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.<\/p>\n

He captioned the post, \u201cTotal surrender and dedication to Jesus is the greatest day of my life. No worries, no hate, no judgment, only love!\u201d Hogan\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

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, \u201cGod is doing amazing things at Indian Rocks.\u201d<\/p>\n

This baptism comes months after Hogan opened up about his faith on X, formerly known as Twitter. Back in April, he tweeted, \u201cI 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!\u201d<\/p>\n
