WWE is hosting the Crown Jewel show tomorrow night in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Most of the roster members are currently heading to the country either alongside the crew or in their private jets to perform in one of the biggest shows of the year.
Legendary Hulk Hogan is one of them who has also boarded in a flight for the same purpose but got into serious trouble. The helping hand turned out to be none other than an old friend, Brock Lesnar.
The Rock confirms next appearance
Hulk Hogan and Jimmy Hart were going together on their trip to Saudi Arabia, last night. They had a “hard landing in Iceland” on their private plane. It blew out the tires en route causing an emergency landing. Thankfully, everyone was okay as they safely reached the ground.
But the journey became difficult for them as they had to reach Saudi Arabia. The Hulkster then put out a video saying that he was using “a friend from Minnesota’s plane.”
Later reports claimed that Ric Flair was also with them while going to Saudi Arabia. After landing on Iceland, they needed another plane to get to the middle-east country. The mentioned ‘Minnesota’s Friend’ turned out to be none other than Brock Lesnar.
As reported by PWInsider.com, it was Brock Lesnar who rescued Hulk Hogan, Jimmy Hart, and Flair from that situation. He was flying to Saudi Arabia with his private crew instead of visiting with the other WWE crews. So the Hall of Famers had the opportunity to hop into Lesnar’s flight in order to attend the global show,
“PWInsider.com has learned that friend was actually Brock Lesnar as his plane to Saudi had stopped in Iceland as well, likely to refuel. So, Hogan, Flair and Hart jumped on Lesnar’s flight.”
Previously ringsidenews.com reported that Brock Lesnar was traveling with the WWE crew to Saudi Arabia. But that is not true with the updated news coming from PWInsider. Lesnar usually uses his own transportation for most of the shows he competes in.
This time around, his schedule turned out to be a benefit for Hulk Hogan and co. With Hulk Hogan, Flair, and Lesnar on the same flight, they probably had a blast. The good news is they have safely reached Saudi Arabia and will be attending the show.
