Netflix’s Hulk Hogan Doc Uses His Final Interview to Reexamine His Fall and Legacy

The four-part series reframes the wrestling icon’s public image through his own late-life admissions and corroboration from family and colleagues.

Overview

  • The four-part Netflix series, which premiered Wednesday, features Hogan’s final on-camera interview recorded months before his July 2025 death.
  • Hogan says he reached “rock bottom” during his divorce, recalling he sat on a bathroom floor with a gun in his mouth after backlash to a 2009 Rolling Stone remark.
  • In a detailed account of pain management, he describes taking 80 mg fentanyl tablets under his gums, wearing 300 mg patches on both legs, and using 1,500 mg lollipops, with a pharmacist telling him he should be dead.
  • He claims he gave Linda 70% of his assets and was left broke, saying a TNA deal “saved” him, while Eric Bischoff and Jeremy Borash recount he was in no condition to perform and dependent on pills and alcohol.
  • The doc includes a surprise White House interview with President Donald Trump that director Bryan Storkel says Hogan personally helped arrange.
