Hulk Hogan accompanies Colby Covington to the Octagon at UFC on ESPN 63
While many thought Hulk Hogan would be part of the return of Saturday Night’s Main Event last night, the Hulkster had another gig planned…with another TKO Group company by the initials of UFC.
Hogan walked out with UFC fighter Colby Covington and former fighter Chael Sonnen for his fight against Joaquin Buckley in the main event of UFC on ESPN 63. Hulk’s WWE theme song Real American was used for the entrance, with Hogan carrying and waving the American flag along the way.
“A trio you didn’t know you needed,” the UFC X account posted along with the video. “An epic walk out for @ColbyCovMMA!”
Covington cupped his ears the way Hogan did before he walked into the cage, although unfortunately for him, he lost the fight.
The show took place from the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida.

came out to zero pop a dead crowd hahaha and then grover covvoingten gets beatin so bad a doctor had to save him yup maga is real
A shame how the corrupt disgraceful referees conspired against this great patriotic fighter. Hoping that Mr. White reverses the decision. Great gesture from the iconic real American Hulk Hogan gracing the fans with his presence though.
Ha! Good for Covington, whoever that was. I wish he never hired him to escort him all the way to the Octagon. It’s a waste of talent and money. He’s a loser, just like me, Hogan, and that USA idiot.
What a great entrance! Having Hulk Hogan accompany Colby brought a bit more excitement in the UFC. Only the low IQ crowd would criticize the UFC for pumping up the crowd with a wrestling legend.
Meanwhile, the WWE is getting roasted online for excluding the Hulkster from their SNME show, and deservedly so.
You’d think that as much as the male right frowns upon homosexuality, they’d refrain at least a little from anilingus on pretty much everyone that administers it to Orange Don. It’s like a human centipede that branches out. Poor Don, Hulk, and whoever this Colby dumbass is. A severely chapped anus is no joke…
But hey, stupid people need idols, not role models. That’s something that’ll never change.
