Legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan was reportedly battling serious health issues before his sudden death after a cardiac arrest.

In May 2025, a representative for Hogan confirmed to TMZ that the “Hogan Knows Best” star underwent a “little fusion procedure” on his neck to help him “feel a little better.” By the following day, his rep confirmed, Hogan was back to work.

Hulk Hogan was at the center of rumors that his health was declining just a few weeks before the news of his death on Thursday.
