Former WWE star Hulk Hogan has bizarrely claimed that he received a voice note from Roddy Piper after his death.

Wrestling legend Piper spent a number of years in WWE over various different stints, with his last match coming in 2011 against The Miz, though he appeared in a non-wrestling capacity after.

He passed away in 2015 at the age of 61, with it ruled he had suffered a cardiopulmonary arrest caused by hypertension.

The Hall of Famer buried the hatched of a rivalry with Hogan at WrestleMania 30, alongside Paul Orndorff and Mr. T, with all four men facing of at the first WrestleMania.

Hogan, however, has now made a sensational claim that he was contacted by his friend after his death.

‘It was a voice message,’ Hogan began, speaking on The 700 Club. ‘This text message came in two days after he died and it goes, “I’m just loving you, my brother. Just walkin’ with Jesus. Walkin’ with Jesus and loving you, my brother”.

‘I was like, “He would have never said that when he was here”.’

Hogan and Piper’s rivalry spanned several decades, with the pair facing off for the then-WWF Championship back in 1985.

Their match set up the first-ever WrestleMania, now WWE’s flagship show, with Orndorff and Piper facing Hogan and Mr T. The latter team won the match.

They then clashed again in 1996 in a storyline involving legendary faction nWo, with Piper beating Hogan, though he later lost a title match against the same man.

When Piper returned to WWE in 2003, he again attacked Hogan, with the rivalry going down as one of the most famous in the company’s history.

Speaking of Piper’s death on an episode of WWE Legends, Hogan said: ‘I felt like I got shot in the chest with a cannon. It knocked me off track for a couple of days.

‘It was really weird because I get this voice message, either my phone was messed up. That really spooked me out, to get a voice message from somebody after the passed away.’

The message was also played out loud on the episode.

Hogan has been somewhat of a controversial figure in recent times, making a number of claims that fans have questioned.

He once suggested that Mike Tyson was ‘scared’ to face him in a boxing match, and claimed he would write his film movie scripts.

The former champion appears sporadically in WWE today now his in-ring career is over, with fans split on their opinions of the 70-year-old.

He has also turned to religion in recent years and has spoken about ‘surrendering to Jesus’ – not the former WWE wrestler.

Last December he was baptized alongside his wife Sky at a church in Florida.
