Hulk Hogan Accuses Wrestlers Who Refuse To Accept His Apology Of Failing To Understand The Brotherhood Of Wrestling

Hulk Hogan was the very first guest on Bill Apter’s brand new The Apter Chat podcast. Hogan discussed his return to the WWE and went into detail about communications he had with both Triple H and Vince McMahon. He was apologetic throughout the vast majority of the show regarding the racially charged incident that led to his firing; but, as the podcast headed towards its conclusion added,

“A lot of people accepted my apology. And a lot of people heard what they wanted to hear and a lot of the narrative that came out of the meeting was on point. A lot of the narrative was really different. I was surprised to hear some people interpreted what I said that I was just sorry I got caught on camera, or whatever they interpreted, but I never said that.”

Hogan continued,

“I just hope the brotherhood can get back to the way it was. Outside the ring, you’re supposed to protect your brother. In this case, it’s a situation where 75, 80, 90 percent of the wrestlers are protecting me and they’re giving me another chance to move forward. There’s just a few wrestlers that kinda like don’t understand the bond and the brotherhood of wrestling. If someone makes a mistake, you need to forgive them and move on and try to let them prove themselves.”
