Major Name Signs New Multi-Year Deal With WWE

You never know when a WWE legend might sign a new deal with the company as former WWE Women’s Champion Victoria recently confirmed she signed a “nostalgic contract” and Jesse Venture has also indicated that he’s close to signing a deal with World Wrestling Entertainment.

Recently Hulk Hogan appeared on Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast and the Hall of Famer confirmed that he signed a new deal with WWE that will keep him with the company for the next five years.

“Working with Vince (McMahon) for all that time, and now working with Nick Khan. I signed a five-year deal. I’m 71 years old in a few weeks. I signed a five-year deal for the licensing and merchandising stuff, and ambassador stuff, if they need me to do something for WrestleMania. I just love doing it. It’s definitely different.”

WWE has obviously gone through a regime change over the last few years, and Hogan took the time to praise Nick Khan when he said, “What I feel with the leadership is working with Nick Khan now. He’s more, for me, business cut and dry. He doesn’t overthink the creative. Nick Khan is strictly business. I said, ‘Hey brother, this art work that hasn’t been used for 35 years. I need it for my Real American Beer.’ Nick Khan says, ‘Let me get back to you in a couple of days.’ ‘No rush.’ He calls me back, we talked, I don’t want to give numbers, ‘You can use the artwork. I need X amount of percentage out of every million bucks you make.’

Instead of me paying you guys hundreds and thousands of dollars, and potentially millions of dollars, I can go out for $300 bucks and have someone do this artwork that is reasonably similar, maybe reasonably confusing. Nick goes, ‘Let me just give it to you.’ Good, we’re on same team, brother. Nick was really cool. He made it really easy on me. Vince was great, too, but I don’t know if Vince would make that quick of a decision. Nick has been very easy, supportive, and helpful.”
