A Brief History Of Hulk Hogan.
00:04
Hulk Hogan, born Terry Eugene Bollea on August 11, 1953, in Augusta, Georgia, USA, began
00:12
his wrestling career in the late 1970s.
00:16
After training with Hiro Matsuda and initially wrestling under different monikers, he adopted
00:20
the name Hulk Hogan.
00:22
He joined the World Wrestling Federation WWF, now WWE in 1979 and quickly rose to prominence
00:29
with his charismatic persona and massive physique.
00:33
Hogan's career took off in the early 1980s.
00:37
His first major breakthrough came in 1984 when he defeated The Iron Sheik to win his
00:41
first WWF Championship.
00:44
This victory marked the beginning of Hulkamania, a phenomenon that captivated wrestling fans
00:49
worldwide.
00:51
Hogan's character was portrayed as the ultimate American hero, known for his catchphrases
00:55
like Train, Say Your Prayers, and Eat Your Vitamins, and his iconic entrance music, Real
01:01
American.
01:02
One of the most memorable moments in wrestling history occurred on March 29, 1987, at WrestleMania
01:09
3.
01:10
Hulk Hogan faced off against Andre the Giant, a wrestling legend known for his immense size
01:15
and strength.
01:17
The match was heavily promoted, and the stakes were high, with Andre being billed as undefeated
01:22
for 15 years.
01:24
During the match, in a moment that has since become legendary, Hogan managed to lift Andre
01:29
the Giant and body slam him to the mat.
01:31
This incredible feat of strength stunned the audience and solidified Hogan's status as
01:36
a wrestling icon.
01:38
Following the body slam, Hogan executed his finishing move, the leg drop, to pin Andre
01:43
and retain the WWF Championship.
01:47
Hogan continued to be the face of the WWF throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s,
01:53
headlining numerous WrestleMania events and winning multiple championships, his larger-than-life
01:58
persona made him a crossover star, leading to appearances in movies and television shows.
02:04
In 1994, Hogan joined World Championship Wrestling WCW.
02:09
His career took another significant turn in 1996 when he became the leader of the New
02:14
World Order NWO, a villainous faction that revolutionized wrestling storytelling and
02:20
helped WCW compete with the WWF during the Monday Night Wars.
02:26
Hulk Hogan's influence on professional wrestling is immense.
02:29
He is often credited with bringing mainstream attention to the sport and playing a crucial
02:34
role in its global expansion.
02:36
Despite controversies and personal challenges, Hogan remains one of the most recognizable
02:41
figures in wrestling history.
02:43
The body slam on Andre the Giant at WrestleMania 3 remains a defining moment of his career
02:49
and a symbol of his impact on the sport.
