Steve Austin pays tribute to Hulk Hogan: ‘Hulkamania lives on’
WWE legend & pro wrestling icon “Stone Cold” Steve Austin was the latest to pay tribute to the late Hulk Hogan who passed away Thursday at 71 years old.
Austin posted a picture of himself and Hogan on Instagram (seen below) with the following caption:
“Hulk Hogan was born to be a Professional Wrestler. Larger than life. Charisma for days. He was in a stratosphere all on his own. His contributions are immense. His influence will be forever. Hulkamania lives on. My condolences to his family and loved ones.”
The two shared a memorable moment with The Rock to open WWE WrestleMania 30, but Austin and Hogan never had a one-on-one match. The closest they came was in a three-on-two handicap match on a March 2022 edition of Raw where the NWO (Hogan, Kevin Nash & Scott Hall) defeated Austin and The Rock.
