Hulk Hogan may be gone, but it's "Hulkamania Forever" at WrestleMania 42 this weekend in Sin City ... WWE set up an awesome exhibit honoring the wrestling legend, and his son, Nick, stopped by to take it all in.
World Wrestling Entertainment posted a video of Hulk's only son stopping by the Las Vegas Convention Center on Thursday, days before wrestling's biggest weekend.
"Nick Hogan gets a first look at the [Hulk Hogan] exhibit at #WWEWorld!" WWE wrote on X.
WWE Superstar Rusev is ready to step out of the squared circle and into the boxing ring -- he’s got his sights set on Jake Paul ... even with WrestleMania right around the corner!!!
We caught up with the Bulgarian Brute ahead of his Intercontinental Championship Ladder Match this weekend in Las Vegas ... and during a conversation about which celebrities he would want to “crush,” Rusev initially brought up Jelly Roll -- before quickly turning his attention to Jake.
“I would definitely love to put my hands on that guy,” Rusev said.
And it’s not just talk. Rusev claims his own boxing coach has been pushing him toward it ... telling him he has the tools to make real noise in the sport, especially his power.
According to Rusev, his trainer believes he has a “mean right hook” that could seriously do damage in the ring.
Rusev also took a jab at Paul’s past injuries, referencing his jaw and joking that he’s “half Terminator,” suggesting he’s not exactly worried about what Jake brings to the table.
Jake Paul has made a name for himself by taking on fighters from all over the combat sports world ... most recently getting rocked by Anthony Joshua, resulting in a busted jaw.
And Rusev sounds more than confident he would handle business ... just like AJ did last year.
Despite the talk, Rusev is currently locked in on WrestleMania ... where he will compete in a chaotic ladder match for the Intercontinental Championship.
He's not overlooking it ... but it's clear he's put some thought into what comes next.
Check out the full interview with Rusev on TMZ's "Inside The Ring" podcast.
