The news that was leaked and then later confirmed by the WWE, that Hulk Hogan will be making his WWE return this week has had the mainstream media abuzz. In my opinion, this is rightfully so.

In my mind, Hogan and his 24 inch pythons always belonged along side Vince McMahon and in the WWE. I remember when he moved to WCW, and it just never felt right to me – and it wasn’t just the heel turn that make me feel that way.

I was a huge WCW mark back then, and bringing the “Immortal” one into the Turner camp should have been amazing – and for many it was. For me however, it just never felt right. Hogan belonged in orange and yellow and not black and white.

Even more recently when the Hulkster was with TNA, my gut always felt that he was out of place. I mean Hogan helped put WWE a step above everyone else. Who could ever forget the night Hogan did the impossible and body slammed Andre the Giant?

When they started referring to the business as being sports entertainment, Hogan fit the definition perfectly. Why else would Fox News, CNN, TMZ, the Los Angeles Times, USA Today, and several others be covering the news of Hogan’s WWE return? It’s huge entertainment news.

Some things in life just need to happen. Many professional ball players sign a 1 day contract and retire with the team where they made their fame and spent most of their career. To me, this is what Vince and Hulk are doing here.

Doing it just before Wrestlemania 30, the Super Bowl of our business is a classy, and not to mention potentially hugely profitable, decision by all parties

And that is good for THE business and the fans.
