I'm not gonna speak ill of the dead, but I'm not gonna act like this one upsets me. I'll leave it at that.

Sucks that his political views got him boo’d out of the building at his last ever WWE appearance. Thankfully I don’t follow politics, so all I have to go by is what he did in the ring. And he nearly did it all! This one is tough I’m sure for most in the company.
Blaze

It has zero to do with his political views why he got booed. Undertaker has the same views and was cheered the same night.
Brentford

It was most definitely part of it, in addition to other reasons.
Blaze

Then why didn't Undertaker get the same treatment? He supports Trump, he had Trump on his podcast. Hogan still would have been booed that night even if he never supported Trump. Like I'm trying to be respectful here on the matter. But yeah, he got booed because he bought it on himself way before he endorsed Trump.

Hulk the entertainer was great.
Terry the person was awful.

Obviously Hogan has given people more reasons for them to hate him than Taker has. Larson said something too along the subject matter, but he gets hella cheered. I suppose I just don’t follow celebrity news enough to know everything about everyone. If my local news ain’t talking about it, I don’t know about it. Heck, I found out Hogan had passed after overhearing two workers at KFC talking about it.

I'm a huge part of the IWC (Internet Wrestling Community) so yeah, I see everything. Are they people who hate Hogan because of Trump? Most definitely. But yeah if you kept up with wrestling news the way I do, and everything, you would very much understand. So I understand now why you thought that was why.

Road courses and short tracks.
Well, some of the NASCAR crowd isn't either.

Probably depends where they are at, but also I think a lot of wrestling fans don't care also. They are plenty of MAGA Wrestlers who get cheered. Its just the ones who are super gross and done a lot of other bad ****(Hogan, Logan Paul, probably Kane) who gets booed. But Roman Reigns admitted he voted Trump, he's right now one of the people getting the loudest cheers.

If he had gone to Sensitivity Training,would all have been forgiven? Asking for a former Gannassi racing fan...

Like many others, I think he lost track of where the line was between himself and his entertainment persona. Or like a few, he forgot there ever was a difference. Andy Kaufman leaps to mind.

I would think more about the damage done to the daughter and her relationship myself. Opinions vary.

That’s the biggest downside of being a celebrity, in my opinion. Eyes are always on you and ears are always listening. Whatever you do or say, the entire world will know about it. And if it’s bad enough, it’ll hurt your reputation as a person forever. Most of us have said or done things that are deemed inappropriate, but it’s no big deal because we are not in the public eye.

He's a dead pile of pig crap... Eff him.

If Hogan gave a real apology, and not a "watch what you say because you might get caught" apology, he probably would've been forgiven for that.
Magicmiler

Apology. Pffttt..
In his heart and soul, he was a racist turd.
Blaze
The Midnight Rider
Yeah. I was saying Hogan's apology was bs...
Magicmiler

Apologies don't expunge racism.
