The wrestling world is still reeling from the death of global icon Hulk Hogan, but behind the scenes, an even more explosive shockwave is ripping his once-mighty family apart. What the public believed to be a strong, united dynasty has collapsed into betrayal, bitterness, and a vicious inheritance war between his two children, Nick and Brooke Hogan.

Hogan’s sudden passing on July 24, 2025, left millions in mourning, but the real drama began when details of his will emerged. Insiders confirm that Nick Hogan has inherited the entire $5 million estate—including homes, royalties, business interests, and full control over Hulk’s beloved wrestling promotion, Real American Freestyle. Every asset, every dollar, every piece of the empire now belongs solely to Nick.
The decision stunned everyone close to the family. While Nick has stepped into his new role with a sense of destiny, those familiar with the situation say he was initially overwhelmed by the responsibility and the backlash that came with it. Nevertheless, he has embraced the enormous power now in his hands and begun quietly restructuring the business his father built.
The most shocking part of the will, however, is the revelation that Brooke Hogan was completely cut out. Not a single asset. Not even a symbolic token. Friends say she is devastated—“a mix of heartbreak, betrayal, and disbelief.”
Whispers of a fractured father–daughter relationship have circulated for years, especially after Brooke skipped Hogan’s 2023 wedding to Sky Daly. Though the family publicly denied tension, the will’s contents suggest the emotional distance was far deeper than anyone knew.
Privately, the Hogan family had long been drifting apart. While Nick stayed close to Hulk and aligned himself with his father’s ambitions, Brooke withdrew from fame, focusing on her own life and children. Behind the glossy TV appearances and family branding, resentment and distance quietly grew until there was little left to repair.
Now, with the will made public, everything has burst into the open. Brooke is reportedly consulting attorneys to explore the possibility of challenging the will, and legal experts warn that if she proceeds, it could ignite one of the most dramatic celebrity inheritance battles in years. Nick, on the other hand, is said to be preparing for a fight, determined to defend his father’s final wishes at any cost.

The once-celebrated Hogan legacy now hangs in the balance. What was meant to be a final tribute to Hulk Hogan’s life has instead become a source of turmoil that threatens to overshadow everything he built. Fans around the world are left wondering whether the family can survive this internal collapse—or whether Hulk Hogan’s legacy will forever be marked by the chaos erupting in the wake of his death.
One thing is certain:
The war for the Hogan empire has only just begun, and the world is watching.
