Booker T issues statement on Hulk Hogan racist comments

Booker T comments on Hulk Hogan controversy

Hulk Hogan’s racial slurs have shaken the world of pro wrestling and several WWE superstars have come forward with their comments regarding the incident involving the WWE Hall of Famer. As noted previously, Hogan was caught making racial remarks towards a black guy that his daughter Brooke was dating.

The detailed transcript of the tape was leaked in public by Radar Online and The National Enquirer where Hogan was heard talking to Bubba the Love Sponge’s wife Heather Clem, the same woman involved in a scandal with him. Since then, WWE terminated his contract and have removed him from any mention.

And fellow WWE Hall of Famer Booker T has commented on the situation as he posted his thoughts on Twitter today in response to the racist comments. Booker who was trending worldwide on Twitter this morning due to his infamous “coming for you” promo in WCW posted the following tweets:

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.
