— Rumors continue to swirl that WWE will be bringing back Hulk Hogan to WWE TV, perhaps the GM of Smackdown. As noted before, with Daniel Bryan ready to join the roster as an active wrestler and now Shane McMahon out of action indefinitely, Smackdown will have no authority figure.
— If and when Hogan returns, it will likely be in April as WWE usually waits until after WrestleMania to make these types of announcements. In fact, there’s a good chance that whatever direction WWE takes with the authority figure role Smackdown won’t be revealed until after WrestleMania.
