WWE Raw star Mustafa Ali has claimed he was nearly given Hulk Hogan’s music for a new gimmick.
On Monday, Ali tweeted about how he wanted to be a message for his fans, and revealed in the past he has tried to tone himself down in an attempt to be more marketable.
i’ve always found myself toning down who i am to be more “marketable”…and because of that i find myself trying to find myself.

In response to this, a fan suggested it would have been cool to see Ali come out to Hulk Hogan’s music as a message that anyone can be a real American, regardless of their background.
Responding to this fan, Mustafa Ali revealed that was once the plan.
…at one point that was the plan! https://t.co/5PtuE1J9kc
