Hulk Hogan, the wrestling titan known for his signature mustache and larger-than-life persona, has left us at the age of 71 after suffering cardiac arrest. The news broke on July 24, and since then, tributes have poured in from fans, friends, and fellow wrestlers who are still trying to wrap their heads around the loss. WWE, where Hogan made history, reflected on his vital role in turning the company into the pop culture phenomenon it is today. It’s shocking to think how someone who seemed invincible in the ring could be taken from us so suddenly.
Wrestlers like Ric Flair shared heartfelt memories, recalling how Hogan stood by him during rough patches, like his hospitalization in 2017.

Vance and Donald Trump Jr. It’s clear Hogan wasn’t just an icon in the ring; he was a friend to many, a political ally, and a source of inspiration—if only his antics on screen could keep him here forever.
