WWE 2K16: We do not need racist comments

Hulk Hogan will definitely not be part of this year’s WWE game – the veteran wrestler’s ties have been cut with WWE due to his racist remarks. This has been pushed forward as far as removing him entirely from the website, as well as any items featuring him from the webshop, leaving no traces behind whatsoever, making him seem like never being part of the WWE.

Why did this happen? Simple: he used the N-word towards someone, who was dating his daughter. This word is also heard in the leaked… adult tape several times. Racism is not tolerated by WWE, so despite WWE 2K16 looking forward to have an expanded roster up to 120 characters, Hulk Hogan will not be one of them.

So in a short timeframe, a second person being involved in videogames gets caught redhanded: remember, Tiger Woods isn’t the flagship character for the PGA Tour games anymore, and now this happens. No pardon is to be had here. Let’s face it: it’s not okay to be racist in any way!
