And Hogan is an asshole, huh? Let's take a look:
AWA
Hogan won the Championship twice, both times having it taken back from him and given back to Nick Bockwinkle.
WWF / WWE
In 1988, Hogan lost the WWF Title to Andre the Giant.
In 1989, Hogan layed down for The Ultimate Warrior.
In 1991, Hogan lost the WWF Title to The Undertaker.
In late 1991, there was a mess over the Title, and it was held up.
In the mid-90's, Hulk Hogan lost the belt to Yokozuna.
In 2002, Hulkster got the Title back and lost it to Undertaker.
WCW
Hogan lost the WCW Championship Title to The Giant / Big Show.
Hulk Hogan lost the WCW Championship Title to Lex Luger.
Hulk Hogan lost in a WCW Championship match to Sting.
Hulk Hogan lost the WCW Title Belt to Bill Goldberg.
Hogan lost the WCW Heavyweight Title to Ric Flair.
Hulk Hogan lost the WCW Heavyweight Title to Sting.
Now out of all of that, the Title was held up once in WWF - and was basically given to Sting at one point, over much controversy. The AWA switches had nothing to do with Hogan not wanting to lay down, but more about AWA wanting to keep Bockwinkle as top heel (essentially doing nothing for Hogan though, as he'd never get a Title reign).
Every other time, Hogan has done business for the company he works for, be it WWF / WWE or WCW. I don't understand how people praise Michaels and knock Hogan, when Hogan is a FAR bigger draw, and at least does what is good for the company while he does good for himself - unlike Michaels.
