Heartfelt Note by Kane
Hulk Hogan was a true legend. I was fortunate to work with him a couple of times, including this memorable one.

RIP, Hulk Hogan
When I was a kid I ate my vitamins, said my prayers because Hulk Hogan told me to. He was someone I looked up to; a larger-than-life presence I copied constantly growing up. The voice, flexing, charisma, he made you want to be bold, loud, confident.
RIP, Hulk Hogan. pic.twitter.com/XrGgb6GAGz
