Hulk Hogan was a true legend. I was fortunate to work with him a couple of times, including this memorable one. It was easy to do a Hulkster impersonation when, like millions of guys my age, I’d practiced it in the mirror a thousand times growing up. #RIPHULKHOGAN https://t.co/8iRfUDy0D8 pic.twitter.com/h7Un65D7KD

When I nearly lost my dad 8 years ago, one of the few people who was there for all of it was Hulk Hogan.
My heart breaks for Nick and Brooke.

Hulk was the man period.
I often forget I got to work with and film segments with him regularly during his TNA run.
Wrestling will never be the same.

WWE would not be where it is today without the larger-than-life characters that compete in the ring … and few, if any, loomed larger than Terry “Hulk Hogan” Bollea.
He was the archetype of what it meant to be a “Superstar” – a global sensation that inspired millions to work… pic.twitter.com/wXpgFvAhHA

RIP Hulk Hogan – the most iconic wrestler in history, a wonderful character, and in person, a far gentler, charming, intelligent man far removed from his snarling beast ring (and Rocky movie!) persona. Sad news. pic.twitter.com/z3lT5gJgFk

I was just getting off a red carpet when someone grabbed me by around my waist and picked me st8 up into the air. I am NOT SMALL, and I am NOT light. It was Hulk Hogan. He wanted to introduce me to his daughter.
He was so nice and loved his daughter so much, it oozed from him.… pic.twitter.com/GzOhStOKYG

When I was a kid I ate my vitamins, said my prayers because Hulk Hogan told me to. He was someone I looked up to; a larger-than-life presence I copied constantly growing up. The voice, flexing, charisma, he made you want to be bold, loud, confident.
RIP, Hulk Hogan. pic.twitter.com/XrGgb6GAGz— The Miz (@mikethemiz) July 24, 2025
I lost another brother. Icon doesn’t even touch it. Rest in power my friend. NWO 4 Life….and beyond

As a kid, I rewatched “The Hulkster Hulk Hogan” on VHS more than any other cartoon or kids show.
My obsession with pro wrestling can be traced back to the original Hulkamania Days with my brother and dad.
There’s a lot of people hurting right now. 😭
