Matt Borne, who wrestled in WWE as Doink the Clown from 1992 to 1993, once shed light on Hogan’s relationship with WWE legend Randy Savage.

Borne disagreed with Hogan’s comments about making up with Macho Man before his death. In an interview with Inside the Ropes in 2012, Borne said, “When he said that him and Randy had made up, after Randy had died, well that’s bullsh*t. Randy hated Hogan.”

He also didn’t mince his words when talking about why he hates Hogan. Borne stated, “He was an arrogant f**k. I still think he is, I look at him and laugh because I know him for who he truly is. I don’t like him, I really find it hard to even like him as a person. He’s a phony inside and out.”

Borne himself passed away in 2013 and his comments indicated he wasn’t Hogan’s biggest admirer. Hogan may have mended fences with Savage, but when it came to Borne, this wasn’t the case.
