Talking about his interactions with the legendary wrestler on Sportskeeda Wrestling's BroDown, Russo recalled an incident that happend during their time together in TNA. The two were talking about Jeff Hardy and his signature move, the Swanton bomb but the Hulkster misspoke, confusing the name of the move with an asian snack.
"My favorite memory working with Hulk was when we were in a production meeting at TNA and we were going over a match with Jeff Hardy and we're getting to the end of the match and Hulk says, 'Yeah, and then he could hit him with that wonton', bro. I'm sorry, man. I'm sorry, Mac. I lost it. I lost it with the wonton, bro," Russo said. [28:50 onwards]Hulk Hogan was 71 years of age when he passed away due to a cardiac arrest. The Hulkster was a pioneer of wrestling during his time as an active wrestler and held multiple world titles across promotions. He also has one the longest WWE Championship reigns in history, which was only recently surpassed by Roman Reigns.
