Several months after losing his father, Nick Hogan teased a potential wrestling career.

Hogan's father, the legendary Hulk Hogan, died in July at the age of 71. Hogan was spotted at several WWE events shortly after Hulk's death and told TMZ Sports that being around the business "makes me feel so much closer to Dad."

Hogan photographed himself with NWA star Byron Idol right outside a wrestling ring, resulting in speculation that he could launch a career in the business.

When asked about stepping into the ring, he didn't exactly shut it down.

"You never know, man. It's in the blood. So, you never know," he said. "I'm in pretty good shape right now. I'm cool. Not saying too much, but trying to stay in shape. We'll see what happens. Never hurts to drop the leg here and there," he added, referencing his father's finishing move.

The wrestler had a history of atrial fibrillation, a heart condition that causes an irregular and rapid heart rate, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a cancer that affects white blood cells, according to officials. His cause of death was a heart attack.

The news of Hogan’s death came weeks after he was allegedly having a health crisis. However, his widow, Sky Daily Hogan, denied those reports at the time, saying he was "strong" and recovering from surgeries.
