In a viral TikTok video posted on the day of his death, Hogan could be seen as he was carried out of his home on a stretcher. Several responding officers stood around him as a paramedic rapidly performed CPR.
Leading up to his death, Hogan underwent routine neck surgery in May. A spokesperson for the wrestler shared that he required a “little fusion procedure” to make him “feel a little better.”
Hulk Hogan's friend said he was 'doing great' just two days before his death.
Hulk Hogan's 'Vicious Cycle' With Pain Medication
Hulk Hogan underwent at least 25 surgeries before he died.
The following month, he was admitted to the hospital for post-surgical issues. It is unknown if his lingering symptoms caused him to go into cardiac arrest on the day he died; however, his “vicious cycle” with prescription pain medication, which he opened up about in 2023, could have impacted his overall health as he healed from his neck surgery.
“I had doctors writing me prescription after prescription,” Hogan admitted. “I was hitting the pain pills hard because I’d had to endure twenty-five procedures.”
Hulk Hogan Almost Committed Suicide
Hulk Hogan admitted he almost committed suicide due to his battle with depression.
Although Hogan powered through his experience with pain meds after undergoing at least 25 surgeries, including 10 back procedures, the WWE legend confessed in his 2009 memoir, My Life Outside the Ring, that he nearly committed suicide due to a severe battle with depression.
“A gun was in my hand, and my finger was on the trigger, and I was thinking, It would just be so easy,” he wrote.
