Just hours after the Flair attack, Hogan showed up at the Sydney Football Stadium for another press conference looking "fit and healthy." Australia's Wentworth Couriernewspaper reports that Hogan told reporters, "It took me about half an hour to get freshened up before I ran back out, it got a bit crazy. I didn’t plan on going backwards off the stage, that was a bit of a shock."
