Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock, and Hulk Hogan were two of the most popular and electrifying superstars of all time. Their clash at WrestleMania X8 was one of the most iconic matches in all of WWE’s history and sent the crowd into a frenzy.

However, recently, another wrestling match is getting the fans excited as two icons are set to clash against each other. Former WWE superstar and wrestling legend Mark Henry, recently revealed how another match is building up to be the modern-day version of Hogan vs Rock. At AEW Forbidden Door, Bryan Danielson would be facing  NJPW’s icon Kazuchika Okada, and Henry believes it has the same potential.

What did Mark Henry claim while comparing Bryan Danielson’s match to that of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson versus Hulk Hogan?

Mark Henry is a wrestling legend himself, and using his years of experience he compared Bryan Danielson’s upcoming match with Kazuchika Okada with The Rock and Hulk Hogan’s clash at WrestleMania X8. Johnson and Hogan facing each other 21 years ago, was a major milestone in wrestling, and a sort of passing-the-torch moment.

Hogan and The Rock’s bout received immensely loud crowd reactions, and so did Danielson’s and Okada’s recent face-off. Comparing the two scenarios, Henry said, “it’s kind of like when Hogan and The Rock faced off for the first time. It was like a jet engine, you couldn’t hear anything. And you know they gonna show the promo from them in a desert. Bryan Danielson in the desert. And Okada’s response to that.”

Both the fans and Henry have immense expectations from this match and do not want to see the two of them fail. Henry further said, “There’s a lot on this card, and its gonna be really really good. And, I know Bryan Danielson and he’s not gonna let nobody outshine him. Okada better bring his A-game.”

Why did Dwayne Johnson and Hulk Hogan not main-event WrestleMania X8?

WrestleMania X8’s biggest attraction was Dwayne Johnson facing off against Hulk Hogan. However, despite it being the show-stealer and even the poster for the event, the match did not end up in the main event. Instead, Triple H and Chris Jericho ended up as the last match

Bruce Prichard, once revealed that WWE did not find any valid reason for it going as the main event, and instead focussed on the world title picture.
