Tony Schiavone Calls Out Troll After Hulk Hogan Tribute Turns Ugly

AEW broadcaster Tony Schiavone paid his respects to Hulk Hogan following the WWE Hall of Famer’s shocking death, but things quickly took a turn on social media when one user crossed the line.

Shortly after news of Hogan’s passing broke, Schiavone posted a tribute acknowledging Hogan’s importance to pro wrestling, writing, “Say what you want about Hulk Hogan, but his impact on pro wrestling is undeniable. RIP Hulkster. The end of an era.”

However, his tweet drew backlash from a user who posted a vulgar response saying, “F** HULK HOGAN,”* and “Hulk was an a*****.”*

Schiavone didn’t let the disrespect slide. He quote-retweeted the reply with a short but sharp message: “Stay classy, dude.” The post was accompanied by a rolling-eyes emoji, making it clear how he felt about the unnecessary negativity.

While public figures often expect mixed reactions, Schiavone’s decision to call out the comment in defense of Hogan’s legacy resonated with fans who believe respect should take priority in moments like these.
