Brooke Hogan claims she wasn’t on the guest list for WWE’s “Monday Night Raw” tribute to her late father, Hulk Hogan.
The former reality star clapped back at fans “giving [her] crap” for missing the event, two days after the wrestler was honored with a 10-bell salute and touching video.

“@wwe did not extend an invite,” Brooke wrote via Instagram Stories on Wednesday
WWE did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Brooke’s brother, Nick Hogan, was notably present at Monday’s special alongside his wife, Tana Lea.
The duo dressed in funereal black outfits and were spotted getting visibly emotional during the tribute.
Hulk, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, died on July 24 at age 71 after going into cardiac arrest.
Nick, 35, honored the late athlete two days later, calling Hulk his “mentor” and “best friend” in a lengthy Instagram statement.
He allegedly was the one to inform Brooke of their dad’s passing.
Brooke, who has been estranged from her father for years, broke her silence Tuesday.
“Our bond has never broken, not even in his final moments,” she clarified to her social media followers. “We had a connection deeper than words, one that spanned lifetimes.
“We shared a quiet, sacred bond, one that could be seen and felt by anyone who witnessed us together,” Brooke continued. “When he left this earth, it felt like part of my spirit left with him. I felt it before the news even reached us.”
Brooke reportedly asked to be removed from Hulk’s will in 2023 to avoid becoming involved in a financial mess after his death.
She will, however, receive funds from a life insurance trust, which she plans to put towards her kids’ college funds, according to TMZ.
The “Hogan Knows Best” alum is the mother of twins Oliver and Molly, 6 months, with her husband, Steven Olesky.
