Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan has died at 71 years old. Medics were dispatched to the WWE icon’s Clearwater, Florida home early on Thursday morning, with operators stating it was regarding a “cardiac arrest”, TMZ Sports reported. As per reports, a slew of police cars and EMTs were parked outside Hogan’s home and he was carried into an ambulance on a stretcher. Just a few weeks ago, Hogan’s wife, Sky, denied rumours he was in a coma.
Hulk transformed professional wrestling into a family entertainment sport. Before Hulk, wrestling catered to a fairly narrow audience. His theatrics in the ring were magnetic for children and their parents, and it supercharged the sport. In 1996, Hulk transformed himself from hero to villain by creating the ‘New World Order’ (NWO) and became Hollywood Hulk Hogan. It propelled him and professional wresting to even more fame.
