Hulk Hogan Wants To Join The Bullet Club

bullet club hulk hogan video join

The Bullet Club is one of the hottest acts in wrestling at the moment, and it sounds like Hulk Hogan has heard they’re interested in his services — because the wrestling legend says he wants to join.

Hogan appeared at a signing this weekend for Frank and Sons in Southern California’s City of Industry and an attendee asked Hulkster point blank if he’d ever join the BC.

Never shy about getting a payday … Hulk responded, “I would love to be in The Bullet Club. I’d love to be the OG for The Bullet Club.” Adding, “Teach dem boys how to really get corrupt!”

Earlier this year The Elite took part in YouTube Q&A and said Hulk Hogan and CM Punk are the only wrestlers left that they would probably let into the group.
