Hulk Hogan is the ultimate babyface WWE has ever produced. He made Vince McMahon millions of dollars during the 80s. Moreover, The Hulkster is one of the closest people in the McMahon family.

Once, Hogan gave his opinion on unsolved rumors of a WWE Legend whose name was linked with Stephanie McMahon.

Hulk Hogan was asked in an old interview about the reason Macho Man Randy Savage left WWE. The interviewer pushed on the rumors that Vince McMahon blacklisted Macho Man because he might have had physical relations with underaged Stephanie McMahon.

Hogan replied, “What’s that got to do with anything? I mean, you know Stephanie is a grown woman  You know what brother, Macho, his name has never been uttered again out of Vince McMahon’s mouth. I’ve been back several times (at) SummerSlam with Shawn Michaels, (and) Randy Orton. I’ve gone back to Monday Night RAW’s big anniversary, 20th or 30th anniversary and you are right, brother.”

He added, “(In Randy Savage’s voice) ‘The Ohh Yeah…The Macho Man’s name has never been mentioned. If that’s true, maybe the reason, maybe that’s why he never went back there. I’m gonna do a little digging now too. I don’t know if he’s smarter, or he was just going for broke man, but you gotta give him props for going out on a limb bro.”

It clearly seems that The Immortal One was confused after listening to this rumor. The reaction he gave was a sudden one, and he wasn’t carefully answering the question by the host. Clearly, Hogan heard this rumor about the former 2-time WWE Champion and current chairperson of WWE for the first time in this interview.

Macho Man left WWE in 1994 and joined WCW. He was the part of Ted Turner’s company until 2000 when Vince McMahon brought WCW. He never returned to WWE. However, four years after his death in 2015, WWE inducted Randy Savage into their Hall of Fame.

Stephanie McMahon compares Hulk Hogan with Ric Flair

A few years ago, in 2019, Stephanie McMahon appeared on the Barstool Sports podcast The Corp. The host asked McMahon her views on Hulk Hogan vs Ric Flair. She talked about Hogan’s iconic specifics and called him “first ever, I think, truly global icon.”

She added, “Ric Flair is arguably one of the greatest superstars ever in the history of our business, from a pure talent standpoint, I think that even Hulk Hogan would say Ric Flair has me beat.”

The Billionaire Princess further added how the business actually is about storytelling. She shed a light on how The Hulkster has a great ability for storytelling with a few sets of moves.

However, she added, The Nature Boy was much bigger from a talent perspective. Stephanie McMahon stated Flair transcends our business in many ways than Hulk does.

The new Co-CEO of WWE further also said that she isn’t picking a side. She was picking two superstars who pose two different abilities in the business.
