Might just be time to pack it up as a civilization.
Granted I mostly stick to watching PLEs these days but outside of crispinwah isn't it standard procedure to do one on Raw and one on Smackdown? You know, since they are totally different shows that exist in separate universes and fans have visceral allegiances to one of the other.

Not gonna lie here...I actually haven't paid enough attention to remember if it is actually standard practice for the WWE to hold multiple tributes (one on RAW and one on Smackdown). However, if it is not standard practice, one would only assume this time around was an exception just because of how prominent of a figure Hulk Hogan has been both in the WWE, and in professional wrestling in general.
On the one hand, I agree with you: if there was one guy, in WWE of all places, that was going to get the double tribute, it's Hulk Hogan.
On the other hand, **** Hulk Hogan. RIH, Bozo.

He gets his tributes and then will largely be erased from memory. Probably a fair compromise.
Anecdotal evidence: My kid was noticeably sad about Ozzy, who tbh, I have never really listened to with him unless it just comes on as a one off (maybe he does at his mom's who knows). Meanwhile I got him into wrasslin in 2013 around the time of my divorce. He was just like "who cares" when I told him HH died. Says it all.

I mean, I’m pretty sure they only gave Bray Wyatt one ten bell salute tribute episode and he was a universally beloved (behind the scenes) current member of the company roster.
Sight unseen, I'm guessing this has something to do with a recently departed dillhole?
I'd like a palate cleanser from all of this Hogan glazing, so here's a Doom match::

Was gonna save this for the TDOS Wrestling draft but since I’m not sure that’s still happening this summer and you started me down a rabbit hole of classic wrestling matches, here’s Toyota and Hokuto giving each other CTE for twenty minutes in an absolute banger of a match that I’m pretty sure ends with both of them unconscious.
There’s a reason that most sane promos don’t let their wrestlers take bumps like this but at the same time, this match is thirty years ahead of its time.
