US Hulk Hogan Dead at 71

https://www.tmz.com/2025/07/24/hulk-hogan-dead/

Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan has died at 71 years old, TMZ Sports has learned.

Medics were dispatched to the 71-year-old WWE legend's Clearwater, Florida home early Thursday morning ... with operators stating it was regarding a "cardiac arrest."

We're told a slew of police cars and EMTs were parked outside Hogan's home ... and the icon was carried on a stretcher and into an ambulance.

Just a few weeks ago, Hogan's wife, Sky, denied rumors he was in a coma ... stating his heart was "strong" as he recovered from surgeries.

We broke the story last month -- there were rumblings Hogan was on his "deathbed" ... but we were told at the time he was just dealing with the symptoms of a neck procedure he underwent in May.

RIP to the funniest running joke in wrestling

Dude was the embodiment of Florida. RIP.

And we wonder how wrestling has turned faker and gayer, a heretofore thought impossible feat.

Maybe that’s why Los Angeles started burning the same night?

 

[Xarpho's Return]

We really are at that period where we're going to see alot of famous people during the 70s and 80s dying

They also take the worst ones. Harrison Ford will die before Mark Hamill and William Shatner will die before that gay fuckwad.

His last WWE appearance he was kinda booed though. Wrestling is full of libs now.

Yes and no. A lot of Redditors have signs. I'm willing to bet he was booed not just because he's not a fan of the black people.

If you look up "Hulk Hogan Lies" there's dozens of videos exposing him. So, I believe that the majority of people booing have access to YT and saw at least a few of these videos and did some research.

Also, I'd place Kurt Angle as my #3 fav wrestler after Undertaker and Mick Foley. Just FYI.

Fuck this gay Earth.

RIP

Wrestling, metal, and horror has been poisoned by soyboys being ironic. I'm surprised they haven't come for monster trucks. "Dude we chug beer and huff diesel but are like HECKIN wholesome."

Hulk Hogan was the first celebrity I had a random encounter with. I was about 12, in a grocery store, and saw him in the meat department in a Gold's gym shirt, larger than life. The huge wrestling and Hulkamaniac I was, all I could do was shout out "Hulk rules!" He just smiled and said, "Right on, little brother," gave me a high five, and kept on shopping.

Also, he dropped the leg on Gawker, so he's the champion forever just for that. Rest in peace, Hulkster.

I used to work concerts and events as an EMT back in college. Got to meet all the wrestlers back then. We had to take their vitals before and after they went in the ring.

Sgt Saughter was a really nice guy. Andre was a trip didn't say much but just smiled and laughed at us trying to take his blood pressure with tools meant for humans.

Hulk Hogan spent the entire event trying to get into the pants of the 2 cute nursing students on my crew. Relentlessly. Even by 80's standards it was a bit creepy and annoying.

NEVER FORGET, BROTHER HH

Who else had a reality show on their family in the 2000s?

Gene Simmons

 

[evilsponge]

The steroids got the last laugh when they executed a perfect running leg drop on his heart

 

[tehpope]

Next one has to be someone big. A real 80s iconic person, maybe even had a reality show like the other two, brings love and hate all at the same-oh…oh no

What a fucking cursed week

 

[Dire Dire Cocks]

The Twin Towers finally got their revenge for what he did that day.

 

[Ensi]

*insert obvious joke about @Hollywood Hulk Hogan*

 

[Hollywood Hulk Hogan]

Don't worry, brothers. That was just the imposter hired by that slanderous troll Ted Dibiase to make the Hulkster look retarded

 

[WelperHelper99]

RIP Hulk Hogan. Remember seeing you in Rocky 3, that was kino shit. Hope your family is OK man

 

[2ndBest]

We did it Kiwis the Hulkster is alive!

 

[Billy_Sama!]

Dawg come on, you can't take Ozzy AND The Hulkster in the same week. What the fuck. Did Satan win a bet or something?

I never had to switch to listening from Blizzard of Oz to Hulk's Big Boot Band but it's the world we live in.

They also take the worst ones. Harrison Ford will die before Mark Hamill and William Shatner will die before that gay fuckwad.

I'm going to say Stephen King is the next to go. There's a lot of movies and shows coming out this year based on his books.
