Former professional wrestler and actor Hulk Hogan struggled with a routine he has performed throughout his career during a surprise appearance in a Asset rally.

Hogan, real name Terry Bolléahas become a staunch supporter of Trump during the current election campaign, even going so far as to joke about body slamming Kamala Harris and questioning his ethnicity.

The former WWE champion, 76, was a surprise speaker at the gathering of Madison Square Gardenwhich also featured controversial appearances from Doctor Phil and actor Tony Hinchcliffe.

In typically over-the-top fashion, Hogan made his entrance into his theme song “Real American” by waving the American flag.

He then attempted to rip his shirt off his own chest, a routine he’s done since the 1980s, but ended up in a full-blown fight with the top.

In what was previously a smooth act for the grapplerHogan got into a real shirt collar brawl that seemed to last forever.

Eventually, Hogan got a hold of the garment and tore it in half to reveal a Trump shirt underneath.

His performance was widely mocked on social media. “An old Hulk Hogan struggling to rip his shirt off is such a perfect metaphor for the Trump campaign,” one person wrote.

Another said: “I honestly feel bad for everyone who grew up with Hulk Hogan as the GOAT. »

A third added: “Pretty funny Hulk Hogan can’t take his shirt off. Things are getting pretty geriatric in Trump world.”

A fourth told Hogan to “hang up, bro!” »

Hogan then gave a rousing speech to Trump fans, defending them against accusations of racism. “You know something, Trump-maniacs? I don’t see any stinking Nazis here. I don’t see any stinking domestic terrorists here,” said the Rocky III star.

“The only thing I see here is a group of hard-working men and women who are real Americans, brother. You know what I hear from my president and our president Donald Trump, he sounds real, bro.

He also took the opportunity to attack Harris, saying: “When I hear Kamala talking, it sounds, yeah, it sounds like a Hollywood script with a really, really (spitting sound) bad actress! »

Trump’s use of Hogan and Kid Rock for his campaign has been ridiculed by the likes of Pete Buttigieg. In Julythe transportation secretary said: “If your party has been consistently against unions, against a higher minimum wage, against things like paid family leave, against overtime, then it’s not because you found Hulk Hogan and Kid Rock and you put them on stage that makes you a friend of the worker.
