Nick Hogan got emotional honoring his dad, Terry “Hulk Hogan” Bollea, at WWE’s “Monday Night Raw.”

The 35-year-old was present at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Mich., during a 10-bell salute to the late professional wrestler, who died on Thursday at age 71.

Monday’s tribute also included a video of Hulk’s iconic moments, which led fans to chant, “Hogan! Hogan!”

Nick, who attended with his wife, Tana Lea, appeared visibly emotional during the homage.

Lea, for her part, clutched her husband’s arm and could be seen wiping away tears.

The duo wore funereal outfits, with Nick sporting an all-black suit and Lea matching in a lace and leather dress.

After Hulk passed away last week due to a cardiac arrest, Nick wrote about the “extremely difficult” and “overwhelming” news via Instagram.

“I feel so blessed to have had the greatest dad in the world,” the former reality star told his followers on Saturday, calling Hulk “kind, loving and amazing.”

Nick continued, “He was not only the best dad but also my mentor and my best friend. He always has been my best friend and I love him and miss him more than I could ever explain.”

Hulk was also the father of daughter Brooke Hogan, sharing both the 37-year-old and Nick with ex-wife Linda Hogan.

Brooke has yet to pay public tribute to Hulk.

The late athlete, who married wife Sky Daily in 2023, had been estranged from his daughter for years.

Most recently, Brooke tearfully explained on social media that she chose to go no-contact with her parents over years of alleged verbal and physical abuse — which Linda, 65, denied.

Linda subtly addressed Hulk’s passing by reposting Nick’s tribute and adding a sad emoji.

As for Daily, she honored her late husband, whose health had declined in the weeks before his death, via Instagram last week and called his death “impossible to process.”

She subsequently gave Nick a shoutout for his birthday Sunday and gushed that Hulk “couldn’t be prouder” of his youngest child.
