Fitness influencer Joey Swoll has quit social media after receiving widespread backlash over a tribute video to Hulk Hogan, posted days after the wrestler's death. The incident unfolded in late July 2025 across TikTok, Instagram and X (formerly Twitter), where Swoll was criticised for praising Hogan and using outdated racial language during a livestream. The controversy escalated quickly, ultimately prompting Swoll to delete the video and announce his permanent departure from online platforms.
