• “I almost shed a tear” – Top Female WWE Star On Brock Lesnar Seemingly Retiring At WrestleMania 42
During an interview with Adrian Hernandez, Tiffany Stratton was asked about her thoughts on her fellow Minnesota native Brock Lesnar seemingly retiring from WWE after his loss to Oba Femi at WrestleMania 42.
Stratton said she was sad and hopes to see The Beast return for one more match at SummerSlam 2026:
“When I saw Brock unlace his boots, I almost shed a tear. I was sad for him. He looked like he started crying a little bit too. He’s just a boy. It’s his first time living too.
So hopefully it’s not his last match. Hopefully in SummerSlam in Minnesota, we’ll get to see him. I think that would be iconic, retiring in your hometown. But yeah, I’m really sad but happy for him.”

• Hulk Hogan Reveals Insane Amount Of Fentanyl He Used To Wrestle In TNA
In a shocking revelation from the new Netflix series “Hulk Hogan: Real American,” the late 3-time WWE Hall of Famer admitted he was taking enough fentanyl to kill a human being just to get through his final years in the ring.
The documentary, which features Hogan’s last interview before he passed away in 2025, details a dark period in his life following his 2009 divorce from his wife, Linda.
Hogan explained that the divorce left him broke, forcing him to sign a contract with TNA Wrestling because he desperately needed the money. However, years of injuries had destroyed his back, making it nearly impossible for him to perform.
His back was in such bad shape that even moving a finger caused full-body spasms. He couldn’t even lie down in a bed and had to sleep in a chair.
To keep wrestling, he started using extreme amounts of fentanyl, including high-dose patches on his legs and fentanyl lollipops.
“I was taking 80 mg fentanyls, two in the morning, stuffing them under my gums here. I had two 300 mg patches of fentanyl on my legs and they gave me six 1500 mg fentanyl lollipops to eat.”
The sheer amount of drugs Hogan was using left medical professionals stunned.
“I went to the pharmacy, he goes, ‘You should be dead. We have never seen a human being take this much fentanyl.'”
For those who don’t know, Fentanyl is a highly potent synthetic opioid, approved for medical use as a pain reliever and anesthetic, that is primarily known today for its role in a severe, often fatal, illicit drug crisis. It is estimated to be 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine.
Hogan eventually left TNA in 2013 when his contract ended, having wrestled his final match a year earlier.
