LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - CMT is getting in the wrestling ring with Hulk Hogan. The country music cable network has ordered eight episodes of the competition series "Hulk Hogan's Celebrity Championship Wrestling" for a fall debut.

The series will feature 10 celebrities competing for the title of "Celebrity All-Star Wrestling Champion" through challenges and elimination matches. Two former pro wrestlers will train the contestants, with Hogan and former World Championship Wrestling president Eric Bischoff serving as judges. A third judge along with the competitors and trainers will be announced later.

Hogan, who is credited as a creator and executive producer of the series, said he was looking "to shake things up" in terms of sports entertainment with "something different and more contemporary."

Danny Bonaduce
Dustin Diamond (Great...

)
Trishelle Cannatella
Erin Murphy
Tiffany
Todd Bridges
Frank Stallone
Dennis Rodman (Guess those rumors of him being on Celebrity Rehab 2 are false)
Nikki Ziering
Eric "Butterbean" Esch

Some of these celebs are hooked on doing these reality shows.

Ok people, start sending your emails to CMT and let them know you don't want to watch a channel that airs a program hosted by a man who thinks GOD PUNISHED the boy who was riding with his son when they had an accident and God caused this pain and grief on him.

As a Bewitched fan, I have to ask what is Erin Murphy thinking??

Even if I had cable, I wouldn't watch anything that has to do with the Hulk Hogan family. No way!

Ireneparalegal · 06-08-2008, 08:45 PM

How is it that Erin Murphy was asked/chosen to be on this show? I mean, out of all the people in the world, why Erin?

Jude The Obscure · 06-08-2008, 10:14 PM

Not only that, but WHY, ERIN, WHY DID YOU DO THIS???

Ireneparalegal · 06-08-2008, 10:37 PM

Obviously she did it.

Danny Bonaduce is the biggest reality whore of the all time.I'm so sick of these washed up celebrities taking any TV gig offered to them.Why couldn't they do something good with themselves like Ron Howard?I'm also shocked that Erin Murphy is doing this.I started reading at the bottom of the page and when it said "Erin" I thought you were all talking about Erin Moran.I was laughing thinking about her wrestling after seeing her get injured every week on Celebrity Fit Club.

I read an interview not too long ago where Mindy Cohn said that the "celebreality" market was very lucrative and producers are eager to cast C-D listers/has-beens on their shows. She was offered a spot on Celebrity Fit Club but she declined (Major

to Mindy though:she won't do any reality shows because she doesn't want to cash in her previous fame). I guess a lot of these "celebs" do these shows because it's the only work they can't find.

I don't know what the producers were thinking when they signed up Dustin Diamond for this show. 2 seasons of CFC are more than enough but then again I won't be watching this show so I really don't care.

Same thing happened to me when I read the article that mentioned the cast list. I don't think Erin Moran would be a good choice for this show. Seeing how she got injured in almost every episode in CFC, in this show she would've probably ended up getting killed.
