Hulk Hogan has made appearances for WWE throughout the year, including a promo package for WWE Royal Rumble. He's also been featured in WWE advertising, most notably as part of Fanatics Fest NYC.
Hogan said in October 2023 that he had re-signed with WWE.
Speaking to Logan Paul on Impaulsive, Hogan gave further insight into his WWE deal and current relationship with the company.
"Working with Vince (McMahon) for all that time, and now working with Nick Khan. I signed a five-year deal. I'm 71 years old in a few weeks. I signed a five-year deal for the licensing and merchandising stuff, and ambassador stuff, if they need me to do something for WrestleMania. I just love doing it. It's definitely different," he said.
Hogan noted that he was involved more creatively when he was active and Vince was still around before turning his attention to Khan's practices.
"What I feel with the leadership is working with Nick Khan now. He's more, for me, business cut and dry. He doesn't overthink the creative. Nick Khan is strictly business. I said, 'Hey brother, this art work that hasn't been used for 35 years. I need it for my Real American Beer.' Nick Khan says, 'Let me get back to you in a couple of days.' 'No rush.' He calls me back, we talked, I don't want to give numbers, 'You can use the artwork. I need X amount of percentage out of every million bucks you make.' Instead of me paying you guys hundreds and thousands of dollars, and potentially millions of dollars, I can go out for $300 bucks and have someone do this artwork that is reasonably similar, maybe reasonably confusing. Nick goes, 'Let me just give it to you.' Good, we're on same team, brother. Nick was really cool. He made it really easy on me. Vince was great, too, but I don't know if Vince would make that quick of a decision. Nick has been very easy, supportive, and helpful," said Hogan.
Hogan launched his Real American Beer in June.
He was recently trolled at an appearance to promote the beer.
