In a shocking revelation, Hulk Hogan claimed that his life was threatened following a match in Puerto Rico during the late 1980s.
Speaking on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Hulk Hogan recounted an incident that he claims occurred just four months before the tragic death of fellow wrestler Bruiser Brody in the same venue. Hogan described the atmosphere after his match with “Macho Man” Randy Savage, which had sold out the stadium. He recalled;
So I go down to Puerto Rico and we have the match, we sell out the stadium, me and Macho Man go back to the room and we go walk in his room and his room is trashed. All of a sudden, I’m like, ‘Oh my God, I’m gonna go to my room.’
As Hogan made his way to his own room, he encountered a chilling scene.
When I opened the door, he’s sitting there and because he’s still really active and he’s sitting there with a gun and he said, ‘If you ever come back here, I’m gonna kill you.’
Hogan’s claims draw a stark parallel to the fate of Bruiser Brody, who Hogan claims was murdered in the very same locker room he was threatened in just months later.
