Donald Trump Puts ‘Big Russia Meeting’ on Hold for Netflix’s Hulk Hogan Docuseries

In the new Hulk Hogan docuseries, Hulk Hogan: Real American, celebrities, top-tier wrestlers, filmmakers, and sports authorities step up to the mic to talk about Hulk Hogan, born Terry Bollea, the man behind the red and yellow who died in July 2025. A divisive figure who helped elevate professional wrestling into a mainstream global spectacle, Hogan’s legacy is explored from every angle. But one person who makes a surprise appearance that viewers likely were not expecting is the current president of the United States, Donald Trump.

In Episode 2, titled “Hulkamania,” the docuseries explores the rise of Hulk Hogan as a celebrity and the mainstream acceptance of wrestling, as events like WrestleMania became star-studded affairs. “It was like John Lennon or Paul McCartney in their heyday,” said manager Jimmy Hart. “People just came out of the woodwork.”
