Hulk Hogan has been fired by WWE after a racist rant has been made public.
Suspicion began overnight when WWE scrubbed all mentions of Hogan from WWE.com and Hogan fueled speculation with a cryptic tweet:
In the storm I release control,God and his Universe will sail me where he wants me to be,one love. HH

The National Enquirer has broken the story that the reason for this quick and decisive action is audio revealed in the sex tape scandal.
On the tape, Hogan is caught ranting about his daughter Brooke dating a black man.
In pillow talk with Heather Clem, then-wife of Bubba the Love Sponge, Hogan admitted to being a racist.
Hogan said
She is making some real bad decisions now… My daughter Brooke jumped sides on me. I spent $2-3 million on her music career, I’ve done everything liek a jackass for her.
The one option Brooke had, Brooke’s career besides me, is [to] sell beat records.
I don’t know if Brooke was fucking the black guy’s son
I mean, I don’t have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, fucking n*ggers. But then when it comes to nice people and shit, and whatever.
I mean, I’d rather if she was going to fuck some n*gger, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n*gger worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player.
I guess we’re all a little racist…
At first it was believed that the minor racist rant on this video was the cause:
But the newly released info from the Enquirer was certainly more direct and damning.
This is a breaking story and more should develop soon.
