Hooks are not really designed for this kind of stuff, they were designed for creating scripts that can setup the environment for the new domain. That is, there's nothing that would need to be done on a destination host once a domain finished migrating there. Therefore, there's no hook called at that time. You want to listen for domain life cycle events instead.
