Hulk Hogan’s Death Reveals Secret Tie to the Dallas Cowboys.
As the world mourns the loss of wrestling legend Hulk Hogan, who passed away at age 71, a shocking revelation has surfaced: Hogan had a secret connection with the Dallas Cowboys that was never made public — until now.
According to an inside source at the Cowboys’ headquarters in Frisco, Hogan had been in talks with the team’s leadership in late 2024 to launch a mental conditioning program called “HULK UP: Wrestle Like a Warrior, Play Like a Cowboy.”
“He told us the Cowboys needed more ‘stage-warrior mindset’ to make a serious playoff run,” a Cowboys media staff member revealed anonymously.
Hogan Planned to Appear at Cowboys’ 2025 Season Opener
Originally, Hogan was scheduled to appear at the Cowboys’ home opener at AT&T Stadium, where he would hype the crowd with his iconic battle cry:
“WHAT YOU GONNA DO, WHEN THE COWBOYS RUN WILD ON YOU?!”
Unfortunately, due to declining health and complications after neck surgery in June 2025, the plan was shelved — and tragically, never realized.
A Hidden Dream: Hogan Once Wanted to Buy Into the Cowboys
In a now-forgotten 2010 interview, Hogan expressed a desire to purchase a minority stake in the Dallas Cowboys after receiving a large post-WWE investment.
“If I wasn’t Hulk Hogan, I’d wanna be a Cowboy. Every morning I wake up, I imagine throwing on a Dallas jersey and storming the field!”

️ Cowboys Fans Pay Tribute
Soon after Hogan’s passing, a major Cowboys fan page switched its profile picture to black and white with the caption:
“Rest in Power, Hulk – The Cowboy We Never Had.”
Online Reactions Pour In
“Only Hulk could bring wrestling spirit to the NFL like that.”
“Thought this was fake, but he really tried to mentor the Cowboys?”
“Man, if only he had walked into AT&T Stadium just once…”
Final Thoughts
Though Hulk Hogan never played football, in his final days, he chose the Cowboys to carry on his fighting spirit. His dream of bringing WWE energy to the NFL may never come true, but his legacy lives on — not just in the ring, but now, in the hearts of every true Cowboy fan.
“Brother, this season… we ride for you.”
