Before he was Hulk Hogan, he was Terry Bollea. Uncover the man behind the legend in this unfiltered documentary featuring his very last interview. It’s taboo to refer to a professional wrestler by their real, government name, but if there’s anyone who truly “lived the gimmick,” it was the man everyone knew in the red and yellow, and later the black and white. He lived and breathed it from the moment he became Hulk Hogan to the moment of his passing, from dazzling in wrestling rings for WWE and WCW to promotional social media videos and political rallies months before his untimely death.

The Netflix docuseries makes a clear effort to unpack his personal life, leaning on interviews with his ex-wife Linda and son Nick while revisiting his relationships through their highs and lows. It also incorporates archival footage of his daughter Brooke, who was not interviewed, amid a falling out long before his passing, along with his estranged relationship with his brother Allan and the initial difficulty his parents had accepting his wrestling career before eventually supporting him at Madison Square Garden.
