Hulk Hogan has once again got caught in controversy, even if it is minimal to his public reputation. The WWE Hall of Fame wrestler’s said controversy always remains in the social media realm. Last week, Hulkster gave away his phone number on Twitter; unbeknownst to him that anyone can see it. The former-WWE champion tweeted his number to former Thunder in Paradise star, Chris Lemon.
Alas, the new situation that occurred wasn’t Hogan’s fault, but that of a former WWE superstar. According to Wrestling Inc, Brutus Beefcake has been selling Hulk Hogan’s autographed pictures, but Hogan didn’t sign anything.

Like it was mentioned above, Hulk Hogan had no idea that Brutus Beefcake was selling unauthorized WWE photos of him to anybody. Yes, professional wrestling includes many bumps to the head, but Hulk Hogan is still in great shape today, which is why he’s campaigning for a match at WWE WrestleMania 32 next year.
In an earlier report by the Inquisitr, Hulk Hogan was given the “OK” by Vince McMahon to wrestle at WrestleMania 32. Now, there are many risks to Hogan competing once again. First, he has to pass the very-strict physical the WWE medical team puts forth. Not even 40-year old wrestlers can pass it sometimes. Hogan is in his sixties.
Second, who would Hogan face? The only man that makes sense is John Cena, to which he’d have to drop the United States championship before then. Right now, Cena is doing exactly what the WWE Universe wanted him to do, stay in the mid-card and make the U.S. title relevant again. Where does this leave Hogan?
WWE could pull off the unthinkable and have Hogan wrestle Sting at WrestleMania 32, but that slot should be reserved for the Undertaker. There a lot of options for Hogan, but only one will make sense when it’s time to make a decision. For the time being, Hulk Hogan is being an ambassador for WWE.
