As noted, Hulk Hogan was among the speakers at the official WWE press conference in Tampa, Florida last week to formally announce WrestleMania 36 coming to Raymond James Stadium in 2020.
While at the WWE press event, the WWE Hall Of Famer spoke with Jim Varsallone of The Miami Herald for an interview. Featured below are some of the highlights.
On dealing with bullies growing up: “It’s really cool to be here because when I talk to boys clubs it’s mainly about accountability, and stepping up and owning it, good or bad, but today is a little bit different subject, it’s about bullying, and so many of us, such as me having the largest head in elementary school, and I was so far when I was a kid, I’d go to the beach and I was the only one that didn’t take my shirt off. I got bullied a lot, and some of these kids don’t realize this, a lot of the other WWE Superstars got bullied. So, we got a lot in common. So, to share our stories and let these kids know they’re not in it alone, is a major deal, brother.”
On what it is like being back in WWE after all that happened: “Well, it’s really cool to be back. I’m in and out all the time. I started in 1977, 1978 for Vince’s father, and I’ve quit, I’ve been fired, I quit, I’ve been fired. But it’s great to be back, you know? It’s just really fun being home with these guys, it’s really, really cool.”
