Roddy Piper, Kevin Nash Defend Hulk Hogan After Racist Rant Emerges

Hulk Hogan's life and legacy have imploded recently thanks to excerpts from a video being leaked, featuring him using derogatory language against black men and women. In the video, it's said that Hogan doesn't want his daughter dating a black man. After the news hit, the WWE terminated Hogan from his legends contract and on top of that, he has become the Internet's number one villain. While most admonished Hogan for his language, two WWE legends came to his aid; one was Roddy Piper and the other was Kevin Nash.

 #hulkhogan terminated by the @wwe for racist comments said in a PRIVATE conversation! Here we go again. Here's the transcript of those comments.

Piper says we should judge Hogan by all the good things he has done instead of concentrating on one single incident.

"With Hulkster, I don't agree with all his choices, but I don't hear people saying all the great things he's done," the iconic WWE wrestler said this week. "All those kids that said their prayers and took their vitamins; I don't hear them saying that. At a time with Hogan, where he has a little boy in jail, and a little lady trying to make it in show business. I think everybody needs to get a life. I don't think anybody should just go to hurt your feelings for no reason."

Kevin Nash took to Twitter to defend the Hulkster. According to his former NWO partner, he never heard Hogan use that sort of language before and believes it's an isolated incident.
