WWE Legend Shares Hulk Hogan’s Hidden Motive Behind Making Him Successful

WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan turned the wrestling business upside down when he jumped ship from WWE to WCW in the late 90s. Eventually, WCW became the front and center of the business and even Vince McMahon couldn’t get past them.

During his time in WCW, the Hulkster was involved in a lot of things. Right from making some creative changes to main eventing PPVs, he did it all. However, recently, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T revealed that Hogan always had his back and his brother Stevie Ray’s back.

‘Harlem Heat’ was arguably one of the best tag teams back in the 90s. Booker T and his brother made waves in WCW and outside of it. However, Booker revealed that it was Hogan who talked with upper management to give Harlem Heat some push in WCW.

Speaking with Kristian Harloff of The Big Thing, the five-time WCW Champion said, “There’s a rumor that Hulk Hogan got paid money as well for doing that. I have always given him [Hulk Hogan] props for speaking up for my brother [Stevie Ray] and I, but there’s a rumor that he made money off of merchandising from Harlem Heat being successful, but I thank him for putting a word in for us.” 

Hulk Hogan is healthy again

The two-time WWE Hall of Famer was not in a healthy space last year. The first major bomb was dropped by ‘The Nature Boy’ when he confessed on the inaugural episode of his podcast, ‘The Wooooo Nation’, that the Hulkster was in bad shape.

A few weeks later, former WCW President Eric Bischoff also made comments about how Hogan was in an extensive physiotherapy program. However, his health was still not good.

Eventually, his bad health was confirmed when Hogan was seen using a walking cane. Many fans on the internet believed Hogan was on his last legs and all his surgeries and injuries were finally catching up to him.

Months later, Hogan uploaded his picture, where he flaunted his 24-inch biceps. Recently, Hogan uploaded a hilarious promo on his Facebook page, which signified that the former WWE champion is slowly getting back to his normal self.
