The newest guest to join Logan Paul on his IMPAULSIVE podcast was Hulk Hogan. While speaking about Vince McMahon and Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque, Hogan shared that he signed a five-year deal with WWE.
He stated that it is for licensing, merchandising and ambassador-related matters or if he’s needed for a WrestleMania.
Hogan turned 71 years old in August.
Over the weekend, Lisa Marie Varon (Victoria) revealed that she signed a Nostalgia contract with WWE.
While he’s unfortunately not wrong, what a stupid thing to say. Guys like him and Flair are just never going to change. Different times I guess. The amount of fans I see defending Benoit on IG is gross. There is a clip of Heyman shutting one idiot down whos giving the panel a hard time over Benoit not being in the HOF.
Ill never defend Hogan, but this is no different then working with him in the past, or both WWE and AEW working with Flair (who has said and done MUCH worse). This is what companies get working with that generation.
Not saying it’s good or morally just, but this deal was probably about retaining rights to some of their most historically important IP. I’ll be surprised (and disappointed) if Hulk appears on TV for WWE anytime soon. Nobody is that stupid… right?
I’m split on if they would or not. TKO certainly isnt scared to voice political beliefs (ie. Dana), however UFC fans tend to align with his beliefs (ie. right wing) more then WWE fans seem align with Hogan’s beliefs.
Any time a celebrity gets involved with politics, they are going to piss off half the US, so my gut tells me they would do it, but only in certain parts of the country.
