Overview
- Netflix made the four-part series Hulk Hogan: Real American available on Wednesday, built around his last long interview recorded three months before his July 2025 death.
- In the film, Hogan admits his 1991 denial of steroid use on The Arsenio Hall Show was false, saying it was all lies.
- After saying he gave 70% of his assets in his 2009 divorce, he describes falling into heavy use of painkillers including fentanyl, often mixed with vodka, a pattern his former manager Eric Bischoff corroborates.
- The documentary shows his sharp physical decline late in life and reports neck surgery complications shortly before he died on July 24, 2025 in Florida.
- The film revisits the $115 million Gawker verdict and the racist-remark fallout that strained his WWE standing, with commentary from figures such as Eric Bischoff and President Donald Trump.
