WWE chief content officer and former wrestler Triple H wrote on Instagram: “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.
“He was the archetype of what it meant to be a Superstar – a global sensation that inspired millions to work hard at whatever it was they wanted to accomplish and a look that made him recognisable to fans around the world.
“Hulk Hogan, clad in red and yellow or NWO black and white, was simply put, iconic. As a Real American or the leader of one of the industry’s biggest factions, he transcended and elevated the entire business to heights never before seen, in every country and on every continent.
“There was no one like The Hulkster and there very well may never be another. My family sends their condolences to his family, friends, and fans.”
