WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan supported Donald Trump for president of the United States during his speech at the 2024 Republican National Convention. Hogan stated that he could no longer remain silent after “they took a shot” at his “hero.”
While speaking on his podcast, veteran wrestling personality Jim Cornette gave his thoughts on Hogan’s speech.
“We go back to this, and you know, we have made fun of Hulk Hogan and rightfully so for the big giant whopping lies that he tells every time he’s in front of three people or more. It’s funny because it’s easily disprovable stuff that you can look up in any number of sources. It’s verifiable things that he’s just pulling out of his ass and lying about, and you can easily take it apart if you have any time or inclination to do so. And it’s funny because it’s Hulk Hogan. But now, I mean, I’ve heard of the Friars Club, but they’ve started the Liars Club—liars, thieves, and criminals. They are grifters, and they all got together, and Hulk Hogan was invited to speak at one of our country’s national political conventions because they are the party of these stupid, gullible, dulled suckers that are perfect for Hulk Hogan’s b******. They don’t laugh at him anymore, and they ate it up, brother.”
”The wrestling business, we’ve been listening to it for 40 years, and honestly, in the ’80s, it was for kids and the real marks—the Vince [McMahon] and Hulk opinion of what a pro wrestling superstar should be—which is why, in many of the territories, they got laughed out for a while because it was so over-the-top. But it worked for the general populace, and now you’ve got—I mean, we know that Vince and Trump are bosom buddies, and Dana White is swinging off the mango melon’s tiny mushroom-headed p**** just every chance he gets. He’s got his lips locked around the man, and now Hulk Hogan wants to get in on it.”
“The only person who tells more lies than Hulk Hogan does is the pig-faced piece of s*** they are trying to reinstall in the White House. But he’s not funny. It’s not funny because Hulk Hogan’s lying about being a bassist for Metallica or slamming a 700-pound giant. You can laugh because it’s b******, but it’s not important b******. But you cannot laugh at Trump’s bullshit because it is Earth-endangering b******.”
