• “It was a blow to my heart” – Vince McMahon Gets Emotional While Remembering Hulk Hogan (Video)

During “TMZ Presents: The Real Hulk Hogan” on FOX, Vince McMahon said the following about Terry Bollea’s death:

“Shock. We just don’t want to think about someone, a family member or someone that close to you. You don’t think about them passing away. Terry had kicked out so to speak, of so many surgeries. I think he had like 20 surgeries on his back plus others on his knees and hip or something. And he, you know, he overcame all of that. It was a tremendous shock. It was a blow to my heart.”

Vince said the following about pushing Hogan as the face of the World Wrestling Federation in the 80s: “Just one-of-a-kind. I knew what America wanted. Charisma. Someone who is larger than life, and there is no one who fit that bell any more than Terry Bollea.”

McMahon got emotional while recalling the finish of WrestleMania 3: “After the pin 1-2-3, Hogan said, ‘Thank you, boss.’ Andre said, ‘No. Now you’re the boss.'”

• WWE Confiscated Karrion Kross Signs On RAW

While there were no “We Want Kross” chants on last night’s RAW, WWE security did confiscate Karrion Kross signs during the show. Here’s what the Wrestling Observer reported about it:

“You know they did confiscate some of the signs? Yeah, I mean nobody chanted. And I heard from several people at the show, and they said people thought people might chant. Nobody chanted. There were a few signs in the crowd. I didn’t see anyone taking them away, and I did see them later in the show, but someone who was there said, ‘Yeah, they absolutely took the signs away.'”

Both Karrion Kross and Scarlett have confirmed their WWE departures. According to Fightful Select, there’s a chance Kross could return, but for now it appears his departure is legitimate.

WrestleVotes further added: “For what it’s worth, there are people within WWE corporate — with no ties to creative or anything storyline-wise — who are under the impression that Karrion Kross and Scarlett are no longer with the company.”
