Brooke Hogan has been officially removed from Hulk Hogan’s will and will not receive any money from his estate, according to TMZ reports. This decision dates back to 2023 when Brooke chose to step away from any involvement in the legal matters surrounding her late father’s assets. Meanwhile, WWE is ramping up preparations for SummerSlam 2025 with a WrestleMania-level stage construction underway at MetLife Stadium, signaling one of the biggest WWE productions in recent history.

Brooke Hogan’s removal from Hulk Hogan’s will became public in the wake of Hulk Hogan’s passing last week. Sources reveal that Brooke herself requested to be taken out of the will two years ago, distancing herself from the family’s legal and financial disputes. Her decision reportedly stemmed from a desire to grieve privately without the complexities of legal entanglements—a rare move considering the prominence of the Hogan legacy in professional wrestling. According to insiders close to the Hogan family, Brooke’s decision was respected by other family members, allowing the estate to proceed without her involvement or any financial claims from her side.

This development confirms that Brooke Hogan will not receive any inheritance from Hulk Hogan’s estate, marking a definitive chapter in the Hogan family saga. While Hulk Hogan had been one of wrestling’s most iconic figures, often spotlighting his family in various media, Brooke’s choice signifies a break from that tradition regarding estate matters. Several wrestling news outlets, including Wrestling Headlines and TMZ, have tracked this story closely, with no indications of any forthcoming legal challenges from Brooke.

In parallel with this family news, WWE is preparing for a colossal event with SummerSlam 2025 scheduled for August 2-3 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. For the first time in history, SummerSlam will be held over two nights, and WWE is investing heavily in a production scale rivaling WrestleMania. Early photos and footage from inside MetLife Stadium reveal a massive elevated stage featuring a long ramp, towering steel structures, and expansive lighting rigs designed to create a spectacle that matches the grandeur of WWE’s flagship event.

The construction work, which began just days ago, includes eight large vertical steel pillars supporting a high canopy over the ring area, set to house enormous video screens and lighting arrays. This setup departs from previous SummerSlam shows, which did not utilize such elaborate staging, especially since SummerSlam’s move to stadium venues in 2021. According to multiple wrestling news sources—Gerweck, PWMania, and WrestlingNews.co—this year’s stage is being built to offer fans both immersive visuals and a dynamic live experience befitting the two-night format.

WWE’s production team gave fans an exclusive behind-the-scenes look during the July 28 episode of Monday Night Raw, confirming the scale and ambition planned for SummerSlam 2025. The event also marks WWE’s return to MetLife Stadium, the site of WrestleMania 35 in 2019, bringing back several top stars from that landmark show. Roman Reigns, Randy Orton, Charlotte Flair, Drew McIntyre, and Becky Lynch are all slated to compete, underscoring the event’s high-profile card and star power.

“SummerSlam 2025 is shaping up to be one of the biggest premium live events in WWE history,” noted Colin Vassallo, editor of Wrestling-Online, highlighting how the production scope signals WWE’s commitment to elevating “The Biggest Party of the Summer.” The two-night structure allows for over six hours of action, including a lengthy pre-show and multiple marquee matches, promising surprises and moments that will resonate with wrestling fans worldwide.

Backstage sources within WWE have expressed excitement over the ambitious staging plans, with one insider telling Fightful, “WWE wants fans to feel like they’re experiencing WrestleMania energy at SummerSlam—this stage is a statement that the SummerSlam brand is just as monumental.” The insider also noted that logistical challenges have been met with creativity, given the tight timeline between the stage setup and the event itself.

The convergence of Hulk Hogan’s family news with WWE’s monumental SummerSlam preparations frames a significant moment in wrestling history. While the Hogan legacy faces a turning point outside the ring, WWE pushes forward with one of its most ambitious shows, highlighting the enduring global appeal and spectacle of professional wrestling entertainment.

Fans are advised to stay tuned to WWE.com and top wrestling news outlets like PWMania, Wrestling Headlines, and Gerweck for up-to-the-minute coverage, detailed results, backstage updates, and the final reveal of the SummerSlam 2025 stage. With the event just days away, expectations for groundbreaking matches and unforgettable entertainment are sky-high.
