Hulk Hogan, the legendary figure in professional wrestling, is widely recognized as the original face of WWE. Throughout his extraordinary career, he achieved immense success and established numerous iconic records, including his reign as one of the longest-reigning champions and his unbeatable streak.
Hogan dominated the WWE in the 1980s, swiftly rising to become a global icon with his patriotic persona. He garnered a huge fan base, particularly among the younger WWE audience.
However, as time went on, fans began to uncover a different aspect of Hogan's character. Several former WWE superstars, particularly those who were black, came forward to share their negative experiences with Hulk Hogan from the past.
Sean Ross Sapp, a professional wrestling reporter, caused quite a stir on social media with a tweet that went viral. The tweet shed light on Hulk Hogan's previous racist remarks about black individuals.
“Hulk Hogan wasn't just racist. He was so specifically and uniquely racist that after his son almost killed his friend in a wreck, one of Hogan's primary concerns was that he and his family would be reincarnated into a black family due to "karma". This was caught on audio.”
Sean Ross Sapp further explained in the tweet, “When he came back to WWE, he hit the roster with a "be careful about cameras" as opposed to "I'm sorry.”

Hulk Hogan’s controversial comments about black people
Back in 2008, Hulk Hogan's son Nick had to spend some time behind bars for causing a car accident that left one of his buddies with a lifelong injury. During the trial that same year, the court made public a phone conversation between Hulk Hogan and his son, which made headlines once more in 2015.
Hulk Hogan and his son were caught on tape using offensive racial slurs, including the N-word. In the recording, Hogan even mentioned his worries about being reborn as a black person because of karma. Once the recording went viral, WWE took immediate action and fired Hogan from the company for his racist comments.
Hogan said while talking to his son, “You know that God gave you this vibe and this, this, energy that you and I are going to live forever, bro,” he said. “I just hope we don’t come back as a couple, I don’t want to say it, blizz-ack gizz-uys, you know what I’m saying.”
Hogan has a habit of getting into trouble with his problematic comments. Gawker Media decided to release a private video of Hogan with his best friend's wife, which caused quite a stir. In response, Hogan filed a massive lawsuit seeking a whopping 100 million dollars.
In the viral video, Hulk Hogan was caught talking about black people and his daughter's black American boyfriend, “I mean, I’d rather if she was going to f–k some n—-r, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n—-r worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player! I guess we’re all a little racist. F–king n—-r”, Later Hulk Hogan publicly apologized for his comments.
