Hogan until the Andre feud was having VERY good matches. The "Hogan couldn't work" narrative is 100% not true. They just haven't seen his house show matches. He got 3 very entertaining house show matches against lazy 1985 Don Muraco in a row at MSG. Not everyone could do that.

To me, working is about making what you do work. Get asses in seats. If that is happening because of you, it doesn't matter if you literally only throw a punch. Something about it is emotionally resonating. That's working because it's working.

Why don't we consider the opinion of another fictional character?

Thought you were talking about Hulk Hogan being a fictional character, with a penis bigger than the non-fictional Terry Bollea.

Ey, Spongebob's opinion is just as valid as the OP. I'd take the word of someone created to draw joy from children over someone created to draw anger from wrestling forum posters any day.

Hogans longevity at the top pales in comparison to John Cenas.

Pretty much every top guy ever had a better workrate and mat skills.

Hogan is the most recognizable pro wrestler with the blonde hair, red and yellow colors, bandana and mustache.

Other than most recognizable, he isn't at the top.
The Rock argument makes him a better actor. Has absolutely nothing to do with wrestling.

Comparing the weekly ratings during the Austin era and the Hogan era is just fucking insane. The format of the shows on Monday nights were night and day and Hogan rarely even appeared. However, the SNME with his rematch with Andre certainly more than sniffed Austin-era ratings. And merch-wise, do you realize the work one had to do to buy WWE merchant in the 80s/early 90s compared to the late 90s? You know the internet wasn’t a thing then.

And, while longevity itself doesn’t actually measure success, Hogan was the top draw in wrestling for a good 13 years. Saying his longevity at the top pales in comparison to Cena’s is just flat out wrong.

All of these points are just ridiculous.

Nwo merch? Hulkamania tops? Come on...

Erm....no.

Pretty much every top guy ever had a better workrate and mat skills.
When he was a heel he was meant to look lazy etc, it drew heat.

Yep

You can't compare eras. PPV, merch, television was completely different between eras.

Now that we have established Hogan is the greatest wrestler of all time. Where does he rate as greatest actor of all time?



Top 5?
