Hulk Hogan Admits He Held Younger Talent Down

Hulk Hogan is currently preparing for the nWo reunion, and he’s patiently waiting for his chance to return to WWE programming.

The former WWE Champion recently said that he’s looking forward to going to Saudi Arabia with WWE, and now fans are wondering if he’ll be showing up at Crown Jewel next month.

It’s been a while since Hogan has appeared on WWE programming, but throughout his long career Hogan spend many years on top.

The WWE Hall of Famer has also been accused of holding down younger talent while he was on top, and he admitted to the Orlando Sentinel that he used politics to keep his spot.

“Once I got in the [top] spot, to keep the spot, that’s where the politics come in. Everybody goes, ‘Well, Hulk Hogan was a politician.’ Well, thank God I was! That’s why I made more money than anybody, that’s why I kept the belt longer, that’s why instead of a five- or six- or 10-year run like the Rock or Stone Cold or different wrestlers, I had a 35-year run on top.”
