WWE Unveils Hulk Hogan Statue for WrestleMania 42

WWE has paid tribute to Hulk Hogan during WrestleMania 42 weekend in Las Vegas by unveiling a new bronze statue honoring the wrestling legend.

The statue was revealed at WWE World on April 17, 2026, with Triple H joined by Hogan’s son Nick Hogan and longtime manager Jimmy Hart for the unveiling ceremony. The bronze figure captures one of Hogan’s most recognizable poses, featuring his signature ear cup and an American flag incorporated into the design.

Triple H shared images from the event on social media, accompanying them with the caption “Immortal,” a direct reference to Hogan’s long-standing nickname, “The Immortal One.” The tribute comes as WWE continues to honor Hogan’s legacy following his passing in 2025.

In addition to the statue, WWE is hosting a “Hulkamania Forever” exhibit at WWE World throughout WrestleMania week. The display includes Hogan’s ring gear, personal memorabilia, and interactive features highlighting key moments from his career. Nick Hogan visited the exhibit during the weekend and reflected on his father’s impact on the wrestling industry.

WWE has also announced that Hogan’s iconic match against Andre the Giant at WrestleMania III will be inducted as this year’s “Immortal Moment” during the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony. The honor is part of WWE’s ongoing effort to spotlight historic performances that have shaped the sport.

Outside of WWE programming, a new documentary chronicling Hogan’s life and career is scheduled for release on Netflix on April 22, 2026. The film will provide an in-depth look at his influence on professional wrestling and popular culture over several decades.

Multiple tributes took place throughout WrestleMania 42 weekend, reinforcing WWE’s commitment to preserving Hogan’s place in wrestling history. The statue remains on display at WWE World for visitors to view throughout the event.
