Brooke Hogan Called Police Over Concerns About Hulk Hogan’s Autopsy

Brooke Hogan, the daughter of late wrestler Hulk Hogan, reportedly contacted police in regard to when his autopsy would be finalized.

According to TMZ, the former Hogan Knows Best star called authorities shortly after her father died on July 24, 2025, and inquired about the process of his autopsy. Hulk was 71 years old when he died from natural causes, and it was confirmed last week that there was no foul play in the death of the late professional wrestler. In his autopsy from last year, it was detailed that Hulk died from acute myocardial infarction.

Brooke, who was estranged from Hulk around the time of his passing, reportedly had concerns about his autopsy that stemmed from hearing about an alleged “botched” surgery that occurred just 2 months before he died. Brooke was also said to have questions about lab work and the possibility of a cremation, to which an officer directed her to contact Hulk’s widow, Sky Bollea.

Weeks later, on August 21, Brooke called the police to meet regarding an investigation into her father’s death and to “clarify some of the speculation in the public.” After being told that the information would not be available until November, Brooke inquired about a private autopsy, which she would later offer to pay for.

Brooke left Hulk’s will before his passing, and in a statement posted to her Instagram Story one month after her father died, Brooke shared that she wanted to end “speculation and uncertainty” around Hulk’s passing.

“I want to personally offer to pay for an autopsy if that’s what it takes to get it done. My dad’s dignity and legacy deserves it,” she wrote at the time.

While on podcast Bubba the Love Sponge Show last year, Brooke said it was “weird that no autopsy was performed” and questioned why her father had a heart attack. Brooke also explained that although Hulk was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, it came “out of nowhere” for her upon reading his postmortem medical documents.
