Hogan's finisher
 

I just stumbled upon some random trivia about Hulk Hogan, and this is what I found:

In the NWO his finisher was the Powerbomb.

http://www.tv.com/hulk-hogan/person/124684/trivia.html

Never heard of this, so my question is did he ever actually finish a match with a powerbomb?

Never heard of it...mixed up with Nash?

Never seen him do it ever. Dunno why he ever would, especially in the nWo when Nash, Norton, and Hall all had powerbomb finishers.

Only other finisher besides the Leg Drop I know of is the Axe Bomber...

I think he used the powerbomb in his feud versus Kidman in 2000, but other than that I cannot remember him ever using the move

That would make sense because Kidman needs a reverse powerbomb spot otherwise the match doesn't count.

What about the Hollywood Roundhouse?

He used the Powerbomb during his FUNB gimmick

He used the 360 Splash in his early days.

Until he got a red ring of death, anyway.

Fixed :y:

He's not Nash.

:roll:

Yeah. Nash is widely recognized as the inventor and only one ever to be able to pull off a 720 Splash. Come on Guru Dave.

Didn't Hogan originally use a bearhug as a finisher? Then it changed to the Legdrop, or the "axebomber" in Japan.

lol FUNB. awful

The what?

Basically, FUNB is Fuck You New Blood..... Back in WCW when Hogan and the other old farts of WCW were The Millionaires Club taking on the young stars led by Rusoo & Bischoff.... also the time when he feuded with Billy Kidman like I mentioned earlier....

I seem to vaguley remember him having a powerbomb finisher in the videogame WCW vs nWo: Revenge!?

I don't think Hogans back could support a powerbomb.

Maybe not his hip, but his back?

nah his special was like a rip off of the Flair Flop and then he'd poke the other guy in the eye. it was really stupid

don't know anyone who ever played as Hogan on Revenge because his moves were so lame

Ah. yeah. Did he have a belly-to-back suplex/slam as his finisher from behind? Perhaps that's what I was thinking of.

I never played as Hogan on any games because he was lame all together. The only one I played as him was WWE Legend, but that was because I had to :p Lame!

Fingerpoke of Doom N64 Version

I wish that would be a finisher in all wrestling games. That would be fucking sweet!

Now THERE'S an iPhone app! iFingerpoke of Doom!

let us not forget this

Yeah, his special was so lame, and it was totally a Flair move.

:lol: skip to 2:48, when Bam Bam falls out of the ring he hits the ground exactly when Rude's music starts... Gets me every time I watch WM IV :lol:

lolll

Hogan's finisher originally was the shooting star press.

I love watching vids of Hogan from before his face hollowed out.
