shitbag things hulk hogan did

[NormanSmiley]

in honor of the egomaniac showing back up to suck more airtime out of events with cupping his hand to his ear and saying brother 46 times in 15 minutes, let's talk the hero to most and the immortal douchebag to others.

whether in the ring or out, list creative control bullshit, lame ass movies or anyone of his 4 wrestling moves that were absolute dogshit

[NormanSmiley]

first and foremost has to be mania 9!

[whiteyford]

Wheres Rammsteinmad? This is his thread.

[whiteyford]

And Santa With Muscles.

[Malfeitor]

It's as if Hogan did something to you personally. He is what's best for business.

[whiteyford]

He did film SWM, we all agree it was bad.

[Bad News Gertner]

Launch the WWF into the giant it is today, become the most recognizable star in wrestling history, the reason why you are watching Wrestlemania today, took WCW into height that it had never been, still get pops louder than the entire roster, had the greatest match ever with The Rock, become a pop culture icon.

Yup he sucks.

[NormanSmiley]

Vince Mcmahon, the rock, Randy Savage, Bischoff, DB & Ut & Austin, Austin again, & so did Zack Ryder .

so yep he does

[Malfeitor]

Gertner with the #badnews

[Bad News Gertner]

Vince Mcmahon, the rock, Randy Savage, Bischoff, DB & Ut & Austin, Austin again, & so did Zack Ryder .

so yep he does

Wht are you friggen talking about, you're just spewing nonsense.

[Bad News Gertner]

And it's a fucking business you retard. Christ, what don't smarks get about this. Jesus Christ.

[NormanSmiley]

Launch the WWF into the giant it is today(vince did this not Hogan), become the most recognizable star in wrestling history(the rock is not Hogan), the reason why you are watching Wrestlemania today(savage is, not Hogan), took WCW into height that it had never been(bischoff did this not Hogan), still get pops louder than the entire roster(db& undertaker and Austin will outpop him), had the greatest match ever with The Rock (Austin did that 3 times, not Hogan), become a pop culture icon (so did Zack Ryder who gives a fuck).

Yup he sucks.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I don't like Hogan, but I understand why they're bringing him back.

Also, you're delusional if you think Zack Ryder is a pop culture icon.

[NormanSmiley]

pop culture is youtube and twitter, dude transcended the WWE and got more famous in pop culture than he was in wrestling. ok maybe not an icon but point being Hogan isn't the only one

[NormanSmiley]

[QUOTE=Anybody Thrilla;4382644]I don't like Hogan QUOTE]


just leave it at that brother lol

[NormanSmiley]

i'm also going to blame him for the dungeon of doom shitshow

[Razzamajazz]

so if it's bad, hogan did it.
if it's good, someone else did it.

got it

[Anybody Thrilla]

pop culture is youtube and twitter, dude transcended the WWE and got more famous in pop culture than he was in wrestling. ok maybe not an icon but point being Hogan isn't the only one

I'm on YouTube and Twitter too. That's easy.

Let me put it this way...

Did you see that Radio Shack commercial where they say that the 80's called and they want their store back? Remember all of the 80's characters in that commercial (Hogan himself included)? Those were all pop culture icons.

If a similar commercial is made in 20 years, do you think Zack Ryder will be in it? I'm guessing not. Hogan actually might be again, though. Dude's a star. It's undeniable.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Hogan is best when not over exposed. His act wears thin when constantly "out there" but if he's kept as a special attraction there's few anywhere close to his level.

[Heisenberg]

Give credit where credit is due, Hulk Hogan saved Wrestlemania 9 by leg dropping the shit out of Yokozuna.

Hogan led the greatest stable to change the game, the nWo.

I'm sorry he didn't have the workrate of a Chris Benoit or Rey Mysterio

[whiteyford]

We all agree about Santa With Muscles though?

[Heisenberg]

When you are as big as Hogan's aura is, people are going to hate. I understand that.

He is human, I don't agree much with how he carries himself off camera, but I will always cherish the moments when I was a kid rooting for him in character.

[NormanSmiley]

All you hulkamaniacs please understand I am not saying hogan is not a star. I do not underestimate that he is a draw.

