If he stopped using the word now, lets stop focusing on the past and start focusing on who he is now.

Also to be fair, Booker T and every other black man wrestler should be fired because i bet they said the n word in their lifetime. Maybe they haven't but im willing to bet that they had. lol

Can't understand the ban on the N word. If it becomes common for people to to refer to blacks as N's will the letter N be banned and withdrawn from the English alphabet? Examples, hey you N, who do you think you're looking at? I say there N boy, we don't allow Ns in here. Where does this political correctness stop? Hulk Hogan was a wonderful athlete and a champion wrestler who was a great role model for many youths. Whatever the sanctimonious do-gooders ban him from they will never be able to take away his achievements during his outstanding career. I'm Irish and get called, Paddy, Mick, as well as having to listen to a barrage of derogatory ''Irish Jokes'', from a certain type of low life. Well, what the heck? If that helps to boost their own low self esteem and alleviates feelings of insecurity sure haven't I helped one of life's lower orders to feel temporarily better about him/herself.
