The 69 year old wrestler, who is understood to have undergone 11 back surgeries throughout his life, has gone on the record to say that his back problems were caused by his famous leg drop move.
Hulk Hogan has revealed that he can’t feel his legs after his nerves were cut during back surgery he had to undergo to try and repair years of damage suffered during his wrestling career.
The WWE legend reportedly told wrestling Hall Of Famer Kurt Angle, who shared the news on his podcast, that he now has to walk with a cane
“I thought he was using the cane because he has pain in his back. He doesn’t have any pain. He has nothing at all”, Angle said.
He said he felt sorrow for what Hogan, 69, has to deal with now: “That’s pretty serious, man. I really feel for Hogan.
“He put his heart and soul into the business and it ate him up”.
It is understood that this latest round of surgery is the eleventh he has had to go through.
Hogan has said in the past that his famous leg drops are what is causing his current health problems, going on the record to say he regrets using this particular move.
He previously said that he knew he had to retire after his sixth back surgery.
