Wrestling icon and entertainer Hulk Hogan made a dramatic appearance at the Republican National Convention, tearing off his shirt on stage to rally support for presidential candidate Donald Trump.
The former US President delivered his first public speech since surviving an assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania rally the previous weekend.
Trump became emotional as he recounted the moment a bullet grazed his ear during the incident.
Security footage showed Trump being rushed off the stage by Secret Service agents after multiple gunshots were fired. The video captured him dropping to the ground, clutching his right ear as shots rang out.
On the fourth day of the convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Hulk Hogan energized the crowd by waving an American flag and leading chants of “USA!” He entered the stage to his wrestling theme tune “Real American” and greeted the audience with one of his signature phrases, “Well, let me tell you something brother!!”
Reflecting on the recent attempt on Trump’s life, Hogan declared, “What happened last week… when they took a shot at my hero…. They tried to kill the greatest president of the United States!” His impassioned speech continued, “Enough was enough!”
Hogan, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, then rallied the crowd with a call to action, “Let Trumpmania run wild, brother! Let Trumpmania rule again! Let Trumpmania make America great again!”
The 70-year-old wrestling legend likened Trump and his vice-presidential running mate JD Vance to the dynamic duo he once formed with “Macho Man” Randy Savage, known as The Mega Powers. In a theatrical gesture reminiscent of his wrestling days, Hogan ripped off his shirt to reveal a red T-shirt underneath emblazoned with the Trump-Vance presidential ticket.
