HULK HOGAN COMMENTS ON WHETHER HE WILL APPEAR AT WRESTLEMANIA

By Dave Scherer on 2009-02-20 14:08:15

As we mentioned earlier this week, the rumors going around at No Way Out last Sunday were that Hulk Hogan had spoken with Vince McMahon about appearing on World Wrestling Entertainment's biggest show of the year, WrestleMania.  Hogan appeared on the Bubba The Love Sponge show today and addressed the topic.  Mike Settle heard the interview and sent the following report.

"Hogan said that he had spoken with McMahon last weekend about appearing on the show.  He said that they talked for a while but didn't come up with a scenario for Hogan to appear on the show at this time.  He implied that the door was still open for a Hogan appearance and he said that if he worked the show, it's possible he would donate some or all of his payoff to John Graziano, who his son Nick put in dire straits after a car accident."

My own two cents is that Hogan is dying to be on the show and Vince isn't as desperate for it as Hulk is at this time.  But, with six weeks left before the show, anything can still happen.

Andy McIntire heard the interview as well and upon reading this story, added:

I don't remember the exact quote, but I think the report sent in is a little misleading.  Hogan made it clear that there is no chance he's doing anything at Wrestlemania.  The door still being open references was about future Non-Wrestlemania appearances.
