Controversial WWE Star Recalls Working With Hulk Hogan

Hulk Hogan is one of the most important figures in WWE history. He was the ultimate babyface of the company for more than a decade, which helped Vince McMahon to take WWE to the next level till WCW started.

Hogan returned to WWE in the early 2000s in the company with his nWo teammates Kevin Nash and Scott Hall. After nWo disbanded in WWE, the Hulkster had a brief run in WWE. This time he worked with new superstars and also won the WWE Championship twice.

Recently, one of the memorable superstars of the Ruthless Aggression era Muhammad Hassan appeared on the Cafe De Rene show, hosted by former WWE superstar Rene Dupree. He shared the stories of his time in WWE.

Hassan recalled the time he got an opportunity to share the ring with Hulk Hogan. They had a tag team match at Backlash, with Shawn Michaels being Hogan’s partner and Daivari being Hassan’s partner. He explained how famous and popular the Hulkster is in WWE Universe.

Hassan said, “Being in the center of Madison Square Garden, I have said it before when Hulk Hogan came out. We were beating Shawn Michaels. It was like the realization of the phrase ‘blew the roof of the place’, because it was so loud that when you are standing in the center of that it’s like the acoustics almost make you feel that you are rising off the ground. Like the sound waves are lifting you up and you’re going to take off. It was absolutely unreal.”

Hassan explained that Hogan was so easy to have matches with and had exceptional communication skills. Hogan and Shawn both made him comfortable while their match was on.
