“Hulkamania” ran wild at the Republican National Convention (RNC) as World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) legend Hulk Hogan declared Donald Trump “a real American hero.”
The 70-year-old Terry Bollea, aka Hulk Hogan, gave a fiery speech at the RNC, showcasing his support for the former United States President, who is currently the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee for the 2024 presidential election.
Hulk Hogan made a grand entrance by ripping off his jacket to reveal a Trump-Vance shirt adorned with the MAGA (Make America Great Again) slogan. The crowd erupted as he passionately declared that Trump and his supporters, whom he called “Trump-ites,” would steer the United States back on course.
“Let Trump-a-mania run wild, brother. Let Trump-a-mania make America great again!” Hogan exclaimed to a standing ovation from Trump and other Republicans in attendance.
He concluded his endorsement with a rhetorical challenge to political adversaries:
Whatcha gonna do when Donald Trump and all the Trump-a-maniacs run wild on you, brother?

Hulk Hogan’s enthusiastic endorsement came in the wake of a dramatic and troubling incident in Butler, Pennsylvania where the former US President survived an assassination attempt. Donald Trump was shot and wounded in his right ear while addressing a campaign rally. Pictures of Trump standing up, bloodied with a fist raised in the air, went viral on social media, further heating up the 2024 presidential election.
