Hulk Hogan, the pro wrestler who became a worldwide pop culture icon, helped take down Gawker and campaigned for President Trump, has died. He was 71.

Born Terry Gene Bollea and raised in Florida, Hogan found fame in the 1980s after triumphing over Iron Sheik to become the World Wrestling Federation’s heavyweight winner. The win sparked a phenomenon in the wrestling world known as “Hulkmania,” which he leveraged into a career outside of the sport through which he first rose to prominence.
