With rumors continuously heating up regarding Hulk Hogan's possible involvement at WWE's WrestleMania 30 pay-per-view event on April 6 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, WWE World Heavyweight Champion John Cena spoke about the possibility of Hogan returning in either a wrestling capacity or just on an appearance basis, and said that he'd like to see Hogan back in the WWE at WrestleMania.
"I grew up in the 80's as a fan of the old WWF," Cena told TMZ when asked about possibly facing off with Hogan at WrestleMania. "It would be a dream come true, but I certainly wouldn't want to put him in a situation to do something he's not physically capable of."
Hogan, who recently said that he would love to return to the WWE for WrestleMania said recently that he may not be capable of performing at the event, but that he would like to make an appearance or even go as a fan. Cena said if Hogan, 60, doesn't feel up to it he shouldn't partake in a match since the WWE is a fast-paced environment especially on its biggest night of the year.
"We operate at a high level of speed in the WWE nowadays," Cena told TMZ. "I think you can't have a WrestleMania 30 without Hulk Hogan. I really truly hope he's there in my heart of hearts because as WrestleMania turns 30 I think we need the Hulkster, but we'll see if we can get him there to do whatever he can do."
Cena, who wrestled The Rock in the main event of the last two WrestleManias much to many of the talents that regularly appear on the rosters' chagrin, was asked whether or not Hogan would be welcome back by the talent in WWE if he were to return.
"I'm speaking to you as a Hulkamaniac. To me he's always welcome," Cena said. "It's like kicking Santa Claus out of Christmas, you can't do it."
Hogan recently spoke about a possible return to the WWE's biggest event of the year, but told TMZ that he wants to bring his wife Jennifer to the event as a fan.
"I haven't been to WrestleMania for years," Hogan told TMZ. "My new wife Jennifer, she's never been to one brother. I'm gonna have to wear masks like Mil Mascaras and sit in the front row," he quipped.
All signs point to the fact that Hogan will be at WrestleMania 30, and he at least has the approval of Cena. While a match may be out of the realm of possibility, it would appear as though Hogan will at least be at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in some capacity.
