WWE Secures Hulk Hogan with Fresh Legends Contract

AEW may have snagged a few WWE Hall of Famers, and a couple of them were surprising names. It appears that Hulk Hogan will not be going All Elite, because he is sticking with WWE for another contract. In all reality, Hogan was banned from AEW when the company first opened, but let’s hope that WWE makes good use of him.

Hulk Hogan has a lot going on, even though his biopic with Chris Hemsworth was cancelled. Hogan is still able to get around, as he recovers from career’s worth of injuries.

While speaking with Chris Van Vliet, Hulk Hogan confirmed that he is still under a deal with WWE. In fact, he just inked a new Legends contract. He may not be performing, but he’s still under a WWE contract.

“You know, I still work with the WWE all the time. I just renewed my deal with them, you know. And [Does that mean, we can hear your music hit sometime soon]. I hope so. It’s always fun to go out there. And maybe I can hang on to one of the wrestlers to get me out to the ring.”

“But it’s really crazy. Because when I was the world’s champion, you know, we sold a tonne of merchandise. We didn’t have the vehicle to the internet and the stuff that they have nowadays. But we sold a lot of stuff you know, back in the day.”

“The cartoon were very supportive of the merchandise and stuff like that. And you know, it was kind of strange because I think I had 350 licensees which are like individual deals, Frisbees, watches, headbands, chalk, kites, potty seats, tennis shoes, whatever it may be. And now that I’m kind of like Jimmy Hart says, well, baby, baby, what’s old is new again. What’s old is new again. And I said, Jimmy, you’re right.”

“I’ve been approving merchandise every day, I get new stuff coming in. And I’m up to like, 850,000, you know, like, 900,000 pieces of merchandise. I’m sorry, I’m mistaken it’s 300 different agencies. I’m up to 900 licensees not 900,000. I’m thinking wrong. But instead of 300 deals for Frisbees, or whatever, it’s up to almost 900. Yeah. So it’s like, I’m Elvis is still alive. You know, it’s kind of scary. I don’t know. So but it’s just amazing how the fans have made this live forever, you know, it’s amazing.”

Hulk Hogan is still raking in the cash, and he’s able to make a lot of money in his other endorsement deals, event while under this WWE Legends deal. Only time will tell when fans see Hulk Hogan again, but he’s under contract, and the company is able to book him as they see fit.
