Wrestling Icon Hulk Hogan Dies at 71, Fans and Peers Pay Tribute

Hulk Hogan passed away Thursday at age 71 after suffering a cardiac arrest at his Clearwater, Florida, home. Born Terry Bollea, he became a six-time WWE Champion and the face of Hulkamania during wrestling’s 1980s boom.

Key tributes:

Stone Cold Steve Austin: “Larger than life…His influence will be forever.”

The Rock: Recalled catching Hogan’s headband at age 12 and later main-eventing WrestleMania X8 with him.

President Trump: “Strong, tough, smart, with the biggest heart.”

VP Vance: “Beers together next time will have to be on the other side.”

Chelsea Green Challenges Cardi B Ahead of SummerSlam, Hypes Netflix’s ‘WWE: Unreal’

New York, July 24 – Women’s United States Champion Chelsea Green has sent a stark warning to SummerSlam 2025 host Cardi B, declaring she’s ready to confront the rapper if she steps into Green’s championship path. Speaking to ClutchPoints, Green said she’s not planning an ambush—yet—and has custom ring gear on standby.

Green’s rivalry with Cardi B dates back to December 2024, when Green paraded her inaugural U.S. title in Disneyland and challenged the rapper to a match. Cardi’s delayed social-media response reignited the feud ahead of next month’s MetLife Stadium event.

Meanwhile, Green is also front and center in WWE: Unreal, Netflix’s upcoming behind-the-scenes docuseries debuting July 29. She says the series will chronicle her decade-long journey, from multiple injuries and her 2021 WWE release to the hard-fought title win that sparked this very beef at SummerSlam.

Shawn Michaels Stands by Disastrous Crown Jewel Finale

Shawn Michaels says he has no regrets about his one-night return at WWE Crown Jewel 2018, despite the DX vs Brothers of Destruction tag match being widely derided as a “train wreck.” On The Undertaker’s podcast, the Hall of Famer called the flawed bout a fitting capstone to his in-ring career, arguing that a single blemish among hundreds of successes doesn’t tarnish his legacy.

Now serving as WWE’s Senior Vice President of Talent Development & Creative, Michaels maintains that ending his career on a “completely bonkers” note was emblematic of his Heartbreak Kid persona and true to the spirit of D-Generation X.

AEW Insiders Deny Any Goldberg Signing Talks

AEW sources have emphatically shut down speculation that Goldberg will join the promotion following his post-WWE farewell match. According to multiple insiders speaking to WrestleVotes Radio, there have been no discussions behind the scenes, and Tony Khan’s team has no interest in pursuing the former WCW champion.

Beyond AEW’s stance, industry observers note Goldberg remains under an exclusive WWE contract, creating a legal barrier that prevents any cross-promotional signing. With AEW riding high on the success of All In: Texas, the company appears focused on building its own momentum rather than investing in a part-time legend.

Former NXT Star Jakara Jackson Signs with TNA

Jakara Jackson, released by WWE NXT in early May, has quickly rebounded by signing with TNA. Under her new ring name Mara Sadè, the 30-year-old made a surprise Impact! appearance as The IInspiration’s mystery tag partner against The Elegance Brand this week, and a TNA press release confirmed her contract. Jackson’s rapid transition—from a Meta-Four member in NXT to an indie standout—underscores TNA’s strategy of snapping up polished young talent looking for fresh opportunities.
