Hulk Hogan Undergoes Surgery; Wants to Return to the Ring

August 10, 2009

In a segment taped for the VH-1 show "Brooke Knows Best," Hull Hogan revealed that he wants to make a return to pro wrestling and opted for laser surgery to repair some serious back issues that have been causing him extreme pain and even numbness in his legs. The procedure is done entirely with lasers, and is a much less invasive type of surgery than having to go under the knife, which could have side effects resulting in Hogan never being able to return to the ring. Following the airing of the procedure on Brooke’s show, Hulk noted that he was feeling better immediately after the laser treatment.
