“Whatcha gonna do, brother?”

Hulk Hogan is on the mend after going under the knife.

The 71-year-old former wrestling legend underwent recent surgery on his neck, reported TMZ on Thursday, May 15.

Hogan’s representative shared information about his recovery, indicating that the WWE brand ambassador underwent a minor fusion procedure on Wednesday to improve his comfort levels.

According to the Cleveland Clinic, fusion surgery is frequently performed to alleviate pain resulting from compressed nerves in the neck, with the surgeon fusing the bones together as part of the procedure.

Despite undergoing the surgery, Hogan wasted no time in getting back to work, demonstrating the resilience of a true champion by returning to work on Thursday following a swift recovery as mentioned by his representative.

The Post reached out to Hogan’s rep for comment.

His surgery comes not long after the bandana-wearing retired wrestler — real name Terry Eugene Bollea — sparked alarm bells with a dramatic new look.

Earlier this month, Hogan shocked fans after debuting a bizarre, two-toned beard during a live TV appearance on “Fox & Friends.”

Sporting his trademark white handlebar mustache and mullet, the star’s beard stubble was a strange purplish-black color.

Fans were floored by the hair-raising transformation.

“Hulk Hogan. Hulk. Please give it up and go take a nap. You’re in your 70s, your beard looks like you rubbed a moldy ashtray on your face,” one person wrote on X after his interview.

“What style would you call this look from Hulk Hogan?” another user asked.

“Is he okay?” shared a third.

Ontario’s Welland Tribune even had an opinion piece about the hair-raising transformation titled, “Hulk Hogan’s face now resembles a 1970s station wagon. His zebra-dyed beard is a cautionary tale for all men.”

Hogan’s facial hair hasn’t been the only reason he’s been making headlines lately.

The former reality star’s family drama hit an all-time high in March, when his ex-wife, Linda Hogan, aired out their dirty laundry.

An emotional Linda revealed she’s estranged from her daughter, Brooke, 37, and blamed her former husband for the fallout. She also labeled Hogan a “sex addict” and “complete liar.”

“Brooke doesn’t talk to us. She had twins, she got married [and] she didn’t tell us,” Linda said in the video, referring to Brooke and her husband, ex-Stanley Cup champ Steven Oleksy, whom she married in 2022.

The couple welcomed twins, Oliver Andrew and Molly Gene, in January.

But Brooke, who is estranged from both parents, shot back at her mother’s accusations and explained why she has “no contact” with them.

“I have been EXTREMELY verbally and mentally abused since childhood,” she claimed in her lengthy social media post.

“Sadly, it would frequently turn physical. And sometimes it’s not by the person you would assume, abuse comes in all shapes and sizes. This vicious pattern has robbed me of any sense of self-esteem or confidence I’ve trained to pretend to have,” she added in part.

Linda fired back with a jaw-dropping allegation that her “narcissist” daughter once “broke my collarbone” in a drunken fight.

The WWE Hall of Famer appeared to enjoy watching the mother-daughter brawl play out with his new wife, Sky Daily.

Hogan married Daily in 2023 following his divorce from Jennifer McDaniel in 2021.

Linda and Hogan were married from 1983 to 2009. The pair shares two kids: Brooke and Nick, 34.
