Eric Bischoff Provides Post-Surgery Update On Hulk Hogan, Says He Looks 15 Years Younger
Hulk Hogan underwent back surgery in November where, according to Hogan, they “fused six levels” together.
Hogan took to social media on Nov. 15 and revealed the hardware that came out of his back during the surgery. You can see a photo of the hardware below. Speaking on After 83 Weeks, Hogan’s longtime friend Eric Bischoff provided an update on The Hulkster.
“He looks better than he has in the last 15 years. The surgery he had, I can’t even describe it. It was massive. The reconstruction that they did to his spine, if you just look at the amount of hardware that they had to take out of his back to put in new hardware, it was more metal that came out of his back than there is on the front-end of my car. It’s ridiculous. He was in surgery for right at, or close to ten hours. That’s a lot of surgery. He’s rehabbing now. He’s having to learn how to walk again, and he’s really doing some extensive rehab,” said Bischoff.

Bischoff also joked that if Hogan keeps up his rehab, he could have a match at WrestleMania 36. Hogan has been asking for one last match in WWE, believing WrestleMania 36 to be the perfect place for it to happen.
Hogan will be in Tampa for WrestleMania 36 weekend as he will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as part of the New World Order.
