So, Hogan is back in the WWE Hall of Fame after three grueling years in exile. Talking about this whole situation is dicey at best and as your average white, middle-class guy from TX, I’d like to nope right the hell on out of most discussions about the man. However, the WWE has deemed it time to reinstate him, a move that came as a shock to many superstars and fans.
Regardless of what has possibly been said backstage, and behind closed doors, too mend fences, people have taken to Twitter to voice both their congratulations to Hogan and their outrage. For the most part, though, current and former wrestlers have been very supportive of Hogan being brought back into the fold.
So PUMPED to see My MAN @HulkHogan has been Reinstated where Belongs in the @WWE Hall of Fame! Terry Bollea was a True Champion for me my entire career? Thanks so Much for Everything Hulk? Love You Brother @BrendaKayPage #WWE #WWEHOF @DDPYoga #BANG DDPhttps://t.co/rvVVSbabV1

I like how the Blue Meanie thought having a black guy in the picture somehow might offset any potential racial implications that may come from supporting Hogan. Apparently, his racial tirade was not enough for a lifetime ban, but you know what is? Doing porn. Chyna’s Twitter has been sadly handing out congratulations to Hogan while attempting to piggyback their way into the HOF.
If Hulk Hogan can get back into the WWE Hall Of Fame, then I love our chances for Chyna! But it's up to her fans! Please tweet, facebook, e-mail everyone in the WWE Universe, and let them know it's time to let Chyna in!#TeamChyna #ChynaHOF #LetChynaIn @WWE pic.twitter.com/GSV1IcqQsD

That’s just sad.
However, many fans were not as psyched about Hogan’s return. I can’t post many of them here as they contain foul language. Some of it directed at Hogan and his supporters and others just directly quoting Hogan himself. That’s right. I can’t even put what Hogan said in this article because it’s too vulgar. However, I can give you some of the milder reactions.
Strong language ahead.
HULK HOGAN YOU LUCKY I DIDNT BREAK YOUR FUCKING LEG YOU FUCKING DUMB SON OF A BITCH
