Netflix released their new Hulk Hogan: Real American docuseries on Wednesday focusing on the late WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, life and wrestling career.
One of the topics discussed included Hogan’s thoughts about how him joining TNA Wrestling in 2009 helped save him financially following his divorce at the time.
“After the divorce, I had no money. I was broke. TNA saved me.”
Hogan also revealed that he was taking a deadly amount of fentanyl during his time working in TNA Wrestling.
“I was taking 80-milligram fentanyls, two in the morning, stuffing them under my gums. I had two 300-milligram patches of fentanyl on my legs, and they gave me six, 1,500-milligram fentanyl lollipops to eat. I went to the pharmacy. He goes, ‘You should be dead. We have never seen a human being take this much fentanyl.”
Hogan worked for TNA Wrestling, then known as Impact Wrestling, from 2009 to 2013.
