Hulk Hogan has once again been recorded making a racist comment.
While promoting his new beer – Real American – at an event at the Thirsty Cowboy, Hogan gave a speech deriding the Vice President of the United States and the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee. At the Republican National Convention a month ago Hogan gave a fiery speech in support of their candidate, Donald Trump.
Chugging beer the 71-year-old wrestling legend began by imitating “Stone Cold” Steve Austin’s ‘What?’ promos.
“You guys are supposed to say…What?…okay?” Hogan instructed the crowd.
“You guys need a cocktail? You need some crazy ladies? You need some muscles? You need some money? You need one beer? You need two beers? You need three beers? You need four beers? You need five beers? You need a Pina Colada?” said Hogan to the crowd as they followed each statement with a “What?”.
“You want me to body slam someone?” Hogan then joked. “Do you want me to body slam Kamala Harris? You want me to drop the leg (drop) on Kamala Harris?”.
He then got very personal.
“Is Kamala a chameleon?” referring to her mixed heritage. “Is she Indian? Okay, I like it,” said Hogan before saying “How” and then making a hand gesture greeting that is generally perceived to be a stereotypical, outdated depiction, reference to Native Americans. “How” is a North American anglicization, bastardization of the Lakota word “haw” has had been used in older pop culture references. In the Lakota language it is a common greeting used by men to recognize each other.
Harris’ father is Donald J. Harris, a Jamaican-American economist and her mother was Shyamala Gopalan, a biomedical scientist and an Indian-American, “Indian” as in the country of India.
Hogan tried to pull his comment back saying: “I am going to get heat for that, brother. That wasn’t me. That was the beers talking.”
This isn’t the first time Hulk Hogan has made controversial remarks. In 2015, The National Enquirer released the details of an unauthorized sex tape of Hulk Hogan making racist comments about the men his daughter had dated.
“I’d rather if she was going to f–k some n—-r, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n—-r worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player! I guess we’re all a little racist,” is one of the statements he made at the time according to The Enquirer.
Hogan, who became a born again Christian, apologized numerous times for his statements and described them as the “biggest mistake” of his life. The WWE fired him and removed all references to him until 2018 during which they reinstated him and have featured him on WWE television and live events numerous times since then.
Many fans ripped Hogan for his comments:
What a tough guy threatening to do this to a woman. It is time to put this has been @HulkHogan out to pasture like his career. https://t.co/3md9QeBlAS

Sometimes I forget how trash Hulk Hogan is.
If only I could get back the years as a kid thinking he was the shit.
