The last time the Hall of Famer appeared on WWE TV was during the Crown Jewel event in October 2019. He led a team of five WWE stars – Roman Reigns, Rusev, Shorty G, Ricochet and Mustafa Ali against Team Flair which had Randy Orton, Bobby Lashley, King Corbin, Shinsuke Nakamura and Drew McIntyre. Team Hogan won the match. 

According to Johnson, WWE has been discussing the creative aspect of the Super ShowDown event. He said that there is no news on how the six-time WWE World Champion will be incorporated into the event. Hogan will also be inducted into WWE’s Hall Of Fame for the second time in April.
