An ex-wrestler at a party convention? Probably unthinkable in Germany. In the USA, Hulk Hogan rips his T-shirt off at the Republican convention.
Former wrestler Hulk Hogan caused thunderous applause in the hall on the last evening of the Republican Party Convention. “Donald Trump is the strongest of them all,” he told the crowd in Milwaukee after first taking off his jacket and then ripping off his black T-shirt printed with a US flag – underneath he was wearing a sleeveless, bright red shirt that said “Trump – Vance 2024”. JD Vance is Trump’s vice presidential candidate.
From the stands, the newly elected presidential candidate listened to the ex-wrestler in an obviously good mood. The atmosphere in the hall boiled over in a way that had only been the case in a few previous situations, such as when he welcomed Trump. The 70-year-old Hogan also became famous through series and films. He once supported former President Barack Obama, a Democrat, but announced in 2011 that he would no longer do so.
