Larger Than Life Hulk Hogan Once Turned Match Maker for WWE Legend Who “Hung Out With Him a Lot”

WWE superstars are always gunning for each other in the ring. While wrestlers are always maintaining their on-screen personas, most of them always share a cordial bond outside the ring. Such is the case with the larger-than-life Hulk Hogan and his bonds with wrestlers from his generation.

Hogan, recently, opened up about playing matchmaker for the late great Road Warrior Hawk and reminiscing his younger days with the legend.

Reminiscing about his younger days, Hogan, in an interview with Theo Von, spoke about Hawk and how he played matchmaker between Hawk and his wife Dale. 

Calling Dale a wild one, Hogan quoted: “I introduced him to his wife. She was an aerobic instructor. I said I’m gonna introduce you to her then I’m out, cuz she’s a wild one.”

The immortal superstar continued to talk about Hawk by saying: “They ended up getting married; you know. So he was always here and I miss seeing him a lot cuz I hung out with him a lot.”

It’s really heartwarming to see Hogan pay his respects to the legendary superstar and remember playing a hand in introducing Hawk to his wife. 

Even though Hogan competed with him in the past, he has always maintained a mutual admiration for them outside the ring. 

While Hogan stood for Hawk, this isn’t the first time, the former 12-time champion has supported a fellow superstar.

Hogan’s admiration for Ric Flair 

Over the years, Hogan has showered praise and compliments on all fellow wrestlers from his generation. In the same podcast with Von, he shed light on being there for Ric Flair, during the Nature Boy’s critical health issues in 2017. 

He mentioned being one of the first people Flair’s wife, Wendy Barlow, called after the 16-time world champion got admitted to the hospital.

What’s more riveting is that after Flair’s surgery completion, Hogan was also one of the first few to meet Flair and check up on him, revealing their bond. The superstar, despite being arguably the biggest entity in WWE history, continues to extend his warmth and kindness to people around him.
