That shit killed me 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that shouldn’t have been on here, I don’t think it was that embarrassing. I thought it was hilarious. Not because it was a funny joke or anything, but because it was a stupid joke, but sort of how he said it and the way he tried to pull it off just made it one of those things that’s so stupid that it makes it funny.
The moment Dixie Carter hired Hulk Hogan and brought him and Eric Bischoff as well as Russo is the moment you knew it was gonna be the beginning of the end for the company, even though the company is still alive, albeit as Impact Wrestling. And the moment they got rid of the 6-sided ring which made TNA special is the moment you knew everything was off to a bad start. I mean, when a crowd chants for a ring that made a company unique and much different from other promotions, that's general indication that things are getting off on the wrong foot.
TNA always had poor to non existent ratings, ticket sales, PPV buys, and storylines. Nobody watches wrestling because of the shape of the ring. Especially when the ring surface injured the wrestlers.
6 sided rings were terrible.Just like every promotion on earth except wwf, tna had cables.It's the words of performers themselves that even if they had ropes instead of cables...they had no give due to how short they were because of the hexagon shape and the length of each side
Well, it’s true that four sided is more forgiven physically but definitely a lot of the TNA originals preferred the 6 sides because it gave them a unique identity Wrestlers who made their names in other orgs like Sting did not see it that way
I know that "Gay guy" blooper was from one of compilations of deleted scenes I saw many moons ago but when those moments were taken and shown (with Rock/Triple H rehearsal for their Judgement Day 2000 match for example)?
Hogan says staying fit boils down to three things. “Come down to the gym for an hour and a half every day, use light weights and try to be consistent with eating good food,” he says Meal 1 - 8 scrambled eggs, 4 slices toast, fruit and milk Meal 2 - protein shake, banana and 8 hard boiled eggs Meal 3 - 3 hamburger patties, potatoes and vegetables Meal 4 - large steak with mashed potatoes and corn Meal 5 - protein shake and 8 hard boiled egg whites
And lots of steroids. He asked Billy Graham back in the 70s before he broke in to the business how to take steroids. Superstar laughed and said “all day long, brother!” Apparently Hogan was sticking the needle in the same place every time and ended up with a mass of scar tissue the size of a golf ball and Graham had to tell him to move it around. “Stick it in your hip, then thigh, arm, and switch swords often.”
That is healthy eating. Not like a vegan diet that will actually Harm you, you need animal proteins for all aspects of health, even mental health. Check out Dr. Shawn Baker MD on CZcams. He promotes the carnivore diet.
i’m not sure the second time Hulk Hogan got the stadium name wrong was accidental, i feel like he did it on purpose as a joke because of what happened at 30, the first time it was an honest mistake the second time i feel like he was scripted to get it wrong just for a laugh
He does play the "old man" pretty well tbh. Pretty sure every young wwe fan has had their mom or dad call an event by the wrong name and I found it funny
He is the face that launched a multimedia empire. He took the WWF global and made nationally televised wrestling a thing. Even people that didn’t watch wrestling knew who he was. That’s why he’s so important to the history of the sport.
I was always a Roddy Piper/ Paul MR. WONDERFUL Orndorff fan. Piper's battles with Hogan made him. At least Piper talked like a real person not a cartoon character and this was before the cartoon! Hogan sounded wack and still does.
Say what you want, but Hulk Hogan is more than just a legend. Without him, pro wrestling would still be an underground spectacle with only a small cult following. There would be No Wrestlemania, no merchandising, wrestlers wouldn't be involved in movies and TV. Pro wrestling is one of the most popular forms of sports entertainment in the world, and Hogan is a Huge reason why. Case Closed!!
Yeah no. Hulkamania would have never existed period if it wasn't for THE IRON SHEIK agreeing to drop the title to him. Do your research before commenting nonsense.
Saying that is like saying if edison did not do his work on electricity webwould never have it... Oooooor someone else a bit later would still see the same problems and possibilities, and act on it. Come on now, humans are adaptable, someone else would have figured it out lol
I have this playing as I type. Good job on finding the first promo. I wonder if a certain WCW/NWO promo I’ve been looking for will show up. There was one on Nitro where he got the worst frog in his throat and wouldn’t quit talking.
