The scandal which resurfaced amidst the wrestler’s demise news, included the repeated use of the N-word and racial remarks about his daughter’s dating life. Though WWE didn’t specify they are removing the wrestler back in 2015 due to racist slurs, they stated Hogan’s commitment towards diversity and inclusion as a reason of removing him from the organization.
Although, the professional wrestler, later, publicly apologized saying his language was “unacceptable.”

According to a transcript, Hogan was recorded saying, “I mean, I’d rather if she was going to f–k some n—-r, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n—-r worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player…I guess we’re all a little racist. F–king n—-r.”
Swiftly afterwards, WWE terminated his contract and in addition, they also removed all reference of Hogan from their official website, including his Hall of Fame profile. Audio of the racist rant by the wrestler can be heard here.
