This morning the news broke that Hulk Hogan had been removed from the WWE’s website, Shop and Tough Enough site following alleged racist comments.
Several hours later and a transcript of the comments made by Hulk Hogan were released online (seen at this link) and WWE released a statement confirming they had terminated his contract.
Booker T, who featured in a video several years ago where he used the “N” word took to Twitter to share his thoughts on Hogan and what was said:
20 years ago I made a huge mistake by saying something I shouldn't have on National TV.

It's 2015 and the n-word should be eradicated from the English language in my opinion.

I am shocked by the statements made by Hulk Hogan. It's unfortunate, but that's something that he's going to have to deal with.
