No, Hogan should not have put either over, neither of them were worthy of it.

HBK is not, and never will be, the draw Hulk Hogan was and still is. For Hogan to lose to HBK would mean nothing..HBK would gain no further drawing ability, and Hogan's status would go down in prestige, much like Flair and Foley's did at the tail end of the careers.

Orton had just come off a 60 day suspension, had just been made Kurt Angle's bitch at One Night Stand, and had absolutely zero momentum going into that match. Simply being in a program with Hogan got Orton back on the right track, as evidenced by his World title run only a year later.

The right results happened both times.
