You can’t become Hulk Hogan within seconds. The only one who can is The Hulk himself, and that’s just straying into the fictional world. In real life, one must not try to be Hogan.

A recent video clip shows a fan getting into an argument, ripping his shirt just like Hogan did, and picking a fight. Now, when The Hulkster did this, he was usually the one doing the whooping.

However, in this case, it was this particular man who tried to manifest his inner Hogan at the receiving end of the whooping. He picked a fight with the wrong man, who showered him with punches before manifesting his inner-Shawn Michaels and executing a superkick on the wannabe-Hogan.

In fact, his rivals and challengers knew they must be aware of the beast that was coming their way when The Hulkster ripped apart his iconic yellow gear.

But, how did Hogan evenly tear his gear, and not fail once?

Well, his ex-wife Linda Hogan’s brilliant idea helped him do the needful. It was, as per her idea, that Hogan’s gear had some rips along the spine and a tiny indent near the neck.
