A new Hulk Hogan docuseries is coming to Netflix. The streamer announced today that “Hulk Hogan: Real American” will premiere on Wednesday, April 22. “Before he was Hulk Hogan, he was Terry Bollea. Uncover the man behind the legend — featuring his very last interview,” reads the plug on the Netflix Sports social media page.
Powell’s POV: Words+Pictures filmed over twenty hours with Hogan for the four-part documentary, according to a Variety.com. The comments that responded to the social media announcement are worth a look. There’s a mix of pro-Hogan and anti-Hogan comments, including many that are NSFW because they contain the racist comments that Hogan made to his son, Nick Bollea, who was in jail at the time. Check out the trailer below.

Hulk Hogan is the reason wrestling is where it is today the fact that ignorant wrestling fans hate on him and call him racist is so infuriating because of the hypocrisy so you all think Hogan is racist despite black wrestlers like Kamala Booker T and others that say otherwise then you all have nothing to say when D Von Dudley tells the whole world Jim Ross is racist and called him tge N word nobody says a word about the numerous lawsuits and allegations for 40 years against Vince McMahon that are so heinous they make Hogan look like an angel it’s called selective outrage and it’s absolutely disgusting
So, you’re saying the fans are self-righteous, Burner Mike?
“I mean, I’d rather if she was going to fuck some n—–, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n—– worth a hundred million dollars. Like a basketball player.”
If this is what people who are not racist say to their sons about their daughters dating Black men, I can’t even imagine what actual racists say.
