RAF and WWE Pay Tribute to Hulk Hogan<\/h2>\n\nReal American Freestyle (RAF) joins World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) for a moving video tribute to the late commissioner Hulk Hogan. This tribute will be broadcast as part of RAF’s inaugural event this Saturday.\n\nHogan, recognized for propelling the then-World Wrestling Federation to fame in the 1980s, passed away on July 24 at the age of 71. The event, which will take place at the Wolstein Center in Cleveland, will be broadcast via FOX Nation.\n\nMonths before his passing, Hogan shared his enthusiasm with The Associated Press about RAF, his new company co-founded with Chad Bronstein.\n\n\n
\n\n

\u201cI was super proud,\u201d Bronstein said. \u201cHe has been a great friend, mentor, and business partner. And his voice will be very present, this league will find unique ways to make him part of it.\u201d<\/p>\n\nChad Bronstein<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nRAF and WWE maintain a cordial relationship. Real American Beer, RAF’s main sponsor, is 10% owned by WWE and was also co-founded by Bronstein.\n\n\n

\n\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t compete with them,\u201d Bronstein said about RAF\u2019s relationship with WWE. \u201cThey support us a lot. There is no competition because they are two totally different groups. The same goes for UFC, we are not competition.\u201d<\/p>\n\nChad Bronstein<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nKurt Angle, American Olympic gold medalist and one of the most important WWE stars of the early 2000s, will provide commentary. Bronstein revealed that Hogan suggested Angle’s participation. Former WWE manager Jimmy Hart and former world champion John Layfield will also participate in Saturday’s event.\n\nThe main event will be the match between Wyatt Hendrickson and Mostafa Aly Elsayed Gabr Elders, from Egypt.
