Triple H Forming An Unstoppable Monster Heel Stable on Raw? WWE Edits Out Big E’s Comment From Raw Again, Big Debut Plan Coming

4. JBL Asks Jimmy Hart If Hulk Hogan Is A Racist On A WWE Network Show

WWE isn’t holding back on mentioning WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan on their programming anymore. During the final episode of “Legends with JBL” series, JBL asked his special guest, WWE Hall of Famer “The Mouth of the South” Jimmy Hart on if the Hulkster is a racist or not. Below is what Jimmy Hart said:

“See, that’s what’s so crazy. I’ve been with him more than anybody and I could sit here and go, ‘oh, naw, naw, naw’. I’m just going to tell it like it is. From Memphis on down with Hulk back then till my early days up here, WCW, all of that stuff, not one time did we ever sit in the car and sit with me and go, ‘look at this blah, blah, blah. Look over here on this.’ I think what happened on the deal, and like anything else, having a pity party, drinking, his wife left him, ‘poor is me’, ‘oh whoa is me’.

Absolutely. Hogan was under the influence at the time of the comments, but still no excuse. To me, if you really are racist, you have to let it slip more than one time. I mean, if you’re really a racist, people have got to see it over and over and over and over and over.

And the weird thing about it, the next week, we have to go to Chicago. We’re in Chicago, Scottie Pippen, ‘Hulkster! Let me get a picture made with you!’ ‘Oh, okay.’ Mike Tyson, ‘hey, Hulk, can we get a picture with these for my kids over here?’ Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. ‘Okay, fine.’ But it has been all over the news now and I’m thinking to myself, ‘man, they must not got the memo or something’ because, I mean, we’re expecting, we had security with us, we were expecting the worst. It was like they never said anything. It was weird to me on that.

The devastating thing to Hulk, more than anything, is what happened with his affiliation with here. That’s the thing that has tore him up more than anything. We talk every day or every other day and he watches RAW every Monday night. I’m being honest with you. He watches. He goes, ‘they did this’ and ‘I saw this’, ‘oh my God, did you see that?’ ‘Yeah, Hulk, I did.’ And I know what he’s going through, but sometimes I feel like I want to say, ‘Hulk, get over it. You’ve had a great career. It has been awesome. People still love you. WWE still loves you. They’ve got to move on and do what’s best for business, best for them.'”
