Joe Rogan said the first time he met Hogan he was around 6'8". The last time 6'4".  Wonder if his spine is shot?

He has a full laminectomy/fused spine like Ronnie Coleman.

Probably on pain pills like Ronnie and he seems to like to drink. Doesn’t look good for Hulkster.

He looks old, and is dropping weigh (down to #275), but he doesn't look bad.

Even if he's 6'6" I think 275 is too big for a man in his late 60s if we want the Hulkster to be with us a while longer, that is nearly a 32 BMI.

You don't see a lot of 32 BMI 80-year-olds walking around, muscular or otherwise.

Face looks rough but ok for the nonstop tanning he has done.

But he was moving around slowly back when he had that reality tv show.

I recall hearing Eric Bischoff recently in an interview saying it last time he saw Hogan it would take him like 20 minutes just to get in and out of his car.

Lower back problems are the worst. Every movement causes pain.

Yeah I hope I look that 'bad' when I reach 70 LOL

BB - was it you that posted the pic recently that showed Hogan was stood on a box for that famous confrontation scene with Rocky..?  (Apols if it was someone else I should be crediting)  I always thought that scene was a bit 'sus' ;D

you can always tell with spinal damage - the limbs seem to atrophy and develop strange - nerve signals aren't consistent or something

his legs were being to be affected a few years ago - sarcopenia is a bitch


I saw that candy ass son of his on kennyKo's YouTube channel a fews months ago - working out in Vegas - his kid doesn't have a spine either

Hogan at his peak was right at about 6'5". He's never been 6'8". Probably right at 6'2" now with all the surgeries.

Stallone always claimed to be 5'10" but realistically, he was closer to 5'8".

Thanks man - you're a machine!!  Can you be a little quicker next time please - that took you 5 minutes!!  Hahaha ;D

Hmmm...Is it my eyes, or do their legs look a little weird there?  Kind of fore-shortened maybe..?🤔  Sort quads and enoooormous heads!!

The “billed” height is almost always 2-3 inches exaggerated. Same with basketball players. Magic Johnson was never 6’9”.

With all the jumps in the ring, being 6’5“ 300+ pounds, heavy schedule, celebrity lifestyle etc I‘m surprised he‘s still alive. The body can‘t last forever. Probably ob a shit ton of pain meds too.

Yeah, I wonder who's wearing lifts, who's crouching down, etc. for this shot?  How did McMahon end up smaller than Sly ???

Seeing how insecure sly is, I wouldn't be suprised if he went off for 6 months to do that breaking legs surgery to get 2-4 inches extra height.

oh stop it. This is obviously fake. They made them look midget proportions. Unless they were short and took lots of HGH and just became giant midgets, nobody looks like that.

And these guys hang around too long. It’s not like football when you get cut, it’s over. In wrestling you can work the indy circuit forever.

It’s not like professional wrestling skills transfer over to any other industry. That movie the wrestler was very realistic. They usually end up working some shitty job.

It made the big movie sites - https://screenrant.com/rocky-3-sylvester-stallone-hulk-hogan-bts-image/ , and it was posted to his official account on Sept 23, 2021.

I'd say 70% are good - great episodes, 20% are decent (might be better or worse depending on how much you like the topic), and 10% are filler.

I do wonder how long they can keep it up for though, they are burning through the good stories fast.
