Earlier today, the WWE Chairman, Vince McMahon, received an urgent phone call from Hulk Hogan.
Hogan said that there’s a possibility that he has a cracked meniscus, which in turn could possibly prevent him from appearing on RAW this Monday night in Memphis, next week’s RAW in Charlottesville and even SummerSlam.

Hulk Hogan will have an MRI tonight at a Miami hospital to determine the extent of the injury which is in his right knee (his good one).

"It started about two weeks ago, like a toothache," Hogan said, "the joint on the outside of the knee. I was complaining to my son Nick that it was killing me all the time. I have been on the road with my daughter Brooke and haven't been able to work out my legs like I should."
Hogan added: "Yesterday, I did a couple of leg exercises at a gym. When I got home, I sat on my new couch and it was like sitting in a hole. When I got up, it sounded like a snap, an explosion in the kneecap. I can stand and walk a bit, but its hard for me to sit and get up and down the stairs."

Hogan was despondent that he might not compete against the Legend Killer Randy Orton. The RAW roster is currently in Australia, and due to the time difference in Australia, Randy Orton was not available for comment.

Hulk Hogan is arguably the greatest WWE Legend of all time, and if his injury prevents him from competing against Randy Orton at SummerSlam, there is no doubt he will see him sometime in the future.

I hope the guy's ok but from wwe's perspective they better start building some sort of backup angle for summerslam

Wow, considering this is supposed to be the biggest match of SummerSlam this could be bad news for WWE. PLO is right, they better prepare a backup plan in case Hogan isn't able to compete at SS.

Maybe he found out he had to job to Orton and his knee "suddenly" started to hurt.

I'd be pissed if he back out only because it be my first time ever seeing Hogan wrestle since I only got into wrestling around the Attitude era. I just want to be part of the electricity in the crowd when that music came on.
