WWE legend Hulk Hogan has been baptized. The 70-year-olf former wrestler shared that he was baptized at Indian Rocks Baptist Church in Florida and shared videos and photos from his ceremony on his Instagram. The video shows Hogan being submerged in a small pool of water before he emerges, flashing a smile.
He captioned the post, “Total surrender and dedication to Jesus is the greatest day of my life. No worries, no hate, no judgment, only love!” Hogan’s wife, Sky Daily Hogan, whom he married in September, was also baptized, and Hogan helped with her ceremony. Before he was baptized, Hogan helped dip his wife into the water. She surfaced with a smile and gently clapped her hands. Both Hogan and his wife wore white for the ceremony.
Hogan wore his trademark bandana, this time in white, with a matching T-shirt and silver cross necklace. The pictures also captured him serenely bowing his head as he seemed to share a prayer with his family in the pool. Indian Rocks Baptist Church also shared the moment on their Instagram account, posting a picture of the baptism to their Stories. They wrote in bold font, “God is doing amazing things at Indian Rocks.”
This baptism comes months after Hogan opened up about his faith on X, formerly known as Twitter. Back in April, he tweeted, “I accepted Christ as my Savior at 14 years old, and the training, prayers, and vitamins kept in the game, but now that I am one with God, the main event theme of surrender, service and love makes me the Real Main Event that can slam any giant of any size through the power of my Lord and Savior and so it is, even now brother, AMEN!”

Hogan married Sky Daily in Florida in September, marking the third time the wrestler had walked down the aisle. A friend told The Daily Mail at the time, “Sky changed his life. He is the happiest he’s ever been, literally over the moon. If a guy like Hulk could glow, then he’d be glowing. It was a lowkey wedding. Neither of them wanted anything over the top, just a small affair with their nearest and dearest to declare their deep love and commitment to each other. Sadly, Brooke didn’t show up.”
The former WWE star has two children, Brooke and Nick, from his first marriage to Linda Hogan. Nick was in attendance at the wedding. Hogan and Sky got engaged after dating for a little over a year in July of 2023. During his speech at the wedding of actor Corin Nemec and his wife, Sabrina Nova, Hogan revealed that he popped the question on Daily’s birthday. He told the crowd, “She was crazy enough to say ‘Yes’ brother!,” referencing one of his most famous catchphrases from his wrestling days.
Hogan was married to Linda Hogan from 1983 to 2009. In 2010, he remarried to Jennifer McDaniel, and their union ended in divorce in 2021.
