Hogan is dead, but Hulkamania lives on

The news hit like a steel chair to the soul. On July 24, 2025, Terry Gene Bollea — the man the world knew as Hulk Hogan — passed away at his home in Clearwater, Florida, following a cardiac arrest. He was 71. While tributes poured in from across the US, few outside the region may realize the profound impact Hogan had on the Arab world — a place where Hulkamania was not just a pop culture phenomenon, but a childhood rite of passage. Born on Aug. 11, 1953, Hogan’s rise to fame in the 1980s coincided with a time when American entertainment was beginning to seep into global consciousness.
