This one hurts.
Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan has died at the age of 71.
Hogan, who is considered one of the most iconic pro wrestlers of all time, reportedly died from cardiac arrest.
TMZ reported details on Hogan’s death:
Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan has died at 71 years old, TMZ Sports has learned.
Medics were dispatched to the 71-year-old WWE legend’s Clearwater, Florida home early Thursday morning … with operators stating it was regarding a “cardiac arrest.”
We’re told a slew of police cars and EMTs were parked outside Hogan’s home … and the icon was carried on a stretcher and into an ambulance.
Just a few weeks ago, Hogan’s wife, Sky, denied rumors he was in a coma … stating his heart was “strong” as he recovered from surgeries.
We broke the story last month — there were rumblings Hogan was on his “deathbed” … but we were told at the time he was just dealing with the symptoms of a neck procedure he underwent in May.
