During an episode of his podcast, Kurt Angle, a former professional wrestler, claimed that legendary wrestler and actor, who goes by the name of Hogan, has no feeling in his own lower body after having back surgery.
He stated that the former wrestler has been using canes for several months.
According to Angle, after having back surgery, the nerves in his lower body were cut.
He claimed that due to this, Hogan has to use a cane to get around. He said that the actor has no pain, and he can’t feel anything on his legs.
Kurt Angle stated that he felt sorry for the actor, who goes by Terry Gene Bollea, because he put his soul and heart into the business.
During a recent event held in Philadelphia, he said that during a conversation with him, the actor revealed that he had back surgery and that he was unable to feel his lower body.
Oh this is so sad.

During his speech, Angle paid tribute to Hogan, who he referred to as the face of professional wrestling.
He noted that if WWE were to hold an event during the 30th anniversary of its flagship show, which is known as Raw, then the event would be held under the Hogan name.
Despite his various health issues, Angle praised Hogan, saying that he was the one who “revolutionized the industry.”
He hasn’t responded to Angle’s claims yet. In 2020, the 69-year-old posted photos of himself going through an MRI.
He has had numerous back operations, both before and after he retired from WWE.
Known for his numerous health issues, including back, hip, knee, and spine injuries, Hogan has been referred to as one of the best professional wrestling performers of all time.
In 2021, his daughter Brooke revealed that her dad had undergone over 20 medical procedures in the last 10 years.
Hogan had his shoulders scoped, and he also had his entire arm and shoulder tied up last year.
In 2008, he was named the most popular wrestler in the world. He had previously stated that he wanted to return to the WWE.
