“I was pretty disappointed with what I heard, like all of us, by the
way. I was disappointed in him. I have known Terry for a lot of years.
My dad helped trained him in Florida in the ’70s when he was breaking
into the business. I come from a very long lineage of professional
wrestlers” said The Rock.
“I had not known the man to be racist. It’s funny, it’s one of those
things where, and not justifying what he said, but we’ve all talked
trash, especially in private. He said what he said and he’s paying the
price” further said the Hollywood star......Hulk Hogan has apologized for his racist remarks that got him kicked out of the WWE. "'Eight years ago I used offensive language during a conversation," Hogan tells Us. "It
was unacceptable for me to have used that offensive language; there is
no excuse for it; and I apologize for having done it. I believe very
strongly that every person in the world is important and should not be
treated differently based on race, gender, orientation, religious
beliefs or otherwise. I am disappointed with myself that I used language
that is offensive and inconsistent with my own beliefs. It is not who I
am. I continue to work every day to improve as a person, and
this matter is an important learning experience for me in that regard.
As a result I am resigning from my contractual relationship with the
WWE" said Hulk Hogan.
