Report: WWE Confirms Hulk Hogan for Crown Jewel

According to report from WrestlingInc, WWE confirmed that Hulk Hogan will make an appearance at Crown Jewel in Riyadh. 
WWE had added Hulk Hogan to their site’s Events page earlier in the week, but took him off at some point today. However, WrestlingInc said they reached out to WWE, which confirmed Hogan will be at Crown Jewel. 
It will be Hogan’s first public appearance under the WWE banner since WrestleMania 2015. Apparently, the appearance had been set for awhile. WrestlingInc reported that someone who attended Eric Bischoff’s One Man Show in Newcastle on October 10th heard from Bischoff himself during a VIP Private Meet and Greet that Hogan would be heading to Saudi Arabia with WWE. 

Hogan also told The Orlando Sentinel in an interview last week that he was looking forward to going to Saudi Arabia with WWE. There’s little doubt that with the controversy already over the WWE going to Riyadh in the first place that Hogan’s appearance will add more gas to the fire, considering some current talent on the WWE roster, including Titus O’Neil and members of New Day, said they weren’t ready to welcome the Hulkster back.
