Hulk Hogan appeared on WWE RAW's Netflix premiere

Hulk Hogan made his return to WWE programming when he showed up on RAW's Netflix debut. He appeared in front of the live crowd in Los Angeles alongside fellow Hall of Famer Jimmy Hart. Hogan was there to promote Real American Beer.

Hogan's return arguably didn't get the desired reaction from the audience. Despite delivering a babyface promo, The Hulkster was showered with loud boos. The legend hasn't been seen on WWE television since then, and some fans believe it is because of the negative response he received on RAW's Netflix premiere.
