WWE co-founder Vince McMahon described Hogan as the greatest WWE superstar of all time.
“He was loved and admired around the world. He was a trailblazer – the first performer to transition from being a wrestling star into a global phenomenon.

WWE fans and stars have since shared their tributes on social media, paying their respects to the legend.
WWE superstar Kane said he was a true legend.
“Hulk Hogan was a true legend. I was fortunate to work with him a couple of times, including this memorable one. It was easy to do a Hulkster impersonation when, like millions of guys my age, I’d practised it in the mirror a thousand times growing up.”
