As seen during the Netflix premiere of WWE RAW on January 6th 2025, Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan cut a promo with longtime manager Jimmy Hart to hype up the event and promote his Real American Beer product. Hogan said the following…

“In the past, I’ve had a whole bunch of partners down the line. I had incredible partners, like the Macho Man Randy Savage. I’ve had giant-sized partners like Andre the Giant. But the greatest partner the WWE has ever had, is the fact that tonight, we’re making history, and the WWE has tag teamed up with Netflix, the greatest tag team partner of all time.”

Despite praising the fans, Hogan was largely booed during the segment. According to people in attendance, there were “F*** Hulk Hogan” chants and Hogan was also booed in a pre-taped commercial for Saturday’s Night Main Event.

The crowd’s negative reaction to Hogan received mainstream news coverage. Deadline, Newsweek, and Variety were among the outlets that covered the story.
