With the civil suit with Gawker behind him, it looks like WWE is ready to drop the ban on him, put everything in behind them, and welcome Hogan back into the WWE Universe.
Hogan was removed from the official WWE Hall of Fame roster on WWE.com, all traces and references of Hogan were removed from all WWE property, they were having Hogan created characters removed from WWE video game downloadable content, there was thoughts of removing content involving him from WWE Network, they pulled all his merchandise ... basically, erasing him from WWE history.
However, at a press conference to promote this years WrestleMania, Stephanie McMahon mentioned Hogan by name today, and Hogan (as well as his likeness) was used in video and post packages throughout the event. So, the feeling is that he will make a surprise return at WM this year.
