Hulk Hogan was one of the biggest names of the 80s and 90s – but spent the past decade or two largely out of the limelight.
But his career has experienced a sudden resurgence over the past six months.
And the leader of Hulkamania just revealed why you might soon find yourself addressing the former World Champion as, “Secretary Bollea.”
Hulkamania ran wild on Democrats in 2024
“As an entertainer, I try to stay out of politics, but after everything that’s happened to our country over the past four years and everything that happened last weekend, I can no longer stay silent.”
Those were the words of the Immortal Hulk Hogan at the Republican National Convention, just days after the first of two assassination attempts against Donald Trump.
And good to his word, the man with the largest arms in the world was anything but silent when it comes to Trump versus first President Joe Biden, and then Vice President Kamala Harris.
Hogan tirelessly campaigned for the Trump-Vance ticket.
He even showed up at the President-elect’s rally at Madison Square Garden (MSG) – a venue the Hulkster has sold out countless times during his career in the squared-circle.
And Trump has been grateful for Hogan’s support and loyalty.
So grateful, in fact, the two might be seeing much more of each other over the next four years.
Hulk’s three “demandments” – training, vitamins, and saying your prayers
The man with the “24-inch pythons” recently joined Brian Kilmeade on Fox News to reveal big news.
During the interview, Hogan let the cat out of the bag that he may be joining the Trump Administration.
🚨WOW! PRESIDENT TRUMP MAY PICK HULK HOGAN TO RUN THE PRESIDENT’S COUNCIL ON PHYSICAL FITNESS!
“My president said, ‘You know something, you’d be great to run the President’s Council on Physical Fitness,'” Hogan said.

Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, told the story of a backstage conversation he had at MSG.
“At the end of the day, when I was in the back at Madison Square Garden after the whole rally, we were talking about Robert Kennedy,” Hogan recounted. “I was talking about nutrition, and how many foreign countries won’t even let their people eat the food that we eat here in America. It’s so bad, and it’s poisoned a generation of kids. And at the end of the day, we start talking about physical fitness. My president said, ‘You know something, you’d be great to run the President’s Council on Physical Fitness.’”
In that position, the once leader of World Championship Wrestling’s New World Order faction, could encourage children to train, eat their vitamins, and say their prayers.
The Real American would fit right in with Trump’s past President’s Council on Physical Fitness.
During his first term, Trump appointed the other hulk – Lou Ferrigno of The Incredible Hulk fame – footballers Bill Belichick and Herschel Walker, along TV host Dr. Oz to fill seats on the council.
President Joe Biden caused a big stink over Oz and Walker remaining on the council in 2022 when both announced bids for the U.S. Senate as Republican candidates.
A 35-year tag team partnership
Trump and Hogan go way back.
The 13-time World Champion has been friends with Trump for three-and-a-half decades.
Their relationship dates all the way back to WrestleMania IV which was held at Trump Plaza in Atlantic City.
The following year, Trump invited Hogan and the then-World Wrestling Federation back for WrestleMania V.
Hogan played a major role in both shows, including winning the WWF Title from Macho Man Randy Savage in the main event of the second event.
At the first event, the Immortal One even heavily featured Trump in his pre-match promo.
With both regarded as loyal, sometimes to a fault, Hogan and Trump’s friendship has lasted all the way to this day.
