Hulk Hogan Rips off His Clothes in Emotional TV Appearance: ‘This Suit Is Holding Me Down'

On Monday, Jan. 20, former wrestler Hulk Hogan revealed his emotions on the inauguration of Donald Trump in Washington, D.C., by tearing off his suit to reflect his excitement.

The 71-year-old appeared on Fox News to talk about the event, showing up wearing a black T-shirt, with a matching suit jacket, bandana and sunglasses to complete the look.

But he confessed one downside to the day, saying, "Everywhere I go, nobody recognizes me!" explaining that people didn't know it was him because he was wearing a suit jacket.

But he quickly fixed the issue as he exclaimed, "This suit is holding me down...If I wasn't so tired brother, I'd just rip off all my clothes."

He then gave Watters his microphone before doing just that, tearing the sleeves off of his suit jacket before ripping the black T-shirt that read, "Real American Beer," to show another shirt that said, "Trumpamania."

"I had a moment brother, I just had to do that," he said after he finished ripping off the clothes and sat back down next to Watters.

Hogan previously ripped his shirt off in excitement at the Republican National Convention in July when he took the stage to speak in support of Trump's nomination, calling the 78-year-old "my hero."
