The Gawker Media incident has been the turning point in the legendary career of Hulk Hogan. At a time, he was quite happy the way things were approaching in the WWE. After spending the better part of the last decade in WWE’s rival promotion, TNA, he finally made his way back to the company in the year 2014.
It was just before Wrestlemania 30 where he was named to be the host of the show after making the grand comeback to his roots. He enjoyed a year in that stint making it to two consecutive Wrestlemania appearances. However, this situation turned into a nightmare following a lawsuit filed against him by the Gawker media house that involved a racism scandal.
The WWE legend fell victim to it that forced the company to detach themselves from Hogan. All the mentions of him getting removed from WWE websites. He got banned by the biggest pro-wrestling promotion of the world following the court case.
However, two years later, he managed to overcome the odds by winning the case that handed him a handsome amount of money from the Gawker media. It helped him to get rid of all the accusations of racism. Plus, with the money, he was able to open a chain of Hogan beach shops around the Florida state.
With that being said, it is quite evident the fans want to see him returning to the WWE, sooner. But, till date, we have got no updates from the officials whether they are willing to bring him back or not. The same question was asked towards his daughter and a former TNA superstar, Brooke Hogan who gave the nod to it.
The interview was conducted by TMZ Sports in which Brooke Hogan stated despite the rumours suggesting he might not want to come back; there are good chances it will eventually happen. He is the former franchise player of the company and hence can be used in bigger capacities. In a recent interview in Hogan Beach shop, the Hulkster urged the fans to give an opinion about whether they would like to see him back and they also gave positive reactions.
