Hulk Hogan rolled back the years when he tossed Frankie LaPenna through a table recently.
The WWE Hall of Famer had an altercation with the social media star at a Hooters restaurant. He has had a busy week already before the attack. He released his new “Real American Beer” this week, before having his Twitter account hacked and seeing it promote a crypto scam.
The fight between Hulk Hogan and Frankie LaPenna was clearly staged, and in good faith. In a video posted to LaPenna’s Instagram, it showed the pair tussling on top of a table in Hooters. They were both grabbing for a replica WWE title, fighting to be the one to lift it above their head.
The back-and-forth was reminiscent of Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar’s infamous segment before WrestleMania 31. Hulk Hogan yelled, “That’s not your belt Chump. I’m the Champ!” before losing his grip on the belt.
However, in a bitter move, Hogan slapped the butt of LaPenna. The influencer wears a fake behind for comedy in his videos, and drew attention to it with the Hulkster’s mighty slap. He then through the man holding the belt through a table, as the Hooters customers and servers looked on in shock.
The bitterness in losing the tug-of-war was reminiscent of Hogan childishly pulling Sycho Sid out of the 1992 Royal Rumble. Hogan may have lost the struggle for the belt, but he definitely did not put Frankie LaPenna over in that Hooters.
While Hulk Hogan admitted he will never wrestle again, at least he seems to be having fun getting physical in social media clips like this one.
Hulk Hogan Could Run For President

“Well, you know something, we need somebody in there that’s got some common sense, you know what I’m saying?” Hogan said. “So if you need a President or a Vice President, I’ll volunteer and take this country over. I’ll rule with an iron fist, a flat tax, nothing but common sense. I know right from wrong, brother.”
Hogan previously claimed he wanted to run for office in 2000, so he does have previous in making these claims.
