Florida – In a shocking turn of events that has sent shockwaves through the world of sports and entertainment, WWE legend Hulk Hogan has been found dead at his Florida residence just 40 minutes ago. BBC News was the first to break the story, citing official sources close to the investigation. Authorities arrived on the scene following a 911 call placed by a neighbor who claimed to have heard shouting and glass breaking from the Hogan household late last night.
What unfolded next stunned even the most seasoned investigators. Upon entering the property, emergency responders discovered the 71-year-old icon, born Terry Bollea, lying unresponsive in his private lounge area. Attempts to revive him were unsuccessful, and he was declared dead at the scene. However, the cause of death is now at the center of a growing criminal probe—because evidence quickly pointed to something far darker than natural causes.
Investigators began combing the residence and reportedly found traces of a foreign substance in a glass located next to Hogan’s body. That glass, according to police, belonged to a drink prepared by his wife, Sky Daily. Early toxicology reports suggest the drink was laced with a compound that could have significantly impacted Hogan’s heart—already weakened by previous surgeries and ongoing medical issues.
Sky Daily, who married Hogan just last year, has been taken into custody for questioning. Though she has not yet been formally charged, police have confirmed that she is currently the primary person of interest in what is now being treated as a suspicious death. Officers have reportedly uncovered security footage from inside the home which may further implicate her, though those details have not yet been released to the public.
“We are currently investigating the circumstances leading up to Mr. Bollea’s death,” said Lt. Marcus Vey of the Florida State Police. “Preliminary evidence indicates foul play, and we are pursuing all leads. We ask the public to respect the family’s privacy as we work through this difficult case.”
The Hogan family, already shaken by recent health scares involving the wrestling legend, is said to be in a state of shock and disbelief. Nick Hogan, his son, released a heartbreaking statement just minutes ago: “My dad was more than a hero in the ring. He was a lion at home. I can’t process this. None of us can. We want answers, and we want justice.”
Friends close to Hogan expressed their disbelief at the situation. One longtime associate commented anonymously, “Terry loved Sky. He trusted her with everything. If she did this… it’s unthinkable.”
Hulk Hogan, revered by millions across the globe, was a titan of professional wrestling. He headlined countless WWE events, transcended the sport with Hollywood appearances, and became a symbol of ‘80s Americana. His charisma, strength, and signature “Hulkamania” persona made him a household name and a hero to generations of fans.
In recent years, Hogan had slowed down but never stepped away completely from the spotlight. He frequently attended WWE events, engaged with fans on social media, and was reportedly working on a new reality show highlighting his post-wrestling life with Sky Daily and their blended family.
Now, that chapter has ended in unimaginable tragedy.
As the investigation continues, questions linger: What exactly was in the drink? What was Sky Daily’s motive—if any? And how long had tensions been brewing beneath the surface of what appeared to be a happy marriage?
One thing is clear—the world has lost a cultural icon in the most disturbing and unexpected way. Tributes have already begun pouring in from celebrities, athletes, and fans across the globe. WWE issued a statement moments ago: “Hulk Hogan changed the face of professional wrestling forever. We are deeply saddened and are working with his family during this tragic time.”
A hero to millions. A symbol of strength and perseverance. Hulk Hogan’s life may have ended, but his legacy will never be forgotten.
