Hulk Hogan Confronted by Big Poppa Pump; Wants WrestleMania, 'Expendables' Shot

Listen up, all you Hulkamaniacs! Hulk Hogan is about to run wild again, all over the entertainment business. Hogan has mentioned recently that he wants to be a part of next year's WrestleMania 32 and to have a shot at a role as a heel in the possible upcoming new Expendables movie. The Hulkster also has received an invitation from Scott "Big Poppa Pump" Steiner, where Steiner confronted the legend to request meeting him in the squared circle over the summer.

Expendables 4 hasn't even officially been announced as of yet, but with Hogan having a good friend in creator Sylvester Stallone, he feels he can talk up the idea of himself to Sly about joining the cast as a bad guy. Uproxx tells of the conversation Hogan had talking about his Hollywood aspirations:

"Was talking on the phone with Sly [Stallone] about doing The Expendables 4. We're trying to figure out a way to maybe turn me into the most evil man in the world. Y'know, Stallone gave me my first break and he's been a great friend. We had a great conversation, talking about the possibilities. Can I still run, can I still jump? Well, not as fast or not as high, but I think Hollywood could find a good stunt man to help me out."

Before any of that can come about, Hogan is going to have to deal with Big Poppa Pump. Steiner issued a challenge for Hogan to come and wrestle him at the Legends of Wrestling event. He released the video challenge towards Hogan to Wrestling Inc with some good ole fighting words:

"June 7th, New York City, I'm saying you can't slam me, and I'm putting up a million dollars of my own money saying you can't," Steiner said. "You don't have to beat me, you have to slam me. But once you step through those ropes, I'm going to beat you up punk!"

Do you think Hogan would make a believable bad guy on the silver screen? Will Hogan take Steiner's offer and slam him this summer? Tell us your thoughts below.
