Hulk Hogan credited WWE for cooperating with him

Hulk Hogan runs beach shops from where wrestling fans can purchase WWE and WCW merchandise. These shops are located in Clearwater and Orlando, and in the same interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling, Hogan spoke about the importance of having his own business.

The Hulkster said that due to the unpredictability of the business, he wanted to open his own stores where he could sell his merchandise. Hulk Hogan also added that the Stamford-based promotion had been very cooperative with him. Due to their support, Hogan is also able to sell merchandise of nWo and other WWE Superstars at his beach shops.

"Basically, it's something that I wanted to do because with me bouncing around between the WCW and the WWE, never knowing where you're gonna end up in this wrestling business, I wanted to have something solid that I could sell my Hulkamania stuff because the people still want it. It's really great because the WWE's been very, very cooperative, and they've been a great partner because I get the nWo stuff in there and I've got a lot of the John Cena stuff. All the different WWE Superstars, I sell a lot of their stuff in there," said Hogan. [5:23 – 6:04]
