Watching Hulk Hogan get annihilated with boos while trying to sell his ripoff Bud Light beer was effing IN-CREDIBLE. And I grew up a Hulkamaniac.

Denise Salcedo was in attendance, and she commented on the boos.
Not sure if it’s coming through on TV but a huge portion of the live audience is booing Hulk Hogan and or not choosing to cheer.

Elijah Burke also shared his thoughts on Hogan's appearance.
Hahaha… Hogan thought Cali was gonna 4get? Hogan screwed Hogan because while this was @WWE Netflix Debut, they should’ve waited until they got to a “Red State” to bring on Hogan who was overly boisterous & opinionated during the presidential election. --#WWEonNetflix #WWERaw

Alexis Littlefoot focused on the way that Hogan was booed while the American flag was waving behind him.
