World Wrestling Entertainment has terminated its contract with legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan. The organization released a statement on Friday morning: "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."

Late Thursday night, WWE removed virtually all references to Hogan from its website. The WWE has not yet given an official reason for the removal, although widespread speculation has centered on comments that Hogan may have made.

Social media commentary overnight indicated that the removal may be related to comments Hogan made in an interview that has not yet been released. Yahoo Sports has reached out to WWE for comment and will update as information becomes available.

No. Outcomes are predetermined. Ask the performer Tyson Kidd if his neck injury is fake

If all this is true, they have no choice. No room for racism . It will bite Cowherd too. Soccer seems the place where racism runs wild.

quote:

“Well, Booker T used to do that to me, and every time I pull up YouTube there’s that famous thing with Booker T and his brother is there and they’re all talking trash, and Booker T says, ‘I’m coming for ya Hogan, you ****’—and not ‘****,’ he goes ‘****,’” Hogan told DJ Whoo Kid. Hogan then recounted his time living in Miami, and all the rappers he’d bump into like The Game, Lil Wayne, etc. “And it’s still so cool, because the whole time I was down in Miami when I lived there, you know, everybody—I’d walk into the [DJ] booth and all of a sudden I’d bump into this guy and The Game’s in the booth, it’s all black and he’s got his BlackBerry, and I bump into him and he goes, ‘What’s up, ****?’ and I said, ‘Oh, excuse me, bro!’ And he says, ‘No, it’s all cool,’” said Hogan. He continued: “And everybody down there—Lil Wayne, Birdman—they’re all calling me ‘****,’ and then I started sayin’ it. And I always said it, but now all of a sudden I get heat when I say it, and they say, ‘Hogan, you can’t say that,’ so I say, ‘Why can they say it to me then?’”


If this is really what it's over, then yeah that's above and beyond

Its not that, at all. Seriously there is another thread on the MSB and one on the OT.

He is caught on tape yelling about his daughter dating a music mogul's son. Its apparently really, really bad and WWE or any other company would have no choice but to sever all ties.

According to the transcript obtained by Radar Online and the National Inquirer, Hogan said on the tape, referring to his daughter: "I mean, I’d rather if she was going to f--k some n----r, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n----r worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player...I guess we’re all a little racist. F--king n---
