Colaboradores
Vince McMahon, the former chairman of WWE, has given a rare interview for a TMZ special, marking his first televised appearance since allegations of sexual abuse and trafficking surfaced earlier this year. The special focuses on the life and career of Hulk Hogan, who recently passed away at the age of 71.
McMahon's Reaction to Hogan's Last WWE Appearance
The TMZ special, titled "TMZ Presents: The Real Hulk Hogan," features McMahon recalling Hulk Hogan's final appearance on WWE's "Monday Night Raw" on January 6. The crowd in Los Angeles booed Hogan, and McMahon expressed his anger at the reaction. "I was angry," McMahon said in a teaser clip. "He deserved much more."
Hogan's last appearance coincided with Raw's debut on Netflix and the crowd's negative reaction was attributed by some to Hogan's political views. Hogan himself suggested that politics played a role in his reception.
A Difficult Time for McMahon
This interview is particularly noteworthy because it is McMahon's first since Janel Grant filed a lawsuit alleging that he sexually abused and trafficked her during her time at WWE. McMahon has denied these allegations and is currently contesting the suit.
