The death of professional wrestling's most recognizable showman sparked reactions from the worlds of entertainment and politics.

Alachua County School Board member Sarah Rockwell is facing criticism for a Facebook post regarding Hulk Hogan's reported death. Her comment, deemed insensitive, sparked outrage and accusations of poor judgment.

In death, Hulk Hogan is being remembered for a very controversial affair the WWE icon had with his daughter's best friend in 2007.

Hulk Hogan's wife, Sky Daily Hogan, broke her silence for the first time following the wrestler's death. "I wasn’t ready for this…and my heart is in pieces," she wrote in part on Instagram on July 25.

Hulk Hogan evolved from a sports entertainer to lifestyle brand through authenticity and expansion, with recent ventures that included a beer brand and freestyle wrestling organization.
