Hulk Hogan Issues Statement On Racist Comments

- Hulk Hogan spoke to People.com and issued the following statement on the racist comments that have led to his WWE departure:

"Eight years ago I used offensive language during a conversation. It was unacceptable for me to have used that offensive language; there is no excuse for it; and I apologize for having done it. This is not who I am. I believe very strongly that every person in the world is important and should not be treated differently based on race, gender, orientation, religious beliefs or otherwise. I am disappointed with myself that I used language that is offensive and inconsistent with my own beliefs."
