His death unironically made him more powerful than they can imagine like Obi-Wan in Star Wars.
The massive groundswell of support for Hulkster by millions worldwide has sent the monsters into tailspins either by them raging at the support or making themselves look like utter ghouls by dancing on his grave.

Weird thing about some opinions about HH that I saw since his death are either "I like him" or "I hate him." Rarely do you see people who dislike him but know his significance for the 80's American pro wrestling is something that might never be replicated ever.

Those in the hardcore camp of "HH's dead, don't you dare even speak bad about him in any way" and those in the camp of "HH's dead. Good riddance to that MAGA fuck" both look retarded in my opinion.

Awesome vs. Goldberg would've likely ended in someone dying, lol

Guy actually employed by WWE shits on the Hogan tributes and you throw a fit that it got posted lol. Please tell me what you’d rather have in the thread instead.

WWE employees have been bitching about Hogan for literal years (Big E in particular springs to mind.) This isn't revelatory.

The troon that @Johnny Hungee posted for mockery is great because he went into detail over why he's a fucking sped and a clown. He didn't take 400 screenshots and post them individually. Quality over quantity.

Hogan wasn’t a saint by any means, guy was a huge bullshitter, even in the last few years of his life (the Joe Rogan episode with him is a huge example) and refused to put many over when he probably should have (Vince tard wrangling him into putting Warrior over at WM6 and still kicking out at 3 comes to mind here), still WWE would probably not exist if not for the wrestling explosion in the 80s with Hogan and he’s still far from the worst person ever in the business morally wise, the list of completely irredeemable shitbags in wrestling history is shorter than one may think, wrestlers like every other line of profession has flawed people in it, Leftards thinking they are morally superior to Hogan is laughable, No one is God, I’ve said and done plenty of things I’ve regretted in my life sadly Hogan didn’t have the luxury of being a complete unknown like we are

I mean that's just business. No one from 84 to 90 was going to reach hulkamania levels. Maybe Warrior but he was a loose cannon. At least when he was on some "doesn't work for me brother" bs he was a legit name. You got wrestlers in the past 15 to 20 years who can't draw & losing viewership talking about not doing business. Like Jon Moxley's threatening to walk out on aew while performing without a contract because punk rejected his rocky 3 idea or Mercedes needing 9 titles to fill her ego.

Like you got literal curtain jerkers trying to big league other.

In Hogan's 84-92 WWF run I doubt he had to politic very much. He was the hottest thing in Wrestling and it was Vince booking him as strongly as possible. Top babyfaces were always well protected, even Bret and Austin. After Bret won the belt in late 1992 he didn't lose totally clean very often either. I can only think of Owen at WM10 (his own brother) and Shawn at 12.
 
Even if Hogan had to union bust it probably saved the industry considering the indie circuit would've died, especially the indie/death match scene. You probably wouldn't get Kenny omega or the bucks with a union. Kenny would probably got bullied out of wrestling entirely by Bill Demot.

People just can't accept that their heroes are flawed, human beings in the first place and that's fine. Hogan may have been a liar and an asshole who refused to put others over but I don't remember him murdering his own son and wife like Crisben Whah.

Comparing other wrestlers to Crispen Wah is the Godwins Law of wrestling

People can Seperate the art from the artist for murderers & pedos but can't do it for someone who lies & doesn't approve of her daughter's dating choices, which almost every parent want their children dating homogeneously.

"My daughter can't date or marry a nigger" is enough to wish someone's death in today's world. Crazy, I know.

Can't blame him if his daughter's choice of dates include an uneducated baboon or an unwashed pajeet.

There was a reason why WWF did a lot more international tours when Bret was on top.

Bret absolutely was a draw. Not on the level of guys like Flair or Hogan, but when you're stuck in shit feuds (seriously, how long did that godawful feud with Lawler last?) you can't really say that it is solely Bret's fault.

I don't think he would've been Stone Cold 2.0 or whatever if the booking was perfect, but he was miles ahead of Diesel if we're looking at it from a 'draw' perspective.

Yah, we need the room for your endless autism about literally every little thing that goes on.

This is what hurt the new generation so much. The golden era didn't want to put them over in any way at all (hell they went to wcw and out drew the new generation. ) so you had bret feud with Lawler for what it felt like months. Then he'd go on and fight Virgil. That's not gonna draw in the us

hey were anime cosplaying matches, in the one match Bandit was cosplaying as Goku wrestling another cosplayer before a bunch of wrestlers came into the ring and beat them both down, and in the other match, Kidd Bandit cosplayed as Naruto (Really just wearing some jacket that kind of looks like the Naruto jacket)
