WHAT you gonna do when the Hulkster runs wildly racist on you? 

 
If you're WWE, you're going to fire the company's most iconic pro wrestler.

The New York Post reports that wrestling legend Hulk Hogan was body-slammed by WWE on Friday when it was revealed he went off on a racist tirade in his infamous sex tape that's at the centre of a lawsuit with Gawker, according to reports.

Hogan is heard spewing hate speech in a conversation about his daughter, Brooke, and her African American boyfriend, sources told Radar Online and The National Enquirer:

"I mean, I'd rather if she was going to f**k some NIGGER, I'd rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall NIGGER worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player! I guess we're all a little racist. F**king NIGGER!"

WWE has scrubbed Hogan from several online platforms, according to a report by Wresting Inc: His profile was removed from the Alumni section of WWE's website, related merchandise was removed from its online shop and Hogan was removed from the cast listing for Tough Enough, a WWE-produced reality series.

Hogan has a history with the n-word. Online wrestling forums dusted off a years-old radio interview on DJ Whoo's SiriusXM show in which Hogan uses the slur several times in telling a story.

DJ Whoo Kidd asked: "You've been saying 'brother' for years. Any black guy ever say, 'Yo, you my NIGGER, you my NIGGER, Hulk?'"

Hogan replied: "Well, Booker T [a black ex-wrestler] used to say that to me on TV, and, you know, every time I pull up YouTube there's that famous thing that Booker T ... goes, 'I'm coming for you, my NIGGER.'

"They're all calling me NIGGER, and then I started saying it and you know, I always said it, but now all of a sudden I get heat when I said it."
