Vince McMahon has released a statement following the passing of WWE legend Hulk Hogan on Thursday.
The former WWE Chairman took to Twitter to honor Hogan’s legacy, crediting him for playing a pivotal role in catapulting WWE to new heights during the Rock & Wrestling Era and the rise of Hulkamania.
You can read Vince McMahon’s statement below:
The world lost a treasure today. Hulk Hogan was the greatest WWE Superstar of ALL TIME, someone who was loved and admired around the world. He was a trailblazer, the first performer who transitioned from being a wrestling star into a global phenomenon.
His grit and unbridled thirst for success were unparalleled — and made him the consummate performer. He gave everything he had to the audience whom he appreciated, respected and loved.
He leaves us with one of his favorite expressions, “Train, take your vitamins and say your prayers.” Today, we pray for him.

In an ironic timing, it’s worth noting that Hulk Hogan passed away on the exact day of the 10th anniversary of his racist rants being published.
