Dwayne Johnson defends Hulk Hogan amid racial slur scandal |
|||
July 31, 2015 Hulk Hogan | |||
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson showed his support to his pal and fellow wrestler Hulk Hogan, who is the mid of a racial slur scandal after an audio of hum using the N-word leaked last week.
The actor said he understands that everyone's talked trash at some point in their lives.
“I was pretty disappointed with what I heard, like all of us, by the way. Pretty disappointed,” Johnson said. “I’ve known Terry for a lot of years, my dad helped train him in Florida in the ’70s when he was breaking into the business… My uncles helped train him too as well. I have not known the man to be racist."
Despite being disappointed in the former WWE champ, Johnson said he can sympathize with Hogan.
“It’s funny, it’s one of those things where — and [I’m] not justifying what he said — we’ve all talked trash, especially in private,” the actor said. “He said what he said, and he’s paying the price.”
Hogan, who was dropped by WWE following the scandal, apologized for using "offensive language" and his lawyer said he "accepts ownership." |
