Hulk Hogan’s Emmys ‘In Memoriam’ Broadcast Snub Was Political, Says Ex Linda

Hulk Hogan was among the many celebrities inexplicably disregarded of the Emmys “In Memoriam” broadcast section Sunday night time … and his ex-wife suspects it wasn’t a easy error.

Linda Hogan tells TMZ … she believes Hulk’s snub was political, as a result of his right-wing embrace and help later in life — together with talking on the RNC for President Trump final 12 months — regardless of the very fact the wrestling celebrity supported either side of the aisle.

Hulk was amongst just a few notable names not honored on the CBS present … others included horror icon Tony Todd and “Sopranos” star Jerry Adler. An Emmys rep identified all of them, together with Hulk, are included in an extended on-line model of the section … however it’s only a scroll of names with zero manufacturing worth, in contrast to the printed section.

Linda tells us, Hulk was a “rankings king” who was an icon on the small display screen for many years … and whether or not it was on community or pay-per-view, hordes of wrestling followers all the time tuned in to see Hulk.

And Linda factors out … by his stardom, Hulk opened the door for individuals who had been by no means wrestling followers to change into followers … ‘reason behind the power and goodwill he put on the market.

And whereas the Emmys aired on CBS, Linda factors out NBC particularly owes a substantial amount of respect and gratitude to Hulk … for the reason that community premiered “Saturday Evening’s Major Occasion” in 1985, the primary wrestling present on prime time that includes stars from what was then the WWF… and Hulk’s appearances made it a rankings success.
