Hulk Hogan To Speak This Monday On RAW, What Ric Flair Refuses To Autograph, Undertaker, Goldberg
- On ESPN.com's "Mint Condition," WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair explains the significance of doing an upcoming autograph show with Hulk Hogan; the strangest autograph request ever made of him; athletes, including LeBron James, he's admired over the years; and the memorabilia he's kept.
Flair said his strangest autograph request was to sign a baby and he refused to do it. He said that it's not due to lack of respect, but because he feels its inappropriate.
- Hulk Hogan, who is being advertised for Monday's RAW in San Antonio, Texas by the official website of the AT&T Center, has now been confirmed to appear on the live television broadcast on the USA Network.
During Friday's SmackDown on the WWE App, Byron Saxton announced that Hogan will be on the show (unlike this week, where he appeared after RAW concluded on the USA Network).
"I'm sure he'll be there donning his pink shirt, pink bandana, but what in the world will Hulk Hogan have to say live on RAW this Monday night?" Saxton asked. "We'll find out."
