Hulk Hogan Dropped By WWE Over Racist Rant: 'I Am Disappointed In Myself'



Hours after news broke that wrestling pro Hulk Hogan used racial slurs, his daughter, Brooke, took to Facebook in his defense.

The 27-year-old singer and model penned a heartfelt poem asking fans for their forgiveness, claiming "We all can make mistakes and carry ugly scars."

Hogan also posted a collaged image featuring various family photographs with her dad.

Hulk Hogan, in an exclusive interview with People magazine, owned up to his prior mistakes, stating "Eight years ago I used offensive language during a conversation. It was unacceptable for me to have used that offensive language; there is no excuse for it; and I apologize for having done it."

Although Hulk has publicly apologized, it hasn't stopped WWE from terminating his contract, removing all traces of him from its Superstars page and Hall of Fame, as well as merchandise. In a public statement, the organization said, "

"WWE terminated its contract with Terry Bollea. WWE is committed to embracing and celebrating individuals from all backgrounds as demonstrated by the diversity of our employees, performers and fans worldwide."
