Hulk Hogan Says Wrestling Rival Sent Him Voicemail After His Death

Pro wrestling legend Hulk Hogan claims that he received a voicemail from his longtime rival ‘Rowdy’ Roddy Piper two days after he had passed away. The eyebrow-raising account was shared by the Hulkster during a recent appearance on The 700 Club. Sharing his “crazy wrestling story” with the host, Hogan explained that he and Piper “couldn’t stand each other” during their careers, but had become close friends after their wrestling days had wound down. “We would text every single day,” the Hulkster recalled, until “all of a sudden, he passes away.” 

Two days later, while watching a TV special on his friend’s illustrious career, Hogan said, “when they get ready to go to credits,” he suddenly received a voicemail from Piper. The Hulkster went on to recount how, in the message, his departed friend declared “I’m just loving you, my brother. I’m just walkin’ with Jesus. Walkin’ with Jesus and loving you, my brother.” Reflecting on the remarkable voicemail, Hogan mused that “he would have never said that when he was here. It is amazing how things work.”

Since Hogan has gained something of a reputation as a fabulist in wrestling circles due to his penchant for telling tall tales about his legendary career, the voicemail claim was initially dismissed by many as yet another dubious recollection from the Hulkster. However, in this instance, it would appear that the account was actually on the level as an unearthed segment from a different TV special (seen below) features Hogan sharing a similar version of the story along with the actual message from Piper. 

I wouldn’t necessarily bring this to the bank. Prove the date. I have seen a video of the voicemail. It’s seems to be Roddy. But people are smart and concoct all kinds of strange things.

Dab smack in the middle of the eastern Canadian prairie is a tiny town called Somerset, Manitoba.

Somerset is sleepy little place where nothing much eventful ever happens. Farmers, mechanics and a few office workers going about their business. The main recreation in the place is gossiping about neighbors and talking about the latest casualty of old age. The towns population is overflowing with senior citizens. The only growth industry in town is the Old Folks retirement home.

Eventually the gossip began to speculate that there was a hoarder in town. Now this was interesting, the story really revved up the usually mundane restaurant chatter.  As with all gossip, the facts are usually exaggerated and embellished. The chit chatters usually don’t care if the facts are unknown, they just like the story. But this time it was different.

The hoarder himself admitted that he was one.  Constantijn Vanderrassle admitted to the local bartender that he had in fact been hoarding since the early 1990’s. It started after he retired from the railroad. He loved the things he bought from thrift stores, auctions and the picks he went on. And for the life of him he just couldn’t get rid of any of the stuff.

Constantijn’s house

A big structure with over a dozen rooms

After repeated requests Constantijn allowed the bartender Cletus LaFlesche to take a look. Cletus brought along his super dependable cannon XZ-500 digital camera and promptly snapped a picture of the living room.

Ignore the date in the bottom right corner, Cletus never did figure out how to set the clock on his camera. Since Constantijn was 92 years old Cletus wondered what in the hell he was doing with a little red wagon. Top left.

A few weeks after the visit something was bugging Constantijn that was causing him to drink more heavily than usual. He finally confided to Cletus that the damn house was haunted. He was seeing all kinds of weird entities. These phantoms, demons or whatever the hell they were, would throw the clustered hoarded things around in the middle of the night. Constantijn just couldn’t get any sleep.

One night, after the two buddies had drank many sambuca shooters and draft beers, they would go head first into the evil cauldron and Cletus would snap some pictures. The things in the pictures made the hair on Cletus’s neck stand on end. It was something out of a horror movie nightmare. Entities from hell!!

Bedroom

Bloody demon clowns!

WTF!!

Jesus Fricken Murphy!! The rancid breath that thing must exude.

Imagine waking up in the middle of the night to go for a leak and stumbling into this monstrosity.  A guy could shit his pants!

From which hell pit did this quad eyed hideous mutation crawl up from? God help us all!!

And Constantijn did just that, he hired a servant of God to rid the house of the demon trolls.

Constantijn promised Cletus that if the Exorcist is successful, he will bring in the A&E hoarder psychiatrists and movers and get rid of all his stuff once and for all.

Firehouse, Hook & Ladder Company 8 is a New York City Fire Department (FDNY) fire station, located at 14 North Moore Street at its intersection with Varick Street in the Tribeca neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. Its exterior has become famous as the base of the Ghostbusters in the supernatural comedy film franchise of the same name.

