Hogan may not be my favorite all time wrestler anymore, but that doesn't change the fact that he was my childhood hero. And I'm still proud to say that I looked up to him.
@DJCandyManMike macho man was also great and one of the best ever!he had some of the best matches in wwf history especially the batlles vs steamboat were amazing!
Oh definitely! He had both the charisma and the skill to put on an excellent match every time he stepped into the ring. And by far, Macho Man is my favorite high flyer of all time. He's really the first high flyer I was ever a huge mark for.
@DJCandyManMike yes...to bad that wwe is n't as great as back then...if u take those great wrestlers back then and now....cena,orton,miz,edge,cm punk....give me a break!the only one i like is rey mysterio in today's wwe.
They have a few good guys who aren't getting much of a push right now. Now, granted, there's nowhere near the larger than life people we grew up with, but maybe one day they'll get the chance to prove themselves.
Austin was the bigger draw, consistently, night after night. Austin's drawing power held-up during repeated vists to the same georgraphical area. Hogan's didn't. I mean, geez, Hogan couldn't even draw at the SuperDome in New Orleans in 1987 with the JUNKYARD DOG (Louisiana-area legend) as his tag partner. The event drew 6,000 fans in a 78,000-capacity dome.
@MattSingh1 Dude, two different eras! Hogan sold out several stadiums including MSG MANY times all the while having little support from the undercard in the early 80's. Austin had megastars like the Rock, HHH, Foley, Taker, etc etc. that people wanted to see, as well.
In actual dollars, Austin likely did make more money in the WWE, but none of that would have been possible if Hogan didn't pave the way (along with McMahon).
Respect to Hogan. As retarded as he is today, he's a WWF legend.
@Safeco1999 Hogan's drawing power didn't hold-up to repeated visits to the same geographical area, plus Hogan never routinely drew 18,000+ for house shows. Yes, Hogan drew bigger crowds on one-off events, like 78,000 at WM III, but Hogan never drew consistent 4.5/6.0 TV numbers on a weekly basis (although he did draw the 33 million for the Andre rematch in Feb. '88). I'd say the fact that Hogan helped kill WCW probably gives the edge to Austin, as Austin helped WWE from bankruptcy to dominance.
@MattSingh1 Well I still say it's two different eras. Hogan's era drew higher tv ratings (9.0+) because there was less competition back then.
What's the source of your facts? Austin broke Hogan's merchandising records but it's a different era, where there's other outlets for marketing (the internet being a HUGE game changer!).
Hulk Hogan put wrestling on the map. And in 1996, he ushered in the biggest boom and elevated another company to the top. Austin had a super supporting cast...
@MattSingh1 Also wanted to mention that the Attitude Era brought in fans who wanted to see the extremeness and sexuality more than wrestling. Notice how all those fans left once WWE changed. But you bring Hogan back, all his old school fans come roaring back. IMO, Hogan drew more life-long wrestling fans than anyone, anyone who's watched long enough would remember more Hogan moments than any others (i.e. Hogan/Andre, Hogan/Rock, Hogan joining nWo, etc.). It's all about the pioneer man- Hogan!
when my friend said he didnt know who Hulk Hogan was, i replied with something like "WHAAAAAAAAT?????" and he said "i dont watch wrestling" and i was like "everybody knows who hulk hogan is!"
He had to drop the title to Warrior as he was uilt up as Vince's next big thing for a new decade but that didn't quite work out. Hogan was running out of steam by '91 and fully stagnated in '93 during his comeback. It was until '96 people gave a shit about him again when he turned heel and formed the nWO (which itself became a joke with so many splinter groups and version containing everbody, his brother, dog and wife).
Hogan should have retired in 2003, IMO after WMXIX,
you ask most places in the world who is stone cold, the rock so on they like who the fck? but they all know the name Hulk Hogan his name is known all over the world.
I'm from Ireland - back when I was a kid, this is what the world knew of America - Hulk Hogan, hollywood family movies, flags, fireworks and the american dream (going to america with nothing, working hard and making it big). america should re-discover its 80s soul. kick out obama, kick them all out, and vote in real americans brother!!
People will never get into wrestling the way they did back in the mid '80s. Saturday Night's Main event was the best. It was usually sponsored by a beer (Coor's lite I think). Of course critics say channels were limited that is why it did so well.
Like Hogan or not, walk up to ten wrestling fans aged 14-60 and I bet most of them will know Hogan.
Hulk Hogan: Greatest Wrestler ever? no, he didnt know the difference between a headlock and wristlock but Hogan is the Biggest name in wrestling history
like the song but not the leriques ya im anti americain but oh well but hogan sorry dude you usto be cool until you went to tna i know you were tight on cash and needed money fast but you could have done a whole lot better than TNA who knows you could have been the raw secret GM or you might be now
Fuck hogan for ruining tna but this theme is legendary! Damn, i wish i was alive during the 80's!!!! at least i was born in 96 during the "new generation" era. :D
When I was a kid, wrestling was exciting because of one man - the immortal Hulk Hogan! No doubt about it - what he lacks in technical skill, Hogan always made up for with his sheer presence and awe inspiring interviews. Charisma owns the souls of children, and John Cena proves that every bit as much today as Hogan proved it back in the good old days.
I only liked Hogan when i was a stupid kid, but now that I'm older and wiser, I see his gimmick for the emptiness it really is. And his lack of talent and ability to sell. Slowness in the ring. The fact that he has a simple LEG DROP as his finisher. When will people give it a rest and stop asking him to come back or stay in the spotlight? The novelty wore out after the mid-90s for crying out loud.
The Hulkster.....Hulkamania.....Hulkamaniacs......Say your prayers, eat your vitamans, and I think something else........Well you know something mean gene.......Hey Brother........Well dude.......
From Venice Beach, California.........weighing 302 pounds..........the World Wrestling Federation Heavyweight Champion...........Hulkkkkkkkkkkkkk Hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooogannnnnnnnn!!!!
Hogan was always a real top-notch act... When Vince turned on him, problems just grew and grew. However, seeing him getting pinned so many times was fun. I just couldn't believe how weak he was in the cluthces of guys like Zeus, Taker, and Yoko. And then the mightier Big Show spike slammed him so easily, pinning the aging legend.
How many times a guy got pinned did not really matter. If he kept coming back, then one had to cheer him. Storylines were best when the hero had to fight hard.
@Patrickhollywood Amen to that Hulk Hogan will always be the greatest wrestler of all time. He made wrestling a worldwide sport and he is a household name above all others. There will never ever be another Hulk Hogan.
Hulk Hogan the greatest wrestler and well he is one of the greatest wrestler in the wwe history and well Hulkamania forever brother and well nWo for life
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i agree very overated and he's not the greatest all hogan had was charisma and the look he had no wrestling ability and sed his fame and power to get where he did undertaker is loads better and so is bret hart and the dynamite kid and jake roberts were all better and randy savage was too give me thumbs down i don't care its a fact
well thats your opinion and I respect that. But Hulk Hogan was a good wrestler. Not the best but good. I can agree a little bit about hm being overrated but hey every wrestler becomes overrated at some point and time. But it's good that you voiced your opinion.
