Undertaker Pays Tribute to Hulk Hogan
The professional wrestling world is mourning the death of WWE legend, Hulk Hogan, who died at the age of 71 on Thursday.
Hogan's family confirmed to US Weekly he has indeed passed away. TMZ reports that Hogan suffered cardiac arrest on Thursday morning.
Since news broke of Hogan's tragic death, there has been an outpouring of condolences from wrestling stars and fans alike, including from the Undertaker.
"The wrestling world has lost a true legend," the Undertaker, whose real name is Mark Calaway, wrote. "His contributions to our business are immeasurable and for that I am appreciative."
"Thank you, Hulk Hogan," he concluded.

Hogan and the Undertaker squared off for three televised singles matches during their respective careers, one of which happened at Survivor Series in 1991, when Undertaker beat Hogan to become then-WWF champion for the first time.
The match didn't go off without some controversy, though, as Hogan had claimed Undertaker hurt him in the match, something Undertaker has since denied in an interview with ESPN.
Undertaker also admitted he was not "overly friendly" with Hogan upon his return to the company in 2002 and he revealed on his podcast that he didn't exactly feel bad for Hogan when he was booed in his final WWE appearance in January.
Even though there may have still been some animosity between the two, clearly it wasn't enough for "The Deadman" to not pay his respects to a fellow legend.
