— As noted recently, Hulk Hogan has been campaigning for a return to the ring, looking to secure a match at next year’s WrestleMania.
According to one source, there is nothing official in the works in WWE and Hogan is apparently “going into business for himself,” trying to drum up enough interest to warrant a return to the ring.
Hogan noted in recent media interviews that his back is no longer an issue, and that he would like to work with either John Cena or Steve Austin at WrestleMania 31.
— WWE sent out the following press release:
Tonight, WWE Network will premiere a new one-hour special, Journey to SummerSlam, at 8/7C.
Program Description:
As the Shield, they were the most dominant faction inside the ring, taking the entire WWE by storm. Now, the Hounds of Justice have disbanded, and all roads lead to SummerSlam.
