According to Cagesideseats.com, there are strong rumours of WWE Hall of Famer returning to the ring with the WWE- let’s analyse the rumour mill surrounding this story –
PW Insider says that despite his reinstatement to the Hall of Fame, Hulk Hogan has not signed “any kind of contract” with WWE. He headed back to Florida after Extreme Rules in Pittsburgh and isn’t planned for appearances at this week’s Raw or SmackDown.
So how long before we see him think that, at 64 years old, that we want to see him not only wrestle, but win the WWE Championship again?
