Hulk Hogan's recent appearance on WWE RAW received a strikingly cold welcome. According to former WWE star EC3, this reception is different from that of Vince McMahon for a simple reason.
Over the years, several WWE legends have had accusations made against them. Hogan has been in a similar boat at times, which has affected his prominence among fans. Vince McMahon has also been embroiled in a messy matter with a former employee, with some serious allegations against him.
However, fans seemed to dislike Hogan's entrance on RAW last night much more than Vince McMahon's past appearances. Speaking on Sportskeeda's UnSKripted, EC3 shared his opinion on the topic. The former WWE star stated that McMahon's appearances were unexpected, whereas Hogan's was reported, thereby giving the fans a chance to prepare.
"One thing with the Hogan deal is, 'reported about this,' people really reined it in, that pot is boiling, it's tea kettle steaming and they are just waiting to explode. Whereas the only thing with the Vince situation would be they were not expecting him to come out and that music hits and you are like, what?" [20:34 onwards]
It remains to be seen what Hulk Hogan's next step will be, and whether he will appear in WWE again soon.
