Nick Bollea, son of the late Hulk Hogan and known from the VH1 reality show “Hogan Knows Best,” was recently spotted at a WWE facility after hinting last year that he might pursue a wrestling career like his father. PWInsider Elite reported that Bollea visited the WWE Performance Center this week, though the purpose of his visit remains undisclosed.
In November, TMZ interviewed Bollea, who suggested that wrestling runs in his family and expressed a strong passion for the industry. He shared a selfie with NWA star Brian Idol at a wrestling ring and mentioned ongoing communication with wrestling insiders. “I like being around them, I like being close to the environment and the company,” Bollea said. “Like I said, we’re family.”
Back in August, Eric Bischoff, a former WCW executive and close friend of Hulk Hogan, revealed that Bollea was out of school due to a shoulder injury but had been attending his father’s wrestling school, training alongside Bischoff’s son.
Hulk Hogan passed away from cardiac arrest at age 71 in July. Nick Bollea appeared on WWE programming during the 10-bell salute on the July 28 episode of WWE Raw and was seen with his wife in the crowd at SummerSlam that year, but he has not yet returned to WWE television.
Fan Take:
This development excites WWE fans as it hints at the potential rise of a new generation carrying on the Hogan legacy. If Nick Bollea steps into the ring, it could add a compelling storyline and rekindle interest in one of wrestling’s most iconic families, benefiting the sport’s ongoing evolution.
