Hulk Hogan Shocks WWE Universe With His Appearance On “WWE Raw”

As WWE Raw marks its 30th anniversary on Monday, January 23, 2023, the Monday night program (popularly called “Monday Night Raw”) which made its debut in January 1993, kicked things off with the legendary Hulk Hogan.

All through last week’s episode of Monday Night Raw, Friday Night SmackDown, and NXT, there’s been serious publicity made on these shows regarding Raw’s 30 years anniversary.

Highlights of what the past and present superstars of the WWE Company did on Raw throughout its existence were featured repeatedly. It was also announced that some of the G.O.A.T of WWE would grace the occasion but, never in a million years did the WWE Universe expect the show to kick off the way it did.

Hulk Hogan — Hulk Hogan Kicked Off “RAW Is XXX”

The program which was titled “RAW Is XXX” took place at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA. That’s not the best part. The best part of the show was who kicked it off, Hulk Hogan!!

Immediately it was time for the show, Hogan’s entrance song hit the ears of the WWE Universe and they exploded with joy when the two-time Hall of Famer, 69, appeared in the arena in the company of Jimmy Hart, aka the “Mouth of the South.”

Now, I know what you’re thinking so I’ll tell you what you wanna know. Yes, Hogan welcomed the WWE Universe to Monday Night Raw. But then, something happened while Hogan was narrating the story of how Monday Night Raw came to be. His microphone kept cutting off.

Hogan was in the middle of his story when one of the WWE workers came to where he was taking and changed his mic for him.

But of course, it can’t be Hogan out there if he didn’t ask his “Hulkmaniacs” his signature question “What You Gon Do When Hulkmania, 30 years of Monday Night Raw, and those Philadelphia Eagles run wild on you brother?”

Hulk Hogan — Roman Reigns Held A Tribal Court For Sami Zayn On RAW Is XXX

After the “One and Only, The Immortal” Hulk Hogan left the arena, “RAW Is XXX” kicked off properly with the arrival of the “Tribal Chief” Roman Reigns, in the company of “Wise Man” Paul Heyman, Solo Sikoa, “The Bloodline” Jimmy and Jay USO, and “Honorary UCE” Sami Zayn.

The “Head of the Table” Roman, held the first ever “Tribal Court” to decide the fate of Sami in the bloodline. This was done because Sami arrived late to rescue Roman and the “Bloodline” last week on “Friday Night SmackDown” during the contract signing for the WWE Undisputed Universal Heavyweight Championship between Kevin Owens and Roman Reigns. The match will take place come this Saturday at WWE Royal Rumble, 2023.

During Sami’s trial, Paul Heyman played four different video clips tagged “PROTECTION EXHIBIT A-D” for Roman Reigns. All four clips gave evidence showing that Sami had been against the bloodline from the onset. Paul then went on to pronounce Sami “Guilty as charged.”

Sami expressed his hurt that Paul would call him guilty, and provide those tapes against him even after always telling him (Sami) “I love you, Sami.” Sami then told Roman that he would not defend himself from those accusations. Out of anger that Sami wouldn’t defend himself out of “Ego,” Roman sent Solo to hit Sami with the Samoan Spike.

The moment Solo was about to land the Samoan Spike on Sami, he was stopped by Jay USO who told Roman to hold on while he plays his own tapes in defense of Sami.

Jay went on to play 5 different tapes which he tagged “DEFENSE EXHIBIT A-E” all of which prove that Sami was not guilty. After Roman saw the evidence, he pronounced Sami “Not Guilty, For Now.”
