Tito Ortiz didn’t have the greatest time at the Triller Fight Club Show. Anderson Silva knocked him out in the first round itself. Of course, this stunned anyone who was supporting Ortiz, but no one else. However, prior to getting knocked out, Tito Ortiz did something that blew up on Twitter.

Ortiz came out to the arena to Hulk Hogan’s theme song. More than half the reactions are nothing but questions – why is Ortiz coming out to Hulk Hogan’s theme song? And that too waving the Blue American Flag?

The situation did not sit well with several viewers who were watching the event. Some of them believe that whoever booked this could have gone in a different direction.

Moreover, some of them pointed out that he got knocked out immediately after walking out to the Hulk Hogan theme song.

Previously, Hulk Hogan had passed a comment which did not sit well with the audience. At that point, Tito Ortiz had supported Hulk Hogan which sparked frustrated reactions from the audience.

Maybe Tito Ortiz will never use Hulk Hogan’s theme to come out to the arena. It doesn’t seem like the audience will let him off the hook if he uses Hogan’s theme a second time!