Hogan was the guy that turned pro wrestling mainstream and popular in the mid 80's. His physique was impressive as he was billed at 6'8 300 lbs. He was the man who led pro wrestling to another level. HOWEVER... His mike skills were ok but lacked when compared to guys like Ric Flair, Stone Cold Steve Austin and the Rock. His wrestling talent was limited, he never used the ropes esp. compared to guys like Randy Savage, Ricky Steamboat or Jimmy Superfly Snuka. His in ring technical talent was nothing like Curt Hennig, Brett Hart or Shawn Michaels. Wrestling owes him a lot but he was not as great as he was hyped up to be. More like the first Ultimate Warrior who was huge and super over but had the same shortcomings as Hogan.
hogan actually could wrestle. if you watch some japanese matches or those with bob backlund in his early days, he did have some skills. i'm not saying he's as skilled as dudes like backlund, but he did know some moves & holds. warrior was one who couldn't wrestle, though.
@@jpbart1390 I agree with your comment, he just wasn't used as a "Technical wrestler" like some were but did have some ring skills. LOL on the Warrior comment, he needed the ropes to stand up half the time and looked uncoordinated. Great gimmick though and brought the arena to life!
I would say his promo skills are very good. He's great at playing the crowd to where he wants them. He was actually good in the ring, but doing that, especially with his height and weight, would have seriously messed him up.
Eric Bischoff grinning during that: "We want six sides!"chant. You just know right before they started the promo he had told Hulk: "Nah man they're going to love the squared circle, Hulkster...you should tell them this was Your doing." or something like that. 🤣
The Silverdome thing was the gift that keeps on giving. Paul Hayman even got in on the fun while doing a promo for Brock Lesnar after he conquered the streak, stating that Taker was beaten in the Superdome-and I quote- “SUPERdome, Hulk Hogan, not SILVERdome!”
I would argue with the statement that Hulk Hogan is the greatest wrestler of all time. He may have one of the biggest profiles, but he is a shit wrestler.
@@jordannewsom3606 I don't dispute the importance of charisma. The best wrestlers are those who help you suspend disbelief over the kayfabe. Hogan was a cartoon character. Savage was a better personality and a far superior wrestler. As a wrestler, Bret trumped them all. As a personality Shawn trumps them all.
At least Hogan didn't kill anyone (Jimmy Snuka, Benoit, Sunny), or violently beat his wife nearly to death (Dynamite Thug), all of whom is hated less than Hogan by internet wrestling nerds.
I introduce myself to all my future female partners as the strapmaster. I'm glad you brought this to my attention so I can sue him for gimmick infringement
Hogan is by far the greatest wrestler of all time. If it wasn't for Wrestlemania 1 and 2 there wouldn't be any future stars like (Insert wrestlers name who you think is a bigger star than Hogan) ... McManon and Hogan took wrestling from a side show to the main attraction.
What Hogan had going for him was the Vince McMahon hype machine taking wrestling nationwide and making it mainstream. I'll give him credit for having good promotional skills (once he figured out how to do them) and the look Vince wanted in a main eventer, but his in ring work was was lacking with his limited move set. The true greatest of all time is Nature Boy Ric Flair who was among the best in the ring and was the best with his promos whether he was a heel or a face.
That's a two-way street though; Vince needed a transcendent presence like Hogan to carry the main-event spot for those crucial years in the mid to late eighties and leverage WWF as a premier brand against the competition. If Vince didn't convince Hogan to leave AWA then his mainstream and national goals are much less likely to succeed. Contrary to popular belief Hogan does have some diversified wrestling ability as demonstrated when he wrestles in Japan; he is not a master technician but is capable of more than what he is known for. As far as I'm concerned he tapered off in the early nineties with a larger than life highlight occasionally but no longer the constant impact on wrestling, which is not likely to ever be equaled in greater western culture. Ric Flair is a better technical wrestler and straight talker (I would say that they are equals in the area of self-promotion and obviously Hogan had the visual look going for him) but even with all of his good and fresh material he could not carry the NWA to the same level of success. When he went to the WWF, it didn't skyrocket them into a new stratosphere and make it curtains for NWA/WCW due to his absence, so his impact isn't quite on the same level in spite of his talents.

Hogan trying to do Superstar Billy Graham on that first promo 😂
He tried to do superstar his entire career. He just developed some catchphrases along the way.
@@ryanscott4464 100% facts.
Him burying Meltzer was based tho
Hogan says staying fit boils down to three things. “Come down to the gym for an hour and a half every day, use light weights and try to be consistent with eating good food,” he says
Meal 1 - 8 scrambled eggs, 4 slices toast, fruit and milk
Meal 2 - protein shake, banana and 8 hard boiled eggs

Meal 5 - protein shake and 8 hard boiled egg whites
