You would have thought Flair would have gone before Hulk with the way his lifestyle was.

But I give Flair credit when it came to cardiovascular health. That guy was like no other. Sure he did steroids like the rest, yes he is a full blown alcoholic. But he actually worked on keeping his heart healthy.

Big thing was he lost a ton of weight after his plane crash. He always had a limited move set but is probably the best seller of all time.

But the fact that he's still alive is a miracle when it comes to the drinking. His last match was so goddamn pathetic.

He got kind of weird in the later years, but a huge bummer nonetheless.

Kind of a major symbol of western civilization and entertainment in the 80s.  

The "weird" stuff was exposed in the later years, but I bet he had those demons long before the public knew.

Same thing with Vince McMahon.

For sure!  

And I think Vince was much worse.

RIP Hulkster! There goes my childhood. I liked him growing up but he wasn't my favorite (I liked the Undertaker, Warrior, and British Bulldog were my guys in the early 90's and in the mid-late 80's i was a Sting, Steamboat, Road Warriors and a few others.

I was a Hogan mark till Jake The Snake came on the scene. Jake doesn’t get the credit he deserves for trailblazing the babyface heel. No Jake, no Stone Cold. You just have to look at the merch of the time: not one heel had shirts…except Jake.

RIP Hogan, thank you for the memories

Jake was cool back in the day. His feud with Rick Rude and Randy Savage were great. 

Remember the movie "No Hold Barred"? Hulk's name was RIP

I did and I actually stopped watching wrestling for now.  There's too much that makes me feel "icky" lol.  Especially the deal with Saudi Arabia.  I had originally planned on attending Summerslam but that's not happening anymore.  More time and money to watch concerts haha.

It's an old joke and there are people that think that's what he wrote

Wonder what kind of tributes Smackdown is going to do tonight? I doubt they are just gonna show a "blurb" of his death. I'm guessing a 10 bell salute and a tribute video?
