Triple H Reveals He Personally Fired Hulk Hogan After Racist Comments Surfaced

TLDR

Triple H revealed in the Netflix documentary "Hulk Hogan: Real American" that he personally made the phone call to fire Hulk Hogan from WWE in 2015 after racist comments from a secretly recorded 2012 video surfaced publicly. Triple H explained that since Hogan still had business ties with WWE at the time, he was responsible for terminating the relationship, stating "I didn't fire Hulk Hogan, I fired Terry Bollea." Following the controversy, WWE removed Hogan from the Hall of Fame section of its website, pulled his merchandise, and cut all ties with the wrestling legend, though he was later reinstated to the Hall of Fame after issuing public apologies.
