5 Potential Storylines For Hulk Hogan After WWE Crown Jewel

With the WWE bringing back Hulk Hogan, by having him make his on-screen return to the company at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia, the writing is now on the wall!

The Hulkster is back! Now, granted that Hogan isn't going to be booked as the WWE Champion or Universal titleholder anytime soon, however, the moustache-sporting, vitamin-eating former WWE and WCW World Heavyweight Champion will undoubtedly be featured prominently on WWE programming in the days to come.

Hogan, despite being 65 years of age, to this very day boasts a fan-base which extends from countries such as the US, Canada, UK, Mexico, and Brazil, to that of the continents of Asia, Africa and beyond. That said, it's no secret that the WWE has to tread intelligently with Hogan and his on-screen character, moving forward.

Today, we look at the most ideal storylines featuring Hulk Hogan, that WWE could present us with in the aftermath of Crown Jewel...

#5 Replacement for Baron Corbin and Kurt Angle

The Kurt Angle and Baron Corbn storyline has run its course

Let's face it, Kurt Angle's run as the General Manager of Monday Night RAW is on its last legs, and the very fact that he's still technically 'on vacation', serves to make the ongoing angle a tad passe, so to speak. With that in mind, it'd come as a surprise to absolutely no one that the WWE is currently looking to potentially replace Angle with a new RAW GM.

Granted that "Constable" Corbin presently serves as the "Acting General Manager" of Monday Night RAW, however, the man would be better off taking a backseat, and letting someone who's a better promo -- such as Hulk Hogan! -- take center stage.

Hogan would be a million times more entertaining as the RAW GM, and the very fact that The Hulkster, at 65 years young, can cut a better promo than Corbin, in and of itself, solidifies the case of Hogan being a better prospective GM than Corbin.

Furthermore, reinstating Angle as RAW GM after his 'vacation' would be a terrible decision, and the WWE shall surely be better off appointing Hogan as the red brand's new General Manager -- to help add intrigue and a much-needed 'vitamin dose' to WWE's Monday night flagship show...

#4 Heel Hollywood Hogan

Hollywood Hogan is WWE's best bet right now

Hulk Hogan returned to the WWE back in 2014, after a considerably lengthy stint with TNA (now--Impact Wrestling), however, The Hulkster's WWE comeback didn't last long, as he was unceremoniously fired from the WWE in 2015. His detractors asserted that Hogan had been caught on tape mouthing racist profanities, and that the man ought to be banished from the WWE Universe forever.

Well, nature has a funny way of performing its balancing act, and fast-forward 3 years to the here and now -- voila -- the WWE has reinstated Hogan into its Hall of Fame, the vast majority of professional wrestling fans and experts have taken note of the dozens of apologies issues by The Hulkster for his aforesaid racist rants, and guess what...

Just like that, Hogan is back in the mix of things in the WWE Universe -- at Crown Jewel, nonetheless.

That said, the general consensus among the hardcore pro-wrestling fans seems to be that they're locked and loaded, ready to rain down boos on the returning Hogan. Ergo, the WWE would be better off booking Hogan as his Hollywood heel persona, rather than having him come out in the red and yellow "Real American" babyface attire...

#3 The mastermind behind Survivor Series

Hogan is one of the most intelligent minds in the business

Irrespective of whether you happen to love the chaos of the RAW vs. SmackDown brand clashes at Survivor Series, or dislike the breakneck speed at which the proceedings cause confusion and mayhem at the annual PPV; the fact remains that Survivor Series is indeed one of the most exciting WWE events of a given calendar year!

This year's edition of WWE Survivor Series is set to transpire at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California on November 18th. With Kurt Angle having led Team RAW at Survivor Series 2017, one would think that appointing Hulk Hogan as the team captain would mean that he'd have to actually get in the ring and wrestle, akin to how Angle did.

Well, that isn't the case here. The WWE could likely book Hogan to simply guide Team RAW; chiming in with his masterful advice, and devising a strategy for the red brand to defeat Team SmackDown at the WWE's "Big 4" PPV, Survivor Series, which is a little more than 2 weeks away...

#2 Superhero meets superhero

Superhero Hogan meets superhero Strowman

Brooke Hogan perhaps said it best, when she noted that her father, Hulk, always encouraged children to take their vitamins and say their prayers. Brooke strongly emphasized that Hogan has always been a real-life superhero to children all over the world right from the time Hulk rose to notoriety back in the 1980s.

Truth be told -- Father Time waits for no one -- and be that as it may, Hogan still seems to be blessed with infinite charisma which makes the millions and millions of Hulkamaniacs all around the globe love him to the moon and back.

The WWE's RAW brand currently has one of the most popular superhero-esque characters in recent professional wrestling history -- none other than The Monster Among Men, Braun Strowman. Fans can expect the WWE to book Hogan in an angle with Strowman, where the latter at first rejects Hogan's advice, only to eventually recruit the veteran's services, and have The Hulkster guide him as his manager...

#1 Special Guest Referee at WrestleMania 35

Charlotte Flair is rumored to be facing Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 35

Alright, this may very well be one of the most essential storylines the WWE could possibly pull off with Hulk Hogan as part of the man's latest return to the promotion. Gimmick matches are a staple of the professional wrestling world, and seldom is a gimmick match more intriguing than when a legend is booked to act as the "Special Guest Referee" in said matchup.

It's no secret that the WWE plans on having a match between reigning RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey and current SmackDown Superstar Charlotte Flair headline WrestleMania 35 next year.

Well, what better way to raise the stakes, than having an icon like Hulk Hogan act as Special Guest Referee for The Rowdy One vs. The Queen?

Regardless of whether Rousey or Flair wins the matchup, Hogan being featured in the showdown would truly help the match reach a crescendo, thereby adding another layer to mysticism and grandiose to Rousey vs. Flair on The Grandest Stage Of Them All!
