Hulk Hogan Brings The House Down With Fiery Speech At RNC: VIDEO
The Republican National Convention is certainly going out with a bang.
A number of guest speakers and performers were lined up to get in front of a raucous crowd in Milwaukee before former President Donald Trump's closing address. None could possibly bring the amount of energy, enthusiasm, and some might say, exuberance, like former wrestling legend Hulk Hogan.
Hogan gave a fiery, but mostly peaceful speech reinforcing why he supports Trump for president this year, and how the failed assassination attempt inspired him to speak publicly about his "hero."

"I think about how his family was compromised, how his business was compromised. But what happened last week when they took a shot at my hero -- and tried to kill the president of the United States -- enough was enough," Hogan said.
"Let Trump-O-Mania rule again, let Trump-O-Mania make America great again," he continued, ripping off layer after layer of clothing to reveal a "Trump-Vance" tank top. Well, just enjoy.

OutKick's Riley Gaines was at the event, and shared video from the floor during Hogan's speech with a short, simple message: "We're so back."
Meanwhile, over at MSNBC, where the mood continues to get worse as poll after poll shows President Joe Biden slipping, even in formerly blue states, they didn't even show Hogan's speech.
They missed an eventful afternoon in Milwaukee, where Hogan's speech exemplified the phenomenon many have noticed after the assassination attempt. A renewed enthusiasm and willingness to publicly support the often-controversial Trump.
"When I saw him stand up with [his] fist in the air and the blood on his face, as a warrior and as a leader, I realized that's what America needs," Hogan said in a pre-speech Fox News interview.
"I knew it all along, I was just afraid to speak out," he added.
No one could call Thursday's speech "afraid." And with others to come, the party at the RNC is just getting started. Someone tell MSNBC.
