A New Wrestling Revolution: Fox Nation Teams with Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff for Groundbreaking League

Published: 25th July ‘2025. the English Chronicle Desk . the English Chronicle Online.

In a ground breaking move that could reshape the future of professional wrestling on television, Fox Nation has officially acquired the exclusive broadcast and streaming rights to the upcoming wrestling league founded by none other than Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff—two of the most iconic and controversial figures in wrestling history.

The announcement, made on Wednesday at a press event in Los Angeles, has sparked intense excitement among wrestling fans and entertainment insiders alike, signalling a new era that blends nostalgia with a modern, high-octane vision for sports entertainment.

A Power Duo Reunited
Hulk Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, is perhaps the most recognizable figure in professional wrestling history. With his red-and-yellow persona, signature handlebar mustache, and larger-than-life charisma, Hogan dominated the wrestling world in the 1980s and 1990s, becoming a global pop culture phenomenon. From main-eventing the first-ever WrestleMania to his shocking heel turn with the NWO in WCW, Hogan’s career has shaped the very fabric of wrestling entertainment.

Teaming up once again with long-time collaborator Eric Bischoff—former WCW President and one of the most innovative minds in wrestling television—Hogan is entering the ring of entrepreneurship and creative production with their new, yet-to-be-named wrestling league.

“It’s about giving fans the show they’ve always deserved,” Hogan said at the press event, donning his classic bandana and sunglasses. “We’re bringing in young talent, old-school storytelling, and production values that are going to blow the roof off the industry. Brother, it’s going to be wild!”

Bischoff echoed the sentiment, calling the new promotion “a hybrid of everything that made wrestling great over the last forty years, packaged for today’s streaming-first, global audience.”

What Fox Nation is Promising
Fox Nation, the subscription-based streaming arm of Fox News Media, has in recent years expanded beyond political content into true crime, lifestyle, and now, live sports entertainment. This is the platform’s first major venture into professional wrestling, and executives are betting big.

“We see this as a long-term partnership,” said Jason Klarman, president of Fox Nation. “We’re offering a platform where legends like Hogan and Bischoff can unleash their vision, with weekly episodic content, pay-per-view style specials, and extensive behind-the-scenes features. This isn’t just wrestling—it’s a full-scale entertainment universe.”

According to initial reports, the league will launch in early 2026, with the first live event scheduled for March. Fox Nation plans to air a docu-series in the months leading up to the debut, giving fans an inside look at the building of the league, the recruitment of talent, and the creative process behind the matches and storylines.

What Sets This League Apart?
While the league’s name and full roster have yet to be revealed, insiders suggest that the Hogan-Bischoff league will blend traditional wrestling psychology with modern cinematic presentation. Think less about the sterile arenas and more about immersive storytelling, with elements borrowed from action films, reality television, and even digital gaming.

The league is expected to have a strong emphasis on character development and long-term narratives—something many fans feel has been lacking in the current wrestling landscape dominated by WWE and AEW.

“We’re not trying to copy anyone,” Hogan insisted. “We’re building something new, with respect for the past and eyes on the future. This isn’t nostalgia. It’s evolution.”

A New Stage for Young and Old Talent
One of the more intriguing elements of the new promotion is its rumored roster. While Hogan himself is unlikely to wrestle due to age and injury history, sources say he will play a key on-screen role—likely as a league commissioner or mentor figure.

Meanwhile, younger and unsigned independent wrestlers are being actively scouted, and some former WWE, AEW, and TNA stars are reportedly in discussions. Bischoff has hinted at international partnerships as well, with potential crossover appearances from Japanese and Mexican wrestling promotions.

The league will also experiment with digital interactivity—allowing fans to influence match outcomes, vote on storyline directions, and even participate in live events through augmented reality and mobile apps.

Wrestling Returns to Its Roots, But Grows Global
Wrestling fans are hopeful that the Hogan-Bischoff venture will recapture some of the magic that made wrestling must-see TV during the Monday Night Wars era. But it’s clear that this is not a mere nostalgia trip. It’s a bold leap into the future, backed by major media muscle.

Industry analysts say this move could challenge the existing duopoly in American wrestling and open the door for more alternative promotions with high production value.

“Fox Nation’s entry into wrestling is not just smart business—it’s a signal that the mainstream media now recognizes wrestling as a cultural force once again,” said media analyst Colin Ramirez. “And with Hogan and Bischoff, you have two men who know how to stir the pot and pull in a crowd.”

What’s Next
The coming months will be crucial. Fox Nation is expected to begin releasing teaser content, character promos, and production updates throughout late 2025. If early interest is any indicator, Hulk Hogan may once again find himself at the center of wrestling’s most talked-about revolution.

And if history has shown us anything, when Hogan and Bischoff team up, the wrestling world takes notice.

One final word from the Hulkster himself at the press conference:
“Whatcha gonna do… when a new wrestling era runs wild on you?”
