Brooke Hogan, daughter of the late wrestling icon Hulk Hogan, has been officially removed from her father’s will and will not inherit any part of his estate, TMZ reported earlier this year. This significant development comes amid Brooke’s ongoing mourning following Hulk Hogan’s recent passing. Meanwhile, WWE is ramping up preparations for its highly anticipated two-night SummerSlam 2025, currently underway at MetLife Stadium with an ambitious, WrestleMania-level production in progress.

Brooke Hogan’s Removal From Hulk Hogan’s Will

According to sources close to the Hogan family cited by TMZ, Brooke Hogan voluntarily requested to be removed from Hulk Hogan’s will as early as 2023, well before his death in July 2025. The decision was reportedly rooted in a longstanding rift and a desire by Brooke to distance herself from the complexities of the family estate. As a result, she will not receive any inheritance from the late wrestling legend’s estate.

A WWE insider familiar with the situation confirmed that Brooke’s choice to step away from the legal proceedings around the estate was a personal one, reflecting deep family dynamics rather than any external pressures. The insider noted, “Brooke has been grieving privately and made it clear she wants no part in the estate’s legalities. It was a mutual respect decision within the family.”

Despite this, Brooke continues to honor her father’s wrestling legacy publicly and has expressed gratitude for fans’ support during this difficult time. Hulk Hogan’s estate will reportedly be distributed among other family members and trusts, though exact details remain confidential.
