Hulk Hogan (Terry Bollea), has died. He was 71.

Not a big fan of the man behind the act, but the act was iconic.
This thread is certainly seeing some heavy hitters of late.
Reunited with Macho Man Randy Savage.
I was never a wrestling fan, so my take on Hulk is different. He was an okay presence in mainstream media in the 80s outside of wrestling, showing up on talk shows and game shows and Saturday Night Live, etc.Refused to talk to his daughter for two years before his death, even after she nearly died in childbirth: https://www.tmz.com/2025/07/24/brooke-hogan-responds-to-father-hulk-hogan-death/
Hogan never got over with me back in the 80s. The NWO thing in WCW was okay, mainly because Hall and Nash were a riot to listen to and watch.I was never a wrestling fan, so my take on Hulk is different.

Then the whole sex tape thing came out, and he decided to align with evil gay billionaire troll Peter Thiel to destroy Gawker for posting the video.
For that, he can basically rot.
