However, his spiritual commitment has emerged as a cornerstone of his legacy as he shared a powerful reflection on his spiritual awakening.
Hogan said via TBN:
“I was sick and tired of myself. You know what I mean? Just the two people in here. My real self and the ego.
"And I decided to turn back to my faith and one of the things I did was I put that crazy tattoo on my back - 'Immortal', meaning you know, I accepted Christ as my saviour. And he died for my sins and I’ll live forever.
"So I put that on my back. And so many think, ‘oh it’s the immortal Hulk Hogan’. But no, it was for that reason that I did that.
"It’s gonna be important to me moving forward is being the vessel to spread this message because it’s the only truth that there is.
"Everything else is just temporary. Everything, the fame, the money, the ego, the physical look - everything is just temporary."
