Hulk Hogan Kicks Off WWE Crown Jewel As Host (Pics, Video)

The rumors were true. WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan kicked off WWE Crown Jewel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as the host for the event. This is Hogan’s first WWE TV appearance since 2015, when WWE terminated his contract for racist comments he made in his sex tape. He was reinstated into the WWE Hall of Fame back in July, apologizing to the roster backstage at WWE Extreme Rules.
