Pro-wrestlers like Hulk Hogan are famous around the world for their raw power and massive physique. However, even these tough stars are scared of one man. Arnold Schwarzenegger may not be a pro-wrestler, but the seven-time Mr. Olympia can give many wrestlers a run for their money in the ring.

At the Hollywood action hero’s induction into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015, Hogan and others talked extensively about the Hollywood star and bodybuilder. “I don’t know if I’d want to wrestle any of his film characters, because Arnold is always unstoppable in his films,” said Hogan, referring to Schwarzenegger’s role as the Terminator.

It’s no wonder that many WWE stars like David Otunga and Hogan do not wish to take on the Terminator; the WWE Hall of Famer was an inspiration to many bodybuilders and wrestlers. In his prime, Schwarzenegger could lift 243 pounds in one attempt. This is an impressive feat even by modern standards. No wonder fans went crazy when the WWE 2k16 game included Arnie as a playable character.

Reportedly, Arnold was a machine of pure muscle, with a 57″ chest, 28.5″ thighs, and 20″ calves. One can only imagine how intimidating the Austrian Oak would have been in the ring, facing off against other greats like Big Show and Sting.

When pressed further, the Hulkster revealed that he would have loved to have T-800 with him on the nWo. The stable comprising Hogan, Kevin Nash, and Scott Hall is definitely the perfect group for old Arnie, whose gutsy attitude won hearts all over. Fans can’t help but imagine how Schwarzenegger would take over the ring with the ‘New World Order’.

The nWo’s ‘street gang’ gimmick would have benefited with the one and only Terminator. To witness Hogan’s heel turn alongside Arnold would have appealed to any avid fan. This would have also made Schwarzenegger a two-time WWE Hall of Famer, both in 2015 and 2020.

Unfortunately, with the Hollywood icon recently turning 75, it seems like his “terminating” days are over. However, fans still wonder how things would have been different if Schwarzenegger had joined the nWo.
