Hulk Hogan Was a Very Bad Man
Hulk Hogan, an absolute trainwreck of a human being and the most important professional wrestler who ever lived, has died at seventy-one. Letβs get that second part out of the way, because while most of the world knows that itβs true, actual wrestling fans are often in complete denial about it. And Hogan, of course, is entirely to blame: heβs spent the last several decades begging anyone who would pay attention to flush a legacy he dropped into the toilet.
