• Hulk Hogan Takes A Shot At WWE Roster, Reacts To Rusev’s WrestleMania 35 Challenge
WWE Hall of Famer “The Immortal” Hulk Hogan made his return to WWE programming after 3 years at WWE Crown Jewel.
Hogan then took to Twitter to take a shot at the WWE roster:
Ok, today is a new day. After seeing myself on Crown Jewel I have decided to get serious and get under 300lbs. I looked huge, swole, jacked and my arms are still bigger than most wrestlers legs. I don’t want to look like I can beat up the whole @WWE roster anymore. Only Love HH

I think you should start with me!!! WM35 falls on #RusevDay https://t.co/8rgET5Umin

Hulkster had a very interesting response for The Bulgarian Brute:
.@RusevBUL You are no different than all the other giants that have tried but at least after I defeat you I will have a new manager brother Crushamania. HH https://t.co/erFVTEGPl4
