Sat Jan 25 06:30:00 IST 2025: ## Hulk Hogan Pulls Out of WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event Due to Family Emergency
**SAN ANTONIO, TX** – WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan will not be appearing at this Saturday’s Saturday Night’s Main Event in San Antonio, Texas. The news, initially reported by Dr. Chris Featherstone and confirmed by Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, cites a family commitment as the reason for Hogan’s last-minute absence.
Hogan’s appearance had been heavily promoted following the show’s recent primetime debut on NBC. While he was notably booed during a recent appearance at a Raw taping in Los Angeles, WWE reportedly planned to use him in San Antonio regardless. Meltzer suggests that while the family emergency explanation is credible, the intense negative reaction to Hogan’s presence at previous events might have played a role in the decision. The article notes speculation on whether the negative reception was regionally specific or more widespread.
The absence leaves the San Antonio crowd without the legendary wrestler, prompting humorous speculation online. The WWE has not yet issued an official statement on Hogan’s withdrawal.
