Hulk Hogan’s new freestyle wrestling league has already sparked buzz, but now there’s a political twist. In a recent interview, Hogan suggested that former President Donald Trump would not appear in the league’s debut event in Cleveland on August 30th.
“We were ahead of the game, but I think we know who’s at the August 30 event in Cleveland to see the president step up and get involved,” Hogan said. “I might know someone. I’ll say so. Big Man herself.”
Hogan and Trump have been in a long-standing relationship, dating back to their relationship with WWE and their appearances on WrestleMania. Trump recently pulled headlines after participating in the NCAA Wrestling Championship.
This comment adds a new layer of intrigue to the launch of Hogan’s authentic American wrestling, already establishing himself as a destroyer by providing elite amateur wrestlers with opportunities beyond traditional promotions.
While no official confirmation has been made, Hogan’s playful yet pointed out comments suggest that fans and the media should expect more than mere athletic fireworks when the league debuts.
What to see: Will Trump’s presence turn the launch into a political scene? All eyes will be in Cleveland on August 30th.
