NEW WWE DEAL WITH TOTINO'S, WHAT HOGAN WAS DOING ON TOY HUNTER AND MORE WWE NEWS

Hulk Hogan appeared on yesterday's episode of "Toy Hunter" on The Travel Channel. In the show, Hunter Jordan Hembrough was tasked at finding vintage 1980s LJN WWF action figures by Taboo of the Black Eyed Peas. Hembrough explored several places, including the home of RingsideCollectibles.com's Tim Ash and Hulk Hogan's Beach in Tampa, FL. In the end, Hembrough purchased a rare 1989 Hogan figure from Hogan's "personal collection." There was a lot of wrestling trivia and shots of different older items. There was also an error in the show where they said Hogan was the first pro wrestler on the cover of Sports Illustrated. That distinction goes to Danny Hodge.

WWE has come to terms with Totino’s Pizza Rolls for a new promotion that will feature Sheamus on its packaging. There will be AXXESS activities sponsored by Totino's as well.

The Solomon Crowe bout mentioned earlier today did not air on WWE NXT but was instead replaced by the debut of Adam Rose.
