Hulk Hogan Fired From WWE Due To Racial Comments by nanbaljenas(m): 8:22pm On Jul 24, 2015 |
Early this morning, speculation ran wild when Hulk Hogan's profile was removed from WWE's website and the Tough Enough website. Likewise, all Hogan merchandise had vanished from the company's online shop. Rumors were swirling that Hogan had been released from the company due to racial remarks said during a radio interview in which he was discussing an old promo cut by Booker T. But nothing was certain. There was a "tape" out there of Hogan saying inflammatory things. It may have even been his sex tape, currently at the center of a lawsuit between Hogan and Gawker, which also contained Hogan using inappropriate racial remarks, per the National Enquirer. The Enquirer has several quotes they say come from the tape that they believe led to Hogan being let go. Whatever the case may be, Hogan has now been officially fired from WWE. WWE released the following statement regarding the situation: "WWE terminated its contract with Terry Bollea (aka Hulk Hogan). WWE is committed to embracing and celebrating individuals from all backgrounds as demonstrated by the diversity of our employees, performers and fans worldwide." While we don't (yet) know the official reason behind the termination, the wording used in the statement suggests that it does indeed have something to do with racial insensitivity. Whether or not there's a recent incident at the heart of this though - and not tapes/interviews from a few years back - is still unknown.
