Career

The name of " Hulk" was used in agreement with the editor Marvel, holder of the rights of famous the greenish colossus. The name of " Hulk Hogan" belonging to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), Hogan had to change some in 1994 when it left the WWF for the WCW (World Championship Wrestling) and was then made call " Hollywood Hogan" (in reference to its career of actor). Since its return to the WWF (become, meanwhile, WWE - World Wrestling Entertainment following the loss of a lawsuit against the World Wildlife Fund), it uses the name of " again; Hulk Hogan". It briefly catché masked, under the name of " Mr. America" , like under various variations of its pseudonym: " The Immortal Hulk Hogan", " Hollywood Hulk Hogan".

The popularity of Hogan reached its culminating point in the Années 1980. Vince McMahon, owner of the WWF, had decided to make of him a star not only wrestling, but also of the entertainment world in general, and by là-même, to make reach the WWF the world-famous personality. Hogan then adopted the look of the one of its predecessors, " Superstar" Billy Graham, and an attitude of champion patriotic, courageous, and moving back in front of no challenge. Bet successful for McMahon and Hogan, since the latter became one of largest the stars of the history of wrestling (if it is not largest any more) and made it possible the WWF to be made known apart from the medium of the fans of wrestling. Its legions of fans were called " Hulkamaniacs". Hulkamania, started in 1983, still did not die more than 20 years after… Its competition (and its victory) vis-a-vis invincible the Andre the Giant were one of the engines of this success, but he faced about all the largest stars of the medium: " Macho Man" Randy Savage, Ultimate Warrior, " The Million Man" Dollar; Ted DiBiase, Ric Sense of smell, Antonio Inoki…

Hogan catché as a " face" (i.e., in the jargon of the medium, a " gentil" , an all-in wrestler who cheating not) during almost all its career, incentive children with " to request and take their vitamines". He knew to find a second breath while agreeing to become a " heel" (a " méchant" , a cheater) at the time of his passage to the WCW where it was one of the pillars of a group of renegades called NWO (" New World Order"), consitué the old ones of the WWF. Since his return to the WWE in 2002, its character is again a " face".

Entered with the Hall off Famed of WWE in 2005, Hogan forms still today officially part of the manpower of the show " Raw" but its appearances are done rare. It returned by surprised into 2005 not very front Vengeance in a combat with Shawn Michaels and John Cena which it easily gains against Chris Jericho, Tyson Tomko and Christian after this fantastic return, it had two competition. With SummerSlam 2005 against " The Heart Kid" Station-wagon; Shawn Michaels (which it betrayed 2 weeks after its return) and its last, one year later, with SummerSlam 2006 against " The Legend Killer" Randy Orton (both overcome). It devotes from now on a good part of its time to the career of singer of its daughter, Brooke Hogan.

Hogan is known in the whole world, even by people not being interested in wrestling. In 30 years of career, it catché in the United States and Japan and gained 15 championships, including 6 times the belt of world champion of the heavy trucks of the WWF. Its " blow fatal" is a " descent of the cuisse" (Legdrop). According to the commentators, this blow is called " Atomic Legdrop" , " Immortal Legdrop" , " Legdrop off Doom" or " Legdrop" guillotine;. It enters on the boxing ring to the sound of " Real American" , a patriotic song signed by the manager Jimmy Binder on behalf of the WWF, or of Voodoo Child , the well-known piece of Jimi Hendrix.

Hogan owes mainly its fame with its physique impressing and its charisma rather than with its talents of fighter. Its style very technical, especially is indeed not based on the rough force.

An emission diffused on MTV, " The Marvellous world of Hulk Hogan" he is devoted, where one can see his life behind the boxing ring with his family and his children…

At the day of today, the WWE does not maintain any more any relation with Hulk Hogan, considered as a mercenary. Indeed, the WWE thought of calling upon him to fight against Big Show (an all-in wrestler almost as monstrous as André the Giant) in Pay Per View (PPV) WrestleMania 23 and thus to republish the exploit carried out 20 years earlier, but Hulkster required a too important seal (one speaks about a going sum from 6 to 7 digits) for one evening! It is known that Hulk Hogan likes the money, like noted it the fans who would have wished meetings of dedications, but certain stores once informed could not satisfy the needs, the Immortal one asked for a seal of 75.000 dollars right for a few hours near the fans. The WWE, could not make deal with this " at all; avare" thus decided to put a term at the relations with him. Another reason which because this rupture, the fact that Hogan refuses to lose a match. In spite of the versed astronomical sums has its account for an appearance, it refuses the idea to lose. Its last matches, in Summerslam 2005 against Shawn Michaels, and in Summerslam 2006 against Randy Orton, have both summer lost by its adversaries. Shawn Michaels had made in kind discredit it in their match to give him a lesson.

There is from now on a DVD entitled " Ultimate Anthology" who gathers the largest combat of Hulk Hogan, more of the no-claims bonus. This DVD is also available in French language at the distributer Silver Vison.

Hogan played in several films of cinema. Most important, that which made it possible to launch its career, was Rocky III with Sylvester Stallone where he played the part of Lip-of-fire (Thunderlips). The others all are regarded as turnips: Rate of combat ( No Holds Barred ), Mr Nounou ( Mr. Nanny ), the 3 Ninjas breaks out ( 3 Ninjas: Assault one Mega Mountain )… One of them, Santa With Muscles , was elected among 10 worse films of all times on the famous site The Internet Movie Database. More the share of people believe that his last confrontation goes back to Summerslam 2006 against Randy Orton but on April 27th, 2007, Memphis Wrestling carries out " The Clash Off The Legends " where he faces… The Big Show which had been announced as one of the matches of WrestleMania 23 but had been cancelled by afterwards. We learned that his Linda wife asked for the divorce without for the moment specifying reason. When the media questioned Hulkster, he said that he did not know anything of all that and that he was him same surprised of the reaction of his wife, he said that Linda had been in California for 3 weeks, after that, he did not want to speak more about this subject… Rumors say that his wife did that to save her couple…
