Hulk Hogan Has Passed Away At 71 Years Old
RIP to the Hulkster. The man who made wrestling mainstream and brought down Deadspin. A hell of a life and legacy. Without Hogan there's no WWE as we know it today, that's for sure. He transcended professional wrestling and stared in movies, TV shows, commercials, video games, and was one of the most recognizable celebrities of the last 40 years.
So many people have been influenced by Hogan- his ability to brand himself was second to none. He never dropped out of the mainstream. And he was also a hall of fame tweeter.
He's a 2 time WWE hall of famer, was revealed as the 3rd member of the NWO in the greatest heel turn in wrestling history, and his lawsuit against Deadspin brought that rag of a website to it's grave. RIP Hulk Hogan.
