Brooke Hogan reveals she was not invited to WWE’s “Monday Night Raw” tribute to her father, Hulk Hogan.
The former reality star responded to fans criticizing her absence from the event, stating that “@wwe did not extend an invite,” on her Instagram Stories on Wednesday.
WWE did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Brooke’s brother, Nick Hogan, attended the special on Monday with his wife, Tana Lea, dressed in black and visibly emotional during the tribute.
Hulk, also known as Terry Gene Bollea, passed away on July 24 at the age of 71 after suffering cardiac arrest.
Nick, 35, paid tribute to his late father two days later, describing Hulk as his “mentor” and “best friend” in a heartfelt statement on Instagram.
He was the one to inform Brooke of their father’s passing.
Brooke, who had been estranged from her father for years, shared her thoughts on social media, stating, “Our bond has never broken, not even in his final moments. We had a connection deeper than words, one that spanned lifetimes.
“We shared a quiet, sacred bond, one that could be seen and felt by anyone who witnessed us together,” Brooke continued. “When he left this earth, it felt like part of my spirit left with him. I felt it before the news even reached us.”
Brooke reportedly asked to be removed from Hulk’s will in 2023 to avoid becoming involved in a financial mess after his death.
She will, however, receive funds from a life insurance trust, which she plans to put towards her kids’ college funds, according to TMZ.
The “Hogan Knows Best” alum is the mother of twins Oliver and Molly, aged 6 months, with her husband, Steven Olesky.
