Slamming a 500lbs body is no easy task. But that’s what Hulk Hogan did on the grandest stage in 1987. But slamming Andre the Giant gave ‘The Immortal One’ his worst wrestling injury. The latter talked about it in the same interview.

‘The Hulkster’ said, “Probably the worst injury I had in the ring was at WrestleMania 3… I tore both of my biceps. This part of my back (left side) is solid, but this part (right side) is all torn away. But that was the worst injury. I tear both my biceps and back in one shot.”

The 69-year-old shared he never got his biceps fixed after that. Hogan talked about how being able to wrestle after the injury was a big thing for him. What are your thoughts on Hulk Hogan’s comments? Share your opinion below.
