I know he worked Inoki, I don't remember the matches though. Hogan's matches were always bareable at best.

His matches are among some of the biggest ever in wrestling history and his matches in Japan showcased his technical ability.

He is the reason he wasn't in a blockbuster. HE DIDN'T DRAW. He had far more lead roles and did ZERO in all of them.

Suburban Commando beats the hell out of Doom.

So? There were also more house shows back in the 80's. And there were the same amount of Wrestlemania's every year and the numbers speak for themselves. And before you give it the bullshit about how less homes had cable then, compare the numbers Hogan did against Rock and Austin from 1998-2001.

in 1998, the draw was Goldbrg. Not Hogan. The years after that are the dying days of WCW.

And? What's the difference in ten years? Fuck all. Bret Hart was being paid nearly $3 million a year in 1997. Triple-H doesn't even make that in 2007 and there is far more money coming into the WWE now.

A. I want the source for the numbers on Hogan's pay.
B. You ever heard of an economic slump? That's what was going on in the 80s. That's why we got Reganomics. Then in the 90s and under the Clintons, the economy was great.

As a matter of fact, Austin

You're right. Austin plays a great racist redneck. It's almost like he isn't acting.
Quote:

Your argument for Rock being 10 times the movie star is that Hogan was never in a blockbuster.
|
It's true.
Quote:
|
Are you actually implying that Hogan is a better actor, or even nearly on par with Rock when it comes to acting?
|
No.
Quote:
|
Hogan could never act... so he didn't get major roles. Not much to say beyond that.

I restate that Suburban Commando is a better movie than Doom.
