No fuckin way Hogan died? Rest is piss you massive disappointment
(straight to) hell, yea brothuur
😂
I usually find out stuff like this too.
i found out about Queen Elizabeth by meme, so i guess that's the standard now
I found out henry kissinger died from the same meme format as the OP
Our people tell the same story
At least it wasn't Castiel this time.
I'd be pissed if I'd found out about Ozzy this way, but Hulk Hogan? IDK, it seems appropriate
Yep. Only pissed it didn’t happen sooner.
I definitely found out about Ozzy from the same meme format
TBH getting Hulk Hogan was real fucking close to Trump.
I wish he died sooner.
I was never into wresting, and never followed Hulk Hogan. Today I am learning about what a piece of trash he was.
My friend posted this online comment that summed it up perfectly.
What transgressions? Can't say I'm particularly informed beyond knowing who he was.
He was a hateful white supremacist. Other wrestlers, such as Iron Sheik, have been telling people how much of a dirt bag Hogan was since the 80s. People just thought it was part of the act tho.
"it's just the beer talking" made Bolea talk about beating up a female politician
Rest in hell bitch!
That and he sabotaged Jesse Ventura's attempt to unionize wrestling to get more money for himself. Given how incredibly abusive the company is to its performers, that's not a small thing.
If I remember corrected he was a right cunt when his son went drunk driving, crashing and killing his friend in the passenger seat.
Perfect summary. Absolutely nailed it.
I was at Rock vs Hogan, skydome. Biggest crowd in Toronto indoor history, the entire Skydome was shaking. I and many others went in there to boo hogan but couldn’t help but cheer him on during that match. Epic. Go watch the crowd during that match, 80,000 going apeshit
This being so soon after Ozzy died, and Ozzy being 76 makes me feel like Hogan was like "check this out, brother! Imma live longer than Ozzy Osbourne!" And then just immediately died.
Considering Ozzy was a drug-fueled rockstar for decades who bit the head off a live bat and Hogan was marginally fit for all those years give or take some roids, I think Ozzy deserves at least several years of handicap.
If you think taking steroids and working out to the point of causing massive scar tissue in your muscles is good for you, then I have a bridge to sell you.
He was no stranger to drugs and alcohol either.
Don't forget the lifestyle of being hit with a steel chair doesn't do wonders for aging gracefully
Lmao
Rest in piss Terry.
Has death considered a GoFundMe, or maybe streaming on Twitch?
🤣
Oh that's one channel id subscribe to.
One less bigot in the world.
This is not how I imagined i'd find out about his death...
Were you expecting a knock on the door?
I was expecting to see it from a news article, rather than a meme.
yeah i thought it'd be with a free beer
Same.
Roll again grim reaper…
The wrestling fans turned on hogan, zapping him of his powers of hulkamania. I heard he shriveled like the dude in Indiana jones and the last crusade and turned to dust
remember they couldn't have beaten chuck norris without him
