The wrestling world is mourning the loss of one of its greatest legends.
Hulk Hogan, a star in the WWE, has died at his Clearwater Florida home, TMZ Sports reported July 24. He was 71.
According to a phone call with a 911 operator obtained by the outlet, the emergency pertained to “cardiac arrest.”
The former professional wrestler (real name Terry Gene Bollea) was a fixture in the community and won six WWE championships during his career.
A little over a month before his tragic passing, the wrestling legend’s rep dispelled rumours that he was “on his deathbed” telling E! News in June there was “no reason to panic.”
His rep confirmed that the Hogan Knows Best star “had problems with his back,” adding that he underwent neck surgery and that it “has indeed been successful.”
It was Bubba The Love Sponge, a Florida-based radio personality, who first surfaced rumours Hogan was not doing well, claiming during a stream last month that he was “in the hospital” and “might not make it.”
