Hulk Hogan training in hopes of final match at Wrestlemania
After nine back surgeries, 61-year-old Hulk Hogan said his weight is down, and he's been training in hopes of a final match next year at Wrestlemania 31.
Hogan spoke to Chuck Carroll and told the host that all he needs is approval from WWE's Vince McMahon and Triple H to make it a reality at the new Levi's Stadium next March.
“At the end of the day, it's me getting Vince's ear, and me getting in Triple H's ear, and talking to them into letting me rock the house one more time,” Hogan said. “[John] Cena would be the guy I'd love to get in the ring with, you know, if I could irritate Stone Cold so much he'd come out of retirement, I'd love to have him open a can of whoop ass on me and see what happens.”
After his sixth back surgery, doctors told Hogan that he'd never walk again, but since then – three surgeries later -- he's cut down on his eating and begun training.
“My back's cool. I never dreamed that if we were to digress and wind backward almost three and a half years ago when I was sitting in a wheelchair after back surgery number six, the doctors told me and my new wife I'd never walk again,” Hogan said. “After three more back surgeries, I was up on my feet moving around.”
