Hulk Hogan Day: Florida to honor WWE icon on August 1; what to expect
Hulk Hogan or Terry Gene Bollea is getting the head-of-state treatment in Florida. Governor Ron DeSantis made the announcement in an X post. Hulk Hogan was the main draw for the first WrestleMania in 1985 and was a WWE fixture for years(AP) WWE icon Hulk Hogan passed away at the age of 71, of a heart attack, on July 24. He had spent most of his life in Florida. What to expect on Hulk Hogan Day 'In honor of a great Floridian, Hulk Hogan, we are lowering the flags at the capitol and in Pinellas County tomorrow,' DeSantis announced, besides declaring August 1 as Hulk Hogan Day in Florida. 'Rest in peace, brother,' DeSantis added in his post. 'He was a true Floridian through and through," he also said. Notably, Hogan entered the political limelight after a fiery speech at the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, where he praised 'Trumpmania' and Donald Trump – who was at that time the Presidential candidate. Hulk Hogan's appearance on stage was completed with his iconic shirt ripping-off move, at the time. Also Read | Brooke Hogan reveals why she stepped away from her father, Hulk's will Following his unfortunate demise, senior Republicans expressed their grief, including President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and House Speaker Mike Johnson. While Hogan died of a heart attack, the medical examiner noted he had previously had leukaemia and atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm. Hogan was pronounced dead at a hospital less than 90 minutes after medics arrived at his home in Clearwater to answer a call about a cardiac arrest on the morning of July 24, police said. The report said the cause of death was "natural." 'He had been dealing with some health issues, but I truly believed we would overcome them,' Hogan's wife Sky Daily posted on Instagram. 'This loss is sudden and impossible to process,' she added. 'To the world, he was a legend… but to me, he was my Terry.' Hogan was perhaps the biggest star in WWE's long history, known for both his larger-than-life personality and his in-ring exploits. He was the main draw for the first WrestleMania in 1985 and was a fixture for years, facing everyone from Andre The Giant and Randy Savage to The Rock and even WWE co-founder Vince McMahon.

Triple H does signature WWE water spray at White House
Triple H, the former wrestler and current Chief Content Officer of WWE, joined President Donald Trump on Thursday, as the latter signed an executive order restoring Presidential Fitness Test in schools. Triple H or Paul Michael Levesque is the son-in-law to Secretary of the Federal Education Department Linda McMahon. (AP) 'This is a wonderful tradition, and we're bringing it back,' Trump said of the fitness test that began in 1966 but was phased out during the Obama administration. The test includes 1-mile runs, sit-ups and stretching exercises, and is used to gauge young people's health and athleticism. Others who joined Trump while he signed the order included pro golfer Bryson DeChambeau and former New York Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor, a registered sex offender. Triple H does iconic water spray at White House | Watch In visuals shared by the White House, Triple H can be seen exiting through the doors. He takes a sip from a bottle before chucking it aside, and then proceeds to do the water spray, his introductory move from his days in the ring. 'ARE YOU READY… TO MAKE AMERICA FIT AGAIN,' the official White House handle posted. Triple H said of Trump's decision, 'I truly appreciate all that everybody is doing for the health and wellness for the entire country... I look forward to the opportunity to help make our youth healthy—help get them engaged in sports and let them learn what it takes to be successful in life.' Triple H or Paul Michael Levesque is married to Vince McMahon's daughter, Stephanie, and is thus the son-in-law to Secretary of the Federal Education Department Linda McMahon. The water spraying became synonymous with Triple H's entry during his 30 years of being a WWE wrestler, just as he made the Pedigree attack iconic in the ring. What experts feel about Presidential Fitness test The return of the exam brought mixed reactions from some who study exercise. Trump is putting a welcome focus on physical activity, but a test alone won't make America's children healthier, said Laura Richardson, a kinesiology professor at the University of Michigan. The exam is only a starting point that should be paired with lessons to help all students improve, she said. 'It's not just, you get a score and you're doomed,' said Richardson, whose teaching focuses on obesity. 'But you get a score, and we can figure out a program that really helps the improvement.'

Will the Final Boss return for SummerSlam? WWE fans are curious about The Rock's whereabouts
Cody Rhodes, John Cena and The Rock at Elimination Chamber 2025 (Image via WWE) SummerSlam 2025 will be held over the upcoming weekend on August 2 and 3, at MetLife Stadium, New Jersey. The stage and the city itself are getting ready to welcome the biggest stars of the ring, as they take center stage at the big event. Of course, the John Cena vs Cody Rhodes rematch is set to be the biggest attraction, but there is one other person fans are curious about - and that is none other than The Rock or should we say, The Final Boss. Will The Rock be at SummerSlam 2025? After The Rock's appearance at the end of the Elimination Chamber 2025 event saw John Cena turn heel, WWE fans have been expecting to see him back on the stage as the storyline progresses. But so far there has been no development on that front. Most people believed he would be at the WrestleMania event, after the big turning point at Elimination Chamber, but that turned out to be a bust. The fan theories have continued though. — ChandranTheMan (@ChandranTheMan) But not only was The Final Boss absent from the WrestleMania event back in April, he has had no interactions in the world of WWE since that press conference after John Cena's out-of-character heel turn. With the next big event knocking on WWE's doors, fans have wondered if The Rock will finally reappear at SummerSlam . But with what the chatter is so far, it looks like he is going to be a no-show here as well. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Knee Pain After 50? Try This Before Reaching for Pills Read More Undo Can fans expect a surprise at SummerSlam? Well, we never say never - so, while the chances of The Rock showing up at New Jersey for SummerSlam are pretty low, we also cannot rule it out completely. But if there are plans for a surprise entry, WWE is not doing a good job at it. After all, unless people are excited for it, it's not going to create any momentum. And after his no-show at WrestleMania, without any promo or surprise, this is falling on a flat surface. But one thing many fans have pointed out is that Cody Rhodes wore a watch that looked very much like the one The Rock posted when he returned. He also wore a similar pair of sunglasses as The Final Boss. Does this mean fans can see Rhodes turning on his principles for glory? Many fans had expected that after turning Cena heel, he would be ringside for the big match back in April. But that didn't happen! Now that there is going to be a rematch, fans are once again hoping that The Final Boss might show up, but they are keeping it on the down low after the previous disappointment. Whether he shows up or not, we will only know at the event - but chances are marginally low to say the least.
