Hogan was one of those guys everyone would know who he is even if you didn't follow wrestling, like arnold for bodybuilding, michael Jackson in music, Michael jordan in basketball.
I've just heard his last wrestling appearance he was booed out the building mostly for supporting trump, a shame it ended like that.
Yep. And now that they brought back Saturday Night's Main Event, WWE acted as if Hogan didn't even exist. HOGAN was the reason that show became a hit.
The rematch with Andre still hold the record for the largest rated wrestling show on primetime TV....>EVER!!

Again, forget being "lean" or having "shape". Back then, Hogan was HUGE!!! And that was enough for me as a kid!!
