Pro wrestling legend Hulk Hogan, 71, died of a heart attack last week, authorities confirmed. The medical examiner listed the cause of death as acute myocardial infarction, a natural cause given his history of atrial fibrillation and leukemia. Emergency responders were called to his Florida home following a cardiac arrest. Hogan, whose real name was Terry Gene Bollea, achieved massive fame in the 1980s with his 'Hulkamania' era, transforming professional wrestling into mainstream entertainment.
