10 Shocking AEW Behind The Scenes Revelations

Whatcha gonna do, brother, when you and your ex-wife get completely blackballed by AEW?

While some may view him as the biggest star the wrestling business has ever seen, more recent years have seen Hulk Hogan continue to chip away at his own legacy. Sure, it's one thing to hear how Hogan politicked his way into changing match results or squashing pushes behind the scenes, but it's absolutely something else to hear of the Hulkster using racist language and seemingly not being all that bothered about it.

Hulk may have been booted out of the WWE Hall of Fame when his use of such language became public, but Vince McMahon would of course reinstate Hogan - not to mention induct him for a second time as part of the nWo - and pretend as if all of this never actually happened. Heck, even when 13-time World Champion was supposed to make an apology to WWE talents in a backstage meeting prior to a TV taping, the moral of Hogan's story was effectively along the lines of "video phones are everywhere now, be careful about getting caught saying horrible racist BS".

Thankfully, in a June 2020 tweet to Hogan's ex-wife Linda - as she herself made some truly horrendous comments - Tony Khan revealed that both Hulk and Linda are banned from AEW.
