As WWE ushers in the Netflix era of Raw, they’re adding even more sponsors to their kitty. As of today, the company has agreed on terms with Hulk Hogan‘s Real American Beer. It’s a multi-year deal that’ll see the Hogan co-founded beer logo being featured in the corners of the ring mat during every episode of Raw moving forward.
More details can be fetched by the following press release. Last year, WWE struck a similar partnership with Logan Paul‘s PRIME brand. The energy drink has since been a regular occurrence on WWE programming, be it on the ring mat or a mini PRIME stall at ringside. It’d be safe to assume that The Hulkster’s Real American Beer will receive the exact treatment, if not more.
Ahead of tonight’s debut of Raw on Netflix, the WWE Hall of Famer was seen wearing a MAGA T-shirt, which had President-elect Donald Trump, Vice President-elect JD Vance, and Hogan’s own name engraved on it. That tee is obviously not available on the WWE shop. Hulk’s last on-screen appearance came when Raw celebrated its 30 years of existence in January 2023.
And despite being discussed to appear at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December, the 71-year-old ended up not being on the show. Instead, he accompanied Colby Covington to the octagon at the UFC Tampa event that same night. As per a recent report, WWE has discussed bringing the retired wrestler for future appearances.
The one he’s having on the Netflix premiere of Raw is a part of it. Moreover, the former NWO member had previously revealed that he’s signed a new five-year contract with WWE that’s part of his legends deal. It’d be interesting to see how often the promotion uses him on camera.
Fans slam WWE for linking up with Hulk Hogan’s Real American Beer
As is quite often the case with Hulk Hogan, none of his collaborations with WWE sit well with the fans. Voicing their displeasure at WWE’s brand-new shake of hands with Hogan’s beer brand, the netizens believe that the company wouldn’t be able to beat the allegations of racism as they continue bolstering their ties with him.
Some are even arguing about Hulk’s undeniable impact on pro wrestling as a whole. A few of the informed peeps relayed that the more sponsorships WWE could get on board, the more money they’d make off them.
One gave a hilarious reason behind Steve Austin‘s no-show on Raw, joking that WWE asked him to chug Hogan’s Real American Beers, which he denied. For the unversed, Stone Cold runs a beer company of his own.
