WHAT you gonna do when the Hulkster runs wildly racist on you? (http://brightcove.vo.llnwd.net/v1/unsecured/media/4221396001/201507/3391/4221396001_4372442903001_hulk.jpg?pubId=4221396001)
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!"(http://cdn.meme.am/instances2/500x/912782.jpg)
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."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f20Z-iGVoP0 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f20Z-iGVoP0)
