As noted earlier today, Hulk Hogan mentioned in a radio interview that his goal is to perform once again in a WWE ring, noting that he is training hard and is in the best shape of his life.
The mentality within WWE is that Hogan is a retired wrestler and is a contracted company employee that has a guaranteed money public relations and brand ambassador type contract that calls for a specific amount of dates per month, but leaves him not exclusive to the company, meaning he can call his own shots or outside endeavors.
