On last week’s RAW, WWE held a very touching tribute for ”Mean” Gene Okerlund. This segment also featured Hulk Hogan making his return to RAW. Ric Flair was also called to be on the show last week, however he was not used.
On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer talked about Hulk Hogan being the only one in the ring. For starters, WWE were confident no one would complain about Hogan as he was just paying tribute to Gene Okerlund. Secondly, their genuine friendship also made them send Hogan alone.
They decided that Hogan was the better choice. Hogan and Mean Gene do go back further than Flair and Mean Gene. Flair was originally called to be there to do that and then whatever it was they decided this was a good way to bring Hogan back and nobody is going to complain about that.”
