In a twist that left fans stunned, wrestling icon Hulk Hogan, known for his larger-than-life presence in the WWE ring, quietly took part in one of the most meaningful moments of his life — just months before his death at age 71.
While many knew Hulk Hogan as the 6’7″ powerhouse who slammed giants and shouted “Whatcha gonna do, brother?!”, few knew the depth of his spiritual transformation in his final years. Beneath the muscles and celebrity, Terry Gene Bollea had returned to the faith he once drifted from — and just before his passing, he made it known to the world in the most powerful way.
💧 Hulk Hogan Was Baptized at 70
In late 2023, Hulk Hogan shared a deeply personal moment with fans: a video of his baptism, alongside his new wife Sky Daily, at Indian Rocks Baptist Church in Florida. It wasn’t a publicity stunt. It wasn’t for show. In his own words, it was “the greatest day of my life.”
“Total surrender and dedication to Jesus is the greatest day of my life. No worries, no hate, no judgment… only love,” Hogan wrote.
He looked at peace. Clean. Renewed. And completely devoted to the path he had rediscovered.
⛪ A Journey Back to God
Hogan had first accepted Christ at the age of 14 but admitted in interviews that fame, fortune, and the chaos of life had pulled him away. “I derailed,” he said frankly.
But when he hit a breaking point — emotionally and spiritually — he found himself back in the Bible. “I just surrendered,” he told CBN News. “If I’m with my Lord and Savior, I’m all the way in.”
And he truly was. The Hulkster, who once battled titans in the ring, began fighting a very different kind of battle — a spiritual one. He started speaking more openly about his beliefs, urging others to “turn to the truth… seek Him and you shall find.”
🙏 His Final Message Was One of Hope
In his last public remarks about his faith, Hulk Hogan spoke with clarity and urgency:
“It’s a spiritual war in this fallen world… accept Christ, knowing that He would heal the land, heal this nation, and heal the people.”
Though his death on July 24 came as a shock — from cardiac arrest at his home in Clearwater, Florida — his recent spiritual rebirth added profound meaning to his final chapter.
This wasn’t just the end of a wrestling legend. It was the peaceful exit of a man who had made peace with his past, embraced his faith, and walked boldly into eternity — not with bravado, but with grace.
Hulk Hogan may have worn the persona of a warrior, but in his last days, he chose to be a witness.
Rest in peace, brother. You truly went out with your heart full.
