As rumors continue to swirl about his potential return to WWE, Hulk Hogan says he must apologize to every wrestler in the company for racist comments he made in a leaked sex tape in 2015.

Speaking to TMZ Sports on Saturday, Hogan addressed soon-to-be WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry's comment that he would be welcomed back "after an apology to all existing African-American talent."

"I totally agree (with Henry)," Hogan said. "Not to the black wrestlers, to all the wrestlers. What I said was way out of line and I'm forever sorry for that."

Mike Johnson of PWInsider recently reported that WWE and Hogan have held discussions about a possible reunion, but WWE released a statement saying the talks were "about how he can help others learn from his mistakes."
