Vince McMahon made a rare social media appearance to honor Hulk Hogan following the passing of the 71-year-old WWE Hall of Famer. On X, McMahon openly reflected on Hogan’s significant role in revolutionizing the wrestling industry.
Together, McMahon and Hogan spearheaded the “Rock ‘n Wrestling Connection,” leveraging Hogan’s larger-than-life persona to bring professional wrestling into mainstream entertainment throughout the 1980s. Despite highs and lows in their relationship, their mutual dedication to the business always took precedence.
Hogan’s death marks one of the most significant losses in pro wrestling, perhaps second only to Vince McMahon himself. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to those closest to Hogan during this difficult time.
Fan Take: This news is deeply impactful for WWE fans as Hulk Hogan was a foundational figure who helped shape the modern wrestling landscape.
