Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan came under fire after he made public comments, suggesting violence against Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris.
A footage that has appeared online shows the former WWE performer spewing racist and unprintable language against the US Vice President.
Hulk Hogan appeared on stage, early this month, to throw his weight behind Trump, at the 2024 Republican National Convention.
In the latest video, he stood in front of a handful of people, misconducting himself amid cheers.
Hogan was said to be promoting his new beer brand at an event in Medina, Ohio, when he decided to roll in the mud.

“You want me to body slam somebody? You want me to body-slam Kamala Harris? I said, do you want me to body slam Kamala Harris?! You want me to drop the leg on Kamala?” the Wrestler said.
A body slam is a wrestling throw in which the opponent’s body is lifted and brought down hard to the mat.
Hulk Hogan used other derogatory language, but he seemed to feel good about his expressions.
As expected, some users on X (formally Twitter) took on the former WWE man for unwarranted verbal assault.
Some comments read: “I am not a Democrat, but I am an American, and a Christian. These violent and racist statements from recent Republican Convention speaker Hulk Hogan regarding Vice President Kamala Harris are abhorrent. The RNC [Republican National Convention] should immediately condemn this.”
“How is that not treated as a threat against the sitting Vice President? I have nothing to say about the racism because he [Hulk] has always been a racist,” another added.
Another follower recalled that Hulk Hogan had shown similar racist behavior towards his daughter’s boyfriend, so the wrestler’s comments about Kamala Harris “are not something to be shocked about.”
