair made an exit left to the back. Hogan left the normal way and was congratulated it looked like by Eric Bischoff.

The show was fun but obviously not the best wrestling you will find. But what did you expect? Some moments were sad to see, some angered you to no end like the Kennedy match but hey, it is what it is.

There's also a bit of video if you click the link to the site where this story is but luckily it doesn't show Flairs flabby arse.

HULK HOGAN scored a cheeky win over arch rival Ric Flair in their latest battle — and exposed the 60-year-old's flabby bum in the process.

The pair are wrestling Down Under as part of the Hulkamania tour and have whipped up interest in their rivalry by cutting furious promos and shedding blood in the squared circle.

Hogan defeated the 16 times world champion in the main event after The Nature Boy used every trick in the book to try and gain the advantage in their No Disqualification bout.

Flair knocked the referee unconscious, drew blood from Hogan in the first few minutes of their clash and enlisted every heel in the locker room in a bid to steal victory.

But, as any good wrestling fan would expect, when the chip were down Hogan dug deep and Hulked Up - catching Flair flush on the jaw with a big boot before sealing the pinfall.

Although some fans felt they got a bum deal when Hogan pulled his rivals trunks down.

One told us: "Flair may be known as The Nature Boy, but this was a bit too natural for everyone in the arena."

Legends including Brutus 'The Barber' Beefcake and The Nasty Boys had earlier turned back the clock to wow fans alongside modern stars such as Mr Kennedy.

Hogan, 56, will take a short break from the ring before taking up a new role with TNA from January 1.

when LACEY VON ERICH ran out. Hogan hit the big boot when Lacey got on the apron and distracted the ref.

I actually saw a youtube clip of this and it was pretty funny.
