If we look back to the timeline of 1991 to 2010, we might see Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair living their heydays in the pro wrestling circuit. However, even if that time doesn’t exist anymore, the chemistry between the two heavyweights remains the same to date.
The Nature Boy and The Hulkster shared the ring several times in WWE, WCW, and IMPACT Wrestling. Their last bout was in 2010 when Hogan joined forces with Abyss to defeat Flair and AJ Styles on an episode of IMPACT Wrestling. However, despite the friendship they formed over the course of years, they had their share of awkward and unpleasant moments as well.

Ric Flair has been widely known for his lavish over-the-top personality. His careless deed was once checked by long-time friend and in-ring rival Hulk Hogan.
During a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, the Hulkster revealed that he had to stop Ric Flair when he wanted to sing the song, ‘My Din*aling’ at his Hangout.
Hogan thought it wouldn’t be right for Flair to sing the song with inappropriate content as there were kids around.
”I had to shut Flair down. Flair came in here and wanted to sing ‘My Din*aling’ — so that’s it, cut him off! I got a gong -makes gong noise- because if you cuss that’s the end of the song. Just the content of the song, because I do have kids in here, and when I buy shots for everyone two or three times a night, the kids get milkshake shots.’‘ Hogan noted.
Hulk Hogan has gone through a lot in his life lately, but still somehow never fell short of stories to tell his fans. Another of his recent stories includes his thoughts on Flair as a class wrestler.
