Eric Bischoff Remembers Hulk Hogan on FOX News – Eric Bischoff, longtime friend and business partner of Hulk Hogan, appeared on The Story with Martha MacCallum on FOX News to reflect on the passing of the wrestling icon earlier today. Bischoff, who was working closely with Hogan as Chief Media Officer of the newly announced Real American Freestyle League, expressed deep shock and sadness after learning of his friend’s death.
“It still hasn’t really set in,” Bischoff admitted. “I learned this morning about Hulk’s passing ironically while watching FOX News… It hasn’t truly sunk in yet.”
During the emotional interview, Bischoff was asked what he most wanted people to remember about the man behind the persona. He took the opportunity to draw a clear line between “Hulk Hogan,” the legendary character known across the globe, and “Terry Bollea,” the private man he knew personally.
“I feel like I knew Terry Bollea. Terry Bollea was different than Hulk Hogan,” Bischoff explained. “Terry Bollea, the man, was kind. He was generous to a fault. He was loyal. He just had a big heart. And until you got to know Terry Bollea, you were overwhelmed with the character Hulk Hogan. That was his life. But he really was one of the kindest, most generous people that I have ever met.”
Bischoff also shared insight into Hogan’s personal transformation in recent years, particularly his deepening faith. He noted that Hogan’s baptism was a turning point in his spiritual life.
“In the last seven years, six, seven, eight years, in particular, he really got so much closer to his faith,” Bischoff said. “He was so proud to go through that baptism and just embrace his faith to a level that he never really had prior. And it brought joy to him. And I’m grateful, very grateful for that.”
As fans across the world mourn the loss of one of wrestling’s most beloved figures, Bischoff’s heartfelt tribute offers a rare glimpse into the man behind the legend—a man remembered not just for what he accomplished in the ring, but for who he was outside of it.
