Hulkamania! I love it! Yeah he's getting up there in age (the article says 49) but he can still bring it. Step aside, Rock, Hogan is the man!

Hogan was the most talentless wrestler in history. If you look at his first match in the WWF and his latest match, they will look exactly the same. Twenty minutes of some poor slob carrying Hogan around the ring while Hogan refused to sell his stuff. His big match with the Ultimate Warrior was deemed "the battle of the used car salesmen".

He was living proof that hype is greater than talent.

Isn't he "Hollywood" Hogan now, due to some legal issue with Marvel Comics?

I used to root AGAINST Hulk Hogan back in the 1980s. I remember being royally PO'd when he beat Roddy Piper in Wrestlemania III.

It was that day, that I decided to stop watching wrestling.

I was absolutely stunned the other day when I turned on the Opie and Anthony Show in the car, and who was on there but the Iron Shiek! Now that guy vs. Sgt. Slaughter was as good as wrestling got, with a little Nikolai Volkoff thrown in for some good Cold War action.

I've often thought to myself that with all the tension going on in the Middle East, it would be a great time to bring a character like the Shiek.
