    Shocked to hear this.

    Not the only one in his industry with a shady side but unquestionably an icon. Before my time when I started getting really into wrestling, but his status has perhaps only been surpassed by The Rock and Cena since.

    Did well to make it to 71

    Most of the guys he wrestled in his prime died years ago.

    Sent me a signed top when I was sick a few years back. Was a really nice gesture.

    I recall him popping up on maybe tiktok or YouTube recently in the last few weeks and I was surprised how gaunt and drained he looked in his face….not just older looking, but old and also very jaded. He was talking about his heart condition, surgeries on various injuries, chronic pain issues and he just didn’t seem that upbeat ‘ hey brother ‘… or in love with his life..he obviously was in bad nick…

    Ah this news doesn't work for me brother. First Ozzy, now the Hulkster. What a crap week.

    There were rumors he was in bad shape.

    I suppose it was a bad sign when he had been quiet for the last few weeks. I remember seeing him for the first time on The A Team and being in awe of his massive frame

    I am going to watch his most famous match tonight. RIP brother.

    My brother posted that message in our sibling WhatsApp group, but got delayed in sending the follow-up message about Hulk Hogan dying. Since I'm his only brother, my sisters thought my brother was announcing my demise is a very odd way. 💀😂
