While the former WWE champion has been friends with Schwarzenegger for a long time, a couple of years back, he formed a bond with Coleman as well.

Hulk Hogan shoots back at haters
Both Hulk Hogan and Coleman are icons in their respective sports. The two have also gone through numerous surgeries and recovered well. Hence, Hogan termed the bodybuilder as his inspiration, seeing how he trained in the gym after surgeries.
After Hogan’s Instagram post, he offered for the pair to train at his house or even wrestle together. But there was some criticism from people about them working out.
On this, Hogan took to Twitter to respond, channeling his pro wrestling persona.
He wrote, “For all you Johnny come lately bodybuilders or gym owners, this is between me and Ronnie Coleman and it’s going down at his or my house so B**T OUT!!! HH.”

Doesn’t matter if it is the 1990s Hollywood Hogan or the recent iteration, the WWE Hall of Famer seems to always come up with a savage response.
And this time as well, he had the perfect response to those who may have objected to them sharing the gym or the ring.
Coleman thinks he could’ve taken on Hogan in his prime
A few months ago, Coleman was asked to pick between Hogan, and the boxing legend, Mike Tyson, as his preferred opponent in a ring.
He said, “Actually I probably could have jumped in the ring with Hulk Hogan I think I could probably give him a run for money.[…] Yeah I wouldn’t mind trying to get in the ring with him and see what I can do.
