Hulk Hogan’s health status has been in the news recently after Bubba the Love Sponge claimed the WWE legend was on his deathbed due to heart and lung issues. And now, despite his wife and Jimmy Hart playing this down on social media, TMZ has unfortunately reported the WWE legend has passed away this morning in Clearwater, Florida, from a cardiac arrest at the age of 71.

Hogan, real name Terry Bollea retired from the ring back in 2012 following two low-key house show matches for TNA in the United Kingdom.
