Hulk Hogan è venuto a mancare nelle ultime ore e il mondo del wrestling ha ovviamente avuto modo di reagire a questa scioccante notizia.
Gli ultimi giorni erano stati decisamente turbolenti riguardo all’Hulkster, con notizie sul suo apparente stato di salute degenerato che rimbalzavano tra conferme e smentite. Un po’ ha sorpreso, e un po’ per forza di cose no, dunque la notizia della sua morte.
A 71 anni ci ha dunque lasciato la stella del wrestling, forse il lottatore più popolare della storia della disciplina. Tra WWE, WCW e infine TNA ha scritto pagine fondamentali di questo sport, che si sono andate a mescolare con una figura controversa, tanto amata per le sue gesta sul ring quanto discussa per alcune scelte extra.
Non è ovviamente questo il momento di parlarne. Questo è ovviamente il momento di salutare il grande Hulk Hogan, e alcuni protagonisti hanno deciso di farlo sui social:
WWE
In primis la WWE, che ha voluto ovviamente ricordarlo con un messaggio.

WWE would not be where it is today without the larger-than-life characters that compete in the ring … and few, if any, loomed larger than Terry “Hulk Hogan” Bollea.