The firehouse was selected as the base of the “Ghostbusters” for the 1984 film after an early draft of the script envisaged the Ghostbusters as a public service much like the fire department. Reportedly, the firehouse was chosen because writer Dan Aykroyd knew the area and liked the building. While the firehouse served as the set for exterior scenes, the interior of the Ghostbusters base was shot in a Los Angeles studio, and in Fire Station No. 23, a decommissioned Los Angeles firehouse.

In the 2016 reboot of Ghostbusters, the firehouse makes two appearances.

The firehouse has also appeared in the 1994 film “The Mask” as a car repair facility, the 2005 film Hitch and in episodes of the television series Seinfeld and How I Met Your Mother. In 2015, Lego announced a 4,634-piece “Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters” set based on the building, released in January 2016. It is the ninth-largest set ever made by Lego.

The latest cryptozoological sightings from around North America. A dogman encounter in Maine, where a couple renting a farmhouse witnessed several 7-foot tall wolf-like creatures walking upright on their hind legs advancing toward them. They took refuge in their house, peering from a window on the second floor, and watched in amazement as the creatures stared up at them.  Another related  dogman sighting took place at Mount Baldy in Alberta, where a hiker claimed to have come face to face with an upright walking dogman. The creature appeared to recognize the hiker’s camera and ran off.

Multiple Bigfoot sightings in Wisconsin were reported .  Between 1964 through 2011 there have been 14 well-documented sightings in a small region of the state. Two sightings have been reported at the Lima Marsh, a student as well as two restaurant owners have claimed to encounter a bigfoot-like creature in the area. In another report, a woman digging in her garden heard a growl and turned to find an 8-foot tall bigfoot-like creature standing in the weeds. She took castings of footprints that measured 20 inches long by 13 inches wide.

Some of the beasts look like they are trying to fit in.

Here we go again with another blood sucking unknown creature.  Could this be a mutated Chupacabra?  Is it black magic or are the Space Aliens trying to spook us?

Some say it’s a witch doctor, a warlock, or a work of black magic. Others say it’s a hybrid animal somewhere between a dog and a pig. But whatever it is, residents in Namibia are saying the strange creature they’ve seen wreaking havoc on their villages is nothing they’ve ever encountered before, according to the website Life’s Little Mysteries.

Villagers living near the Kalahari desert in northern Namibia have reported seeing an odd creature with a head like a dog and the shoulders of a pig, mostly white in color and with hairless spots on its back, according to the site.

They say the beast has been attacking dogs, goats and other domestic animals seemingly out of nowhere, as the region’s arid landscape is sparse in trees and shrubbery where animals might hide.

“This is an alien animal that the people have not seen before. We don’t have a forest here, only bushes. So, this must be black magic at play,” Andreas Mundjindi, a Namibian official, told the newspaper Informante.

One resident who spoke with Informante said villagers are taking precautions against the creature by staying in groups, and that many believe it’s an intelligent being that came from the house of a grey-haired man.

“Everyone believes it is his beast and even he knows that we think so,” the villager told Informante. “When it comes our side in the night, all the dogs are barking, but if it goes back west, then it’s all hush. People must be safe. We don’t want to be mauled by things we don’t know.”

The sightings follow a number of reports out of Africa in recent years involving alleged sightings of strange creatures. In 2009, the Namibian newspaper New Era reported that a number of villagers had filed complaints with police stating that a mysterious tiger-like creature had been sucking blood of their livestock.

Police spokeswoman Christina Fonsech told the paper that police tried to track the creature’s footprints, which were doglike, though bigger.

“We followed them but they walked until a spot where they just vanished,” Fonsech told New Era. “It’s difficult to explain what happened to those footprints because they looked as if they climbed onto something but it was in an open space, so we don’t know what happened.

One elusive creature of legend from the Congo region, known as the “Mokele-mbembe,” has intrigued myth hunters for years. Believed by some to be the surviving ancestor of a dinosaur, similar to the rumored Loch Ness Monster, the animal has been reported in sightings as far back as 1776, according to research by cryptozoologist William Gibbons.

Gibbons published a description of the creature, written by a German captain during a colonial expedition of the Congo in 1913:

The animal is said to be of a brownish gray color … its size approximating that of an elephant. It is said to have a long and very flexible neck. Some spoke of a long muscular tail like that of an alligator. Canoes coming near it are said to be doomed; the animals are said to attack the vessels at once and to kill the crews but without eating the bodies. The creature is said to live in the caves that have been washed out by the river in the clay of its shores at sharp bends. It is said to climb the shore even in daytime in search of its food; its diet is said to be entirely vegetable.
