It's official. Hulk Hogan is back in the WWE.
Arguably the biggest star in the history of professional wrestling, Hulk Hogan is returning to the WWE to host the 30th anniversary of Wrestlemania to be held on April 6 in New Orleans according to Fox News.
The 60-year-old wrestling icon will appear on Raw this Monday night aired on the USA Network and "WWE Raw Backstage Pass" on WWE Network on the same night.
On Friday, Hogan told The Associated Press as quoted by Foxnews.com: "I definitely want to stay here in the WWE. I just can't see myself ever being anywhere else. This is home. It always has been home. In the twilight of my career, what a great way to be part of the final hurrah for Hulk Hogan and all the Hulkamaniacs."
Hogan's last appearance in a WWE event was in December 2007 for 'Raw.'
His return to the WWE is in time for the 30th anniversary of the event he singlehandedly put on the wrestling map. Hogan was the main draw in the first Wrestlemania and is credited for making it a household name. He has faced a long list of distinguished opponents like Andre The Giant, Randy Savage, Ultimate Warrior, The Rock, and even WWE chairman Vince McMahon in this event.
However, he confirmed that there is no plan for him to return as a full-time wrestler. He said: "Right now, it's not in the plans. But like they say in the WWE, never say never."
The WWE Hall of Famer will be making his fourth stint with the company. Said Triple H: "It's time for him to come home." He added: "I don't think there's ever been a doubt that Hulk Hogan was, in some way, a WWE commodity."
