Hulk Hogan not appearing at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event this weekend
Sources within WWE have confirmed that Hulk Hogan will not be appearing as scheduled for Saturday Night’s Main Event tomorrow night in San Antonio.
This was first reported by Chris Featherstone. Hogan had been the key person in all the commercials for the show.
Featherstone’s report of a family-related reason for Hogan missing the show is also accurate. This had nothing to do with his being booed in Los Angeles or at every arena where the Saturday Night’s Main Event commercial played, or Jesse Ventura or any other reason in that direction.
Frost Bank Center in San Antonio is hosting Saturday’s show, which will air live on NBC and Peacock starting at 8 p.m. Eastern time.
