Hulk Hogan reveals the true extent of physical abuse

Talking about the Joe Rogan Hogan recounted a terrifying incident that occurred just months before the tragic death of fellow wrestler Bruiser Brody at the same venue. Hogan described the tense atmosphere following his match with “Macho Man” Randy Savage, which saw a sold-out stadium.
He said, “So, I go to Puerto Rico and we have the game, we sell out the stadium, Macho Man and I go back to his room and we go to his room and his room is trashed. All of a sudden I'm like, 'Oh my God, I'm going to my room.'” He continued, “When I opened the door, he was sitting there and because he was still very active, he was sitting there with a gun and he said, 'If you ever come back here, I'm going to kill you.'”

In addition, according to ITR Wrestling, Hogan also spoke about a harrowing eight-year period in which Andre the Giant physically abused him. Despite the torment, Hogan eventually developed a friendship with Andre and recognized the legendary wrestler's passion for protecting the wrestling industry.
These revelations come shortly after Hogan faced heavy criticism for controversial comments about Vice President Kamala Harris. According to a BBC report, he made the remarks during a promotional event for his new beer, amid growing calls to stop violent political rhetoric following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump nearly six weeks ago.
Hogan made further remarks about Vice President Kamala Harris, including a reference to her Indian heritage. Vice President Harris is of mixed race, with her mother being from India and her father from Jamaica.
Hogan reportedly asked: “Is Kamala a chameleon? Is Kamala Indian?”
After some backlash, Hogan explained that he made the comments in question while not sober and attributed them to excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages at the bar.
“I will face the consequences for this, brother. That wasn't me. That was the beer that spoke.”
