Hulk Hogan’s ex-manager details heartbreaking final phone call to WWE legend just hours before his death
WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy Hart has revealed that he called Hulk Hogan just hours before the wrestling legend died aged 71.
Hart was Hogan’s manager and a close friend. Until recently, they would watch wrestling together several nights a week and they last met up around a month ago.
On Wednesday, Hart rang Hogan and spoke to his assistant. ‘Tell him I love him,’ he told them.
‘And then Thursday morning is when everything took place,’ Hart told PEOPLE. ‘So just overnight it all happened, but it was so positive the day before.’
Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, passed away following a cardiac arrest. The 71-year-old was the most iconic figure in professional wrestling.
Hogan and Hart also used to do karaoke with Hogan’s son, Nick, on Monday nights at the family’s bar, Hogan’s Hangout, in Clearwater, Florida.
