LONDON: Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan slammed the Swansea City ball boy over the incident with Chelsea star Eden Hazard during the League Cup return leg semi-final on Wednesday.

Hazard, 22, was sent off during the match at Liberty Stadium after a fracas involving Swansea ball boy Charlie Morgan.

However, the Hulkster - currently in the United Kingdom as part of TNA Impact Wrestling’s Maximum Impact V - believes that the 17-year-old got off lightly.

"The young guy on the sidelines may as well have thrown the ball into the crowd," said Hogan.

"That would have been more convincing and would really have held up the action.

"But he might have got his butt kicked even more,” joked the former 12-time world champion.

“I don’t think Hazard kicked him hard enough. Morgan shouldn't be interfering with play like that," he said.
