As I've been a pro wrasslin' enthusiast since the days when the only Steve Austin up on the TV was the Six Million Dollar Man, I can tell you this has all the hallmarks of what we call a "work".

That's right, look for this thrilling debut of the the UnderHulkster coming to an arena near you soon!

But, seriously, this man is probably still the most famous wrestler of all-time. Condolences to his family and fans.
Here's my set of Hogans from the first Topps WWF Wrestling set, made in 1985:

And his Mr. America card from the recent Topps WWE Living Set which used the same design, but featured newly illustrated artwork:

Rest in peace.

He had a good run. 71 is basically like living to 100 in pro wrestler years. Whatever faults he had he’s the biggest pro wrestling superstar there ever will be.

Saw him wrestle in a dark match on wcw thunder. Sting vs hogan for the belt. He won and my 9 year old self went crazy.

Childhood hero. I'm devestated over this. Have been a fan since wrestlemania 1. Got to see Hulk VS Earthquake live from the front row with my dad back in the day.

So sad seeing people hating on him as if they have never made mistakes in life. Screw those people.

Hogan made wrestling. There will never be another.
