“Hogan had back surgery again. He had the nerves cut from his lower body, he can’t feel his lower body. So, he has to use his cane to walk around.” said the American hero. Angle was under the impression that the 69-year-old “was using the cane” because of his back pain after surgery.
However, that was not the case. Hogan was not going through any pain at all. ‘The Wrestling Machine’, who was one of the opponents of Hogan’s last matches in WWE, added, “He doesn’t have any pain, he has nothing at all. He can’t feel anything.”
‘Thunder Lips’ uses a cane to walk, as he can no longer feel his legs. The Olympic Hero went on to say, “That’s pretty serious. I mean, I really feel for Hogan. He put his heart and soul into the business and it ate him up.” King Kurt was also present on WWE Raw 30 this week and had a “half an hour” talk with ‘The Hulkster’ backstage.
Fans were concerned following this news update from Angle. People opined that Hogan’s infamous leg drop finisher is a primary reason for this condition.
Regardless of whether anyone likes or hates Hulk Hogan of the stuff he said in the past, it sucks that he has no feeling in his legs and hope that he gets the feeling back in his legs

With the amount of leg drops he's done, especially with those hard ass rings the WWF used to have, can you blame him?
— lightning_kf 🇧🇧 (@lightning_kf) January 28, 2023
Man probably did 5000 legs drops in his career. I could see how someone that big landing on his ass so many times like that could really screw up someone's back

Leg drops destroyed him.

So if he does another leg drop does he just disintegrate or somethin https://t.co/usw3RrlztW

I have one leg I can't feel due to a gunshot several years back. I can not imagine having both legs feeling like dead weight. You know the leg is there but always have to look down while walking so you do not step wrong and fall. I hate to hear this brother #HH @HulkHogan https://t.co/RMDAZm7lsk

Wow, that's tough to hear. No matter what, Hogan will be my guy in pro wrestling.
He was the reason why I became a fan and why I wanted to try wrestling.
Also, he is one the nicest dudes I've met in person.

Prayers too Mr. Hogan

Hopefully, The Hulkster can recover and recuperate well with time. The wrestling community can be glad that Hogan got to enjoy the adulation from fans and his coworkers before the surgery.