He couldn't get cleared to wrestle but instead he will find a backup way to hog some spotlight

And no its not if it's good its not him and him it's bad, anybody who would have made santa with muscles couldn't have saved it

Hogan is such an egomaniac that it makes his rhetoric get old anytime he comes back as opposed to other top former stars like austin, rock etc

[Razzamajazz]

He couldn't get cleared to wrestle but instead he will find a backup way to hog some spotlight



lol

[owenbrown]

man I am agreeing more and more with Gertner lately and that is scary lol

[owenbrown]

Is this "NormanSmiley" person for real or a sock?

[el bobbo]

"Suburban Commando" was a pretty shitbag thing that Hogan did.

[Nowhere Man]

Hogan is hardly free from sin, but I think the good he's done for the business far outweighs the bad. Yes, it sucks that he didn't put over Bret, but Bret ended up being fine anyway. Same with Undertaker and Sting; people remember them winning their respective belts from Hogan way more than Hogan winning it right back. Same with Austin and company getting shoved out of WCW to make room for Hogan's buddies; they went to greener pastures in WWF and became way bigger stars as a result. Not saying that was Hogan's intention, but the people who were going to make it made it one way or another, with the exception of maybe Vader, and there's only so far a guy can go wth a Star Wars character's name.

Compared to what Hogan did in terms of defining professional wrestling to the masses-- and to this day, only Austin and the Rock come close on terms of being synonymous with wrestling like him-- and a few enemies made along the way doesn't seem that bad. That doesn't excuse his shenanigans, but it does make up for them IMO.

[Fignuts]

the fuck is this a thread?

Why didn't you just post this nonsense in the Hogan returns thread?

So many shit threads lately that by all rights should just be posts in 100,000 replies. Thrilla, you need to start kicking some ass around here.

This is the only argument that gets me pissed off.

[Tanawesome]

This is the only argument that gets me pissed off.

Couldn't agree more! Hogan = Pro Wrestling!

[wwe2222]

There is a tangible excitement in the crowd when Hogan is at an event. Nothing else matches it.

[KaosDarksol]

I'm on YouTube and Twitter too. That's easy.

Are you saying Hogan is going to be alive in 20 years?

[Anybody Thrilla]

Yeah, probably.

[Anybody Thrilla]

If not, you've seen those Coachella holograms.

[NormanSmiley]

lmfao @ Coachella holograms thrilla.good shit, can see vince supporting it if he's still around. they probably no sell too

[Shisen Kopf]

Hulk Hogan made rasslin. Not only that but he is a real American who fights for the rights of everyman. If you can't dig that brotha then just move to some terrorist country.

[NormanSmiley]

Canada?

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Yeah nobody in Canada likes Hulk Hogan

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Especially not that one match with the Rock that got the biggest reaction ever

[Brigstocke]

The one and only Shitty thing Hogan ever did was squirting Nick Hogan into Lindas belly.

[Brigstocke]

Everyone knows you finish on the face of a woman that ugly...to cover it up..

[KIRA]

I don't see how or why people still buy into hogans 2 trick pony matches after having witnessed amazing matches like Taker V HBK and the unstoppable awesome machine that is Daniel Bryan.

But then theres that pesky nostalgia factor Hogan has going for him.

[parkmania]

Surprised no one has mentioned that the shit-bag thing is more Orton's style than Hogan's.

[Kingofdaswing]

Hogan is wrestling.

WWF in the 80's
nWo in the late 90's
Return run in WWE w/Rock

This guy spans over 3 decades, he is the most known wrestler in the world, and if it wasn't for him the wrestling business would not be what it is today. Show some respect to the Legend.

[Shisen Kopf]

Especially not that one match with the Rock that got the biggest reaction ever

I was at Rasslemania 18 woooooooo!!

[NormanSmiley]

Canadians have bad taste. They even like the wrong bacon. How can you fuck up bacon ?

[#1-norm-fan]

Norman Smiley called Zack Ryder a pop culture icon. I couldn't even continue reading the rest of this thread to see if he's been properly ridiculed before responding. That was fucking amazing. lol

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Well he's giving Justin Beiber advice to he must be a pretty big deal /sarcasm

[#1-norm-fan]

pop culture is youtube and twitter, dude transcended the WWE and got more famous in pop culture than he was in wrestling. ok maybe not an icon but point being Hogan isn't the only one

Still... the fact that that comparison was even attempted... lol

[#1-norm-fan]

Also, "He's the reason you're watching WrestleMania" is seriously not even an exaggeration. Even if you were more a fan of someone like Savage at the time, Savage would not have made WrestleMania what it became. It was Hogan. He put it on the map and was not just an interchangeable part as much as people who hate him want to believe.

