WWE, Triple H pay tribute to Hulk Hogan

This past Friday night on SmackDown, Triple H and the WWE locker room kicked off the show from the stage, where they paid tribute to the late Hulk Hogan, who died at the age of 71 after a cardiac arrest.

The crowd chanted his name in unison, while Triple H called him a wrestler who 'captivated' and 'inspired' millions of people around the world.

"Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday, we lost one of the biggest and most globally recognized icons in the world. A man I grew up watching, was fortunate enough to share the ring with, and like so many of us were honored to call a friend. The truth is, he captivated millions of people and inspired them around the globe. We would not be standing here right now, all of us together, if it was not for him," The Game told the WWE Universe on SmackDown's opening segment.

Hulk Hogan's last WWE appearance was during the RAW premiere on Netflix in Los Angeles on January 6 earlier this year.
