RIP Hulk Hogan
 

Aw man. Not Hogan!

Considering a lot of wrestlers have died from heart attacks due to steroid use, he lived longer than most of his contemporaries.

Watch all the people who hated him suddenly say he was their hero when they were kids.

It'll be Michael Jackson all over again.

Terry Bollea was a complicated man, but Hulk Hogan was my childhood hero. I was obsessed with him as a kid. When I got back into wrestling in the '90s, I was a WCW diehard because I loved Hollywood Hogan and the nWo and that love for him carried over into when he came back to WWE for his 2002 return ... which to me, was the greatest thing ever.

A big name in the wrestling world, one who many of us grew up with. He will be certainly be remembered well, especially that mustache of his. Rest well, Hulk Hogan.

Pro Wrestling fans are in the building!

Bobby Heenan: YEAH, BUT WHO'S SIDE ARE THEY ON?

This is shocking! He had the new promotion underway with Bischoff and Angle and despite the political backlash still had WWE involvement. He is my all-time favorite.

Yeah, I fully expected to see or hear about him back in the WWE wrestling to a limited extent as a heel again.

Well that's sad and a bit jarring. Another one who seemed like he was just supposed to live forever somehow.

Blaming my mom on this, she asked "who's next" after the last two.

Yikes!!! first Ozzy now Hogan. :o

I wasn't a huge fan but I was glad to see him return to the WWE in 2002.

Didn't he get booed in his last WWE appearance, was it this year or last year.

RIP Hulk Hogan. :(

They always go down in 3s, who's next? Someone we're expecting like Bruce Willis? Someone unexpected like perhaps Speilberg?
All these 80s icons are going to keep dropping like flies in the next 5-10 years.

I'm surprised he was only 71, feels like he had been around forever. I thought he was in his mid 80's pushing 90. He looked like 50 years old when he was only 30.

Blows my mind how young he was at the height of his popularity. Looked old enough to be my uncle.

Especially when they looked old as hell, I remember thinking they were like grand parents about to die when I saw them in the 2000s people like Rick Flair and Hogan. And yet you see The Rock and John Cena now and they're the same age they were back then but look so much better.

Arnold is going to be the third man, isn't he?

I’ve never been into wrestling. Would just see him in other things.

I liked when he hosted American Gladiators in 2008.

My son and I met him just a few months ago and he was great! Very engaging and generous with fans. The people he was with said no autographs but Hulkster saw my son holding an action figure and said to him that he would like to sign it. I grew up a Hogan fan and my son loves wrestling today so it is something we share. I’ll never forget Hulk Hogan putting a smile on my kid’s face that day. Rest easy Hulkster!

I think I remember he was a guest in the FoxBox during the TMNT 2003 Battle Nexus episodes, I remember he mentioned the Battle Nexus!

He will be missed.

I don't remember his FoxBox involvement! That's cool though!
Oh, so maybe the inclusion Kluh character was a very intentional and strategically timed homage after all!

Sounds reasonable to me, I noticed Kluh is Hulk spelled backwards!

I think most folks (like me) just assumed it was more of a Marvel reference with Laird being such a big Kirby fan. But the stache-esque design definitely has Hulkster energy. Wasn't sure how much was intentional.
