Brooke Hogan, daughter of the late wrestling legend Hulk Hogan, has voiced serious concerns surrounding her father’s unexpected passing on July 24, 2025. Speaking during an appearance on the Bubba the Love Sponge Show, Brooke shared doubts about the reported cause of death, pointing specifically to the leukemia diagnosis and the lack of an autopsy.
The former WWE icon, whose real name was Terry Bollea, reportedly died at his Florida residence. Though official sources have cited cardiac arrest and an underlying battle with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)—a blood cancer that affects white blood cells—Brooke is not convinced that this explanation tells the full story.
Brooke, who had been estranged from her father in recent years, stated she was unaware of any cancer diagnosis prior to his death. “I think it’s strange no autopsy was performed. Yes, you can die of a heart attack, but what caused the heart attack? That’s the real question,” said Brooke. She emphasized that her father had recently undergone successful heart surgery and was reportedly doing well post-operation, even engaging in breathing exercises.
According to Brooke, Hulk Hogan was under continuous medical care and regularly had blood panels done—especially before and after multiple surgeries. She recalled, “One of his doctors even said his blood was like that of a 25-year-old. He took exceptional care of his body, worked with anti-aging specialists, and underwent thorough testing. So how was leukemia never detected?”
She further questioned the legitimacy of the diagnosis, adding that there was no family history of cancer and that multiple clear blood reports made the leukemia claim questionable. “It just doesn’t add up,” Brooke concluded.
The shocking death of Hulk Hogan drew attention worldwide, given his iconic status in the world of professional wrestling. Emergency responders were dispatched to his Florida home following a call about cardiac arrest, as reported by TMZ. Footage from the scene showed paramedics attempting to revive him before transporting him to a hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
