Former WWF Star and Wrestling Podcaster Join Hands to Shut Down Hulk Hogan’s Wrestling Critics With Tall Claims From the WWE Legend’s WCW Stint: “I Cried in a Trip”

Hulk Hogan has been in the pro wrestling business for more than four decades. During his time in the industry, he gave many iconic moments to the fans to remember. His impeccable style and charming persona garnered him quite a number of diehard fans over all these years.

That being said, WWF star Ace Darling and wrestling podcaster Tim King were two of those hardcore fans who loved Hogan as a performer and a superstar. In a recent interview, both discussed his greatness as a pro wrestler.

Tim King couldn’t resist his tears when he saw Hulk Hogan turning heel

‘The Hulkster’ was the ultimate babyface of pro wrestling. However, in 1996, he relinquished his babyface character to turn heel. He joined hands with Kevin Nash and Scott Hall to form nWo. He expected to garner a lot of heat from his fans but instead was surprised with their positive response.

We don’t know about others, but this moment surely lives in King’s mind rent-free. While speaking on his show, The Tim King Show, he confessed he broke down into tears when he saw his favorite superstar turned heel.

He said, “There has never been a character reinvention ever, what Hulk Hogan did in WCW. I cried in a trip in the Wisconsin Dells. When I was 12 years old, I saw the replay on Nitro, what Hogan did the day before and I was like and my dad’s like are you serious right now?”

But that didn’t stop him from admiring ‘Hulkamania’ and his work inside the ring. He confessed that Hogan was his childhood wrestling hero. And he claimed his idol was not only the greatest babyface but also the greatest heel of all time.

Ace Darling shared the same opinion as him. He also heaped praise on the WWE Hall of Famer for his immaculate performances over the years.

Ace Darling acknowledges Hulk Hogan’s greatness

During the interview, Darling described ‘Hulk’ as a wrestler and sports entertainer. He explained very few possess the art of carrying out both qualities, and the WWE legend is one of them. Nobody sold more than him in the 80s. He has worked so hard in the wrestling business and created a name for himself; he stated.

He also takes a subtle dig at the haters who criticize ‘The Hulkster’ for not being able to perform as well as he used to. And he answers the reason is his old age. He adds that the age factor might be preventing him from displaying his full capabilities inside the ring as he did in the 80s.
