Eric Bischoff was asked by Sports Illustrated what he thinks about Hogan returning to the company that made him a household name.
“I was really happy when I got the news because I know how much it means to him. We’ve discussed the potential of this scenario for a long time.”
“You’re going to have haters no matter what you do. You could cure every disease known to man and, still, someone’s going to hate you. But I don’t think people value that kind of negative input as much as they used to because people recognize it for what it is, and that’s people who want to be noisy and get attention.”
“Professional wrestling, the WWE, and being in the Hall of Fame represent such a large part of Hulk’s life, as does his connection to the audience. For that to not be there for him, it hurt. So I think the news is great for Hulk as a person and for wrestling fans. To many generations of fans, Hulk Hogan really represents the beginning of what became this amazing industry that we have.”
To clear things up, Hogan is reportedly not signed to any WWE contract at this time. He has just been reinstated to the WWE Hall of Fame. Only time will tell if WWE offers him a contract.