[Bad News Gertner]

I don't see how or why people still buy into hogans 2 trick pony matches after having witnessed amazing matches like Taker V HBK and the unstoppable awesome machine that is Daniel Bryan.

Because like I've said for years: workrate isn't as important as personality.

Vince was grooming guys as early as the late 80's. Tom Macgee was supposed to be Hogan's successor, as was Warrior, Savage was given a run. None came close. It's a ridiculous statement.

[Bad News Gertner]

Canada?

Lol you have no idea how adored Hogan is in Canada.

[Tanawesome]

We like bacon so much that we made more.

I can't wait til Hogan comes out and tells Daniel Bryan he couldn't draw flies at an organic produce market..brother

HULKAMANIA IS RUNNING WILD OVER TPWW!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Hulk Hogan Vince McMahon and Roddy Piper made professional wrestling what it is today. You wouldn't be here if it wasn't for them. So play Real American right now do the ear pose, do the arm pose OR

WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN TPWW DESTROYS YOU!

so if it's bad, hogan did it.
if it's good, someone else did it.

got it

Sounds like the political spectrum.

[KIRA]

Because like I've said for years: workrate isn't as important as personality. Agree somewhat but Taker and Shawn both have personalties, granted due to the nature of his gimmick Taker's is rather subdued but he's had awesome one liners before and is pretty charismatic.

Bryan while he's not oozing with orange leathery bean bag hamminess like Hogan is just a really likable guy its a bit inexplicable for me anyway.

Shawn is a given

I hear you though its a shame mic skills come before actual in ring ability although one really shouldn't trump the other IMO as they are both vital to wrestling.

Was looking the photo with Hogan posing with the WCW title that still had Jeff Jarrett's name on it from WWE magazine/Hulk Still Rules issue from 2002. Damn :(

[#1-norm-fan]

Starrcade 97 is next on his list

If it was Zack Ryder vs Sting instead it probably would have been the highest grossing PPV of all time. With his appeal outside of wrestling and all.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Whatcha gonna woo woo doo?

[NormanSmiley]

Zack probably would have put him over clean. Since its all about what's best for biz

[Shisen Kopf]

without Hulk Hogan there would be no TPWW or any of you posters. Plus there would have been no Team Gorm or anything like that either. Hogan is a rasslin god.

Im not a huge Hogan mark, But I respect the fact that he is the reason wrestling became such a mainstream smash.

But I also question whether it was Hogans talent or the 'Incredible for the time' gimmick?

Would 'Hulk Hogan' have still been a phenomenon if the gimmick had been portrayed by someone else?

[Bad News Gertner]

Agree somewhat but Taker and Shawn both have personalties, granted due to the nature of his gimmick Taker's is rather subdued but he's had awesome one liners before and is pretty charismatic.

The height of Hulkamania is a lot like Woodstock. Unless you were there you have no idea how big it was.

So think of Wrestlemania XXX like this: WWE is offering a main event of Nickleback vs. Hoobastank. But they just managed to bring in Hendrix.

This is a no-frickin-brainer, the original idea behind the thread is dookie.

He burried HHH at backlash 2002!

he did shawn michaels right in 05

Lol Ibet Norman thought people would back him more.

[NormanSmiley]

Norman did not. He knows the love for hulk. Norman just knowshe ddid every self serving thing imaginable at every juncture. And also that some people just choose to hear real american and see past it.

[owenbrown]

this is a very one-sided argument

[parkmania]

Norman did not. He knows the love for hulk. Norman just knowshe ddid every self serving thing imaginable at every juncture. And also that some people just choose to hear real american and see past it.

Just because a man's a self-serving asshole behind the scenes doesn't invalidate what he accomplished for the business.




But enough talk about Chris Benoit.












See what I did there? Double standards are as inevitable as differing viewpoints. I can't be right until someone else is wrong.

[Savio]

I don't think he should have ever wrestled past 2003
