Hulk Hogan on the BBC: Racist comments were 'biggest mistake' of my life

In a UK exclusive, Hulk Hogan has told 5 live making racist remarks was the "stupidest thing" he ever did.

In July a video emerged of the former wrestler making racist slurs and he was subsequently fired by WWE.

Hogan told Dan Walker fans had stood by him, but said he felt WWE "had to do what was best for their business."

"It doesn't even matter that it was said in private. I never should have said it," he added.

STAMFORD, Conn., February 21, 2014 – WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan has returned to WWE (NYSE:WWE) and will host WrestleMania® 30 on Sunday, April 6 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.

His last WWE appearance was in December 2007, where he appeared at the 15th anniversary of Monday Night Raw.

“We are thrilled that Hulk Hogan has returned home to WWE,” said WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon. “It’s fitting to have him help us celebrate 30 years of WrestleMania and usher in a new era with the launch of WWE Network.”

“Words cannot express how excited I am to be back in the WWE family,” said Hulk Hogan. “I only have one question for the WWE Universe: whatcha gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild as the host of WrestleMania 30?”
