Hulk Hogan
Terry Gene Bollea, globally known as Hulk Hogan, has died at the age of 71. The wrestling icon passed away on July 24, 2025, at his home in Clearwater, Florida, following a reported cardiac arrest. He was transported to Morton Plant Hospital where he was later pronounced dead.

Hogan was one of the most recognizable figures in the history of professional wrestling, rising to global fame in the 1980s with his signature charisma, larger-than-life persona, and unforgettable catchphrases. He headlined eight WrestleManias, won multiple world championships, and was a two-time WWE Hall of Fame inductee.

Beyond wrestling, Hogan expanded his fame through film, television, and pop culture, starring in movies like Rocky III and the reality show Hogan Knows Best. Despite personal controversies and legal challenges in later years, his influence on the wrestling industry remains unmatched.

Tributes have poured in from across the world, with WWE, fellow wrestlers, celebrities, and fans mourning the loss of a legend. Hulk Hogan is survived by his wife, Sky Daily, and his children, Brooke and Nick.
