Neither could make it to WWE’s first tribute on SmackDown the day after Hulk’s death, but his long-time friend & business partner, his son, and a team from Real American Beer made it to Detroit on July 28 for WWE’s second.

Eric Bischoff has spoken publicly for the first time following the sudden passing of his close friend, Hulk Hogan.

The open to Monday’s show was a second tribute to Hogan, who passed away on Thursday following cardiac arrest. Eric Bischoff, Nick Hogan, Hulk Hogan’s manager, and representatives from Real American Beer were seen on stage as Triple H said a few words about Hogan’s legacy. After that, a ten bell salute took place.
