The New York Post is reporting that records from the
Pinellas County Forensic Science Center show that Hulk Hogan
died from a heart attack.
The cause of death was listed as acute myocardial
infarction, the fancier definition of a heart attack, which
is acute obstruction of a coronary artery.
The documents, obtained by NY Post’s Page Six, also show
that the WWE Hall of Famer had a history of AFib and
leukemia CLL, a type of cancer, which was previously
information not released.
The medical examiner ruled his death as natural. A cremation
request was done by his family.
Hulk had undergone major four-level Anterior Cervical
Discectomy and Fusion surgery a month ago, a surgical
procedure used to relieve pressure on the spinal cord and
nerve roots in the neck. He never recovered from it and was
stuck to a hospital bed since then.
Hogan had a cardiac arrest on Thursday, July 24 in the
morning and EMTs were unable to revive him. He was declared
dead at the hospital.
