Hulk Hogan humiliated yet again at beer party after responding to Kamala Harris’ bodyslam threats
MAGA fan Hulk Hogan continues to find himself at the middle of controversy after threatening to throw Kamala Harris to the bottom while promoting his latest enterprise, Real American Beer, and campaigning for former President Donald J. Trump.
Once a towering figure on the planet of skilled wrestling, Hogan, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, is not any stranger to public criticism. But he can have been shocked when someone crossed his path and mocked him for his cartoonish behavior and conservative politics for the second time in as many weeks.
His latest encounter took place in Medford, Massachusetts, where comedian Robby Roadsteamer accosted the previous WWE star for the second time.
The comedian, dressed as a bear, sang a remixed version of Hogan’s song “Real American,” replacing the lyrics with a song that poked fun at Trump and his political beliefs.
Roadsteamer posted a video of the encounter on his X profile. He began, “I met Hulk Hogan (again!). I dressed up as a bear and sang his own theme song to him (again!) with lyrics about MAGA, Trump, and immigrants eating cats!! Then the cops and his henchmen took me away (again!) Get creative fam… Here comes the big blue wave #TrumpIsACowardlyWeirdo #MAGAIsWeird #HulkHogan.”

While the retired wrestler, who rose to fame within the Eighties as WWE’s hottest wrestler, stood and posed in front of an AI-generated poster of his own muscles and far younger face, the comedian debuted his own remix.
“Trump is the real criminal,” he sang. “He thinks immigrants eat cats. Trump is the real criminal. Fight for the alt-right. Fight our alt-right.”
As he was led away by security, he shouted, “Did you miss me? No political violence. No political violence here. I feel strong about martial law.”
Fans began to chime in and criticize Trump.
“I used to think Hogan was cool until Trump came along. He needs to go back to selling unlicensed games,” one person said he tweeted.
“I wonder if he knows or cares how many black fans he had,” one other said. he said“When I used to be a child I loved Hulk Hogan, as did all my peers, but he rejected his heritage.
Third person he wrote“The characters even appear in plush costumes.”
Someone else he said“@RobbyRoadsteame had the nerve to diss racist MAGA supporter Terry “Hulk Hogan” Bollea oh… and yet one more thing.”
This isn’t the primary time the “Rocky III” star has been streamed by Roadsteamer. Just a couple of weeks earlier, in August, the social media star appeared with the wrestler during one other promotional event.
This time, Roadsteamer donned a “MAGA Powers” T-shirt and asked, “Whatcha gonna do when we drop the big boot on the trans and everything. Does it work, bro?”
Hogan, a loud and proud Trump supporter who spoke at the Republican National Convention, still makes headlines promoting his beer and campaigning for the fact star-turned-politician. The athlete’s comments remind people of his bigoted past and why so many fans have given up their yellow T-shirts and red bandanas.
A very egregious incident occurred on August 19 at a bar in Medina, Ohio, when Hogan grabbed a microphone and launched right into a tirade about Vice President Kamala Harris.
According to a video recorded by witnesses, while intoxicated and egged on by the well-wishers, Hogan made racially offensive comments to Harris, mockingly asking if she was an “Indian.”
He even threatened to “body-throw” her, comparing his wrestler persona to political violence.

The tirade didn’t go unnoticed. When the video hit the web, it quickly went viral, with TMZ posting the video.
The critical response was immediate, with many individuals once again starting to query Hogan’s character and his standing within the entertainment industry.
Among those that responded was filmmaker Todd Phillips, who was working on a biopic about Hogan’s life starring Chris Hemsworth. The Hollywood executive announced the project had been shelved due to his actions.
“I like what we were trying to do, but it’s not going to work for me,” Phillips told Variety.
Hogan’s history of racist behavior is well-documented. In 2015, WWE severed all ties with the previous wrestling icon after a leaked audio recording revealed he had repeatedly used the N-word in reference to his daughter’s relationships. The brand, despite its long history with the star, removed him from its Hall of Fame and removed his name from its platform.
Although Hogan later apologized and was reinstated by WWE in 2018, his public image suffered significantly, and he never fully recovered from it.
As Hogan continues his promotional tour and campaigns for Trump, the incidents function a stark reminder of how his beliefs impact his legacy.
