Hulk Hogan’s wife issues public statement regarding his health amid online speculation

During a live stream in June of 2025, radio host Bubba The Love Sponge claimed that he heard from “reliable” sources that WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan was in the hospital and his condition was “not good.” Bubba added that he heard family members were called to come “say their goodbyes.”

Former WCW President Eric Bischoff referred to the claims as “bullsh*t” and Hogan’s wife Sky issued a public statement via her Instagram story in regards to Hogan’s health…

“No, he’s definitely not in a coma! His heart is strong, and there was never any lack of oxygen or brain damage… none of those rumors are true. He’s been recovering from a major four-level Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF), which is an intense surgery with a long and layered healing process. If you look it up, you’ll see what the last six weeks have involved… not just for his spine, but also for his vocal cords, and the eating/breathing tubes that are clamped over during surgery. We’ve been in and out of the hospital to support that recovery. So truly, there’s no need for the drama or panic some people try to stir up. He’s healing, and we’re taking it one day at a time with love, strength, and patience.”
