You Hogan haters crack me up! He’s the GOAT. No one has influenced the business like the Hulkster. Austin is the only one who came close. Hogan’s run at the top was longer than anyone’s.
Maven said he wakes every morning with pain. So I can just imagine how much pain hulk is in. Even just doing a couple years in the business takes a lifelong toll on the body.
@@jasonrice9973so a man who wrestled for 6 years shouldn’t be complaining or talking about his pain. What’s wrong with you? Regardless of how many years anyone has spent in the ring. They all sacrificed their bodies for our entertainment.
That would've been a perfect send off. Still my favorite Hulk WrestleMania match to this day (Tied with WrestleMania 3). The Pop the crowd in Toronto gave Hogan was incredible! I remember seeing this as a young man in my early 20's, at a friend's house. We all pooled our money together to get the PaperView. I became a kid again during that match, and always do whenever I revisit it; which I do frequently.😊
It was the old school mentality; travel, the 300 plus days of wrestling and sometimes multiple matches a day, the gym, bar fights, drugs, alcohol and life stresses. It was too hard and too fast and we have lost many wrestlers before their time
Plus his diet was 12 fried eggs, 2 hamburger patties & Oatmeal.. all he had to eat was all protein for the 400 wrestling matches a year that he did!! Crazy!!
'embellish' fudge word for lie...yeah great for your enjoyment growing up..but in my experience when someone lies repeatedly there is always some poor sucker who had their reputation ruined by bit the scumbag who was prepared to lie 'to get ahead'...Hulk is that man...lie about you own accomplishments is one thing..lying about others and claiming credit is wrong
Very true I have neck, back & knee problems no joke but he’s been in pain longer than I have. So you just roll with the punches & try not to focus on it you’ll be ok cuz alternative is you start relying on substances to take the edge off or remove it completely by increasing the dosage & next thing you know your an addict like so many wrestlers were
@@BradBrad-ff6hqhe lies about alot but I doubt he is lying about pain. It's known facts that he wrestled through a ton of injuries and plus he is an old man.
as someone with 2 broken disks, I can understand what he’s talking about. every day you wake up with pain, but if someone asks you if you would do something you’re passionate about even if it causes pain, the answer will always be yes.
@@alex6mar Hey, if I'm a POS for not bowing down to a racist, a destroyer of careers, & a pathological liar, I think I'm okay with being a POS. Also, I don't recall saying leftism is a personality trait; in fact, I don't recall mentioning it at all in my comment. Go read a book... if you can.
@@ripulisipulit Do you mean the social narrative? Hogan was never a racist, people who know Hogan would tell you it is a bunch of horseshit. People like Booker, Stevie Ray, Kamala, and Tony Atlas all came to defend Hogan. I think if Hogan were racist, these guys would have all come to blast him after the N-word incident.
I'm on ten years of factory work and feel pain every day. Sometimes it's actually too much. So i can't imagine how much these guys hurt after decades of that life.
"I'm in pain all the time but I'm used to it" As someone with pretty advanced arthritis and chronic pain I totally get what he means. It just sucks that as a younger person people just look and say "You seem healthy though" when that's so far from the truth.
For someone who is 70 he is pretty healthy and has those things as much as those things sucks it could be way worse he could be paralyzed or a lot worse dead.
@@joeborromeo8693Nope. He captivated fans, and put butts in seats like nobody else during the 80's. Pro wrestling would never have reached the heights it did without him.
Tbh all wrestlers have wrestled for too long, the shit is crazy, i have no idea why the WWE has not invested in better, safer ring technology. Use rubber instead of wood planks, have more springs on the ring to absorb more of the impact, i don't know but do something, the fact dudes need to take pain pills after work is a major problem
Tbh it's the amount of matches that can cause the issues. Imagine putting you're body through trauma constantly for 4-5 times a week for years on end it's just gonna add up. Like Steve Austin said you only have so many bumps on your bump card before the issues begin
Also why is wrestling all year round? All sports have an off season all tv shows have an off season. Yet wrestling nope. The star wrestles until he’s injured then it’s next man up
The rings they had in the WWF in the 80s were also hard as rock with very little give, I'm sure that contributed a lot on it's own to his hips and spinal compression from all those leg drops.
Blame that on Kevin dunne. Because the reason the rings are harder and didn't have much give compared to the ones that used to be in WCW and ECW is because he didn't like the way they sounded on television when guys would bump so to make the ring quieter they had to make the surface harder.
I think that's true too. Like today's rings are not easy to bump on by any means, but they're more well off than back in the day, reason why you almost see no one jumping off the top rope back then (and you didn't need too, to get a reaction as a lot more people still believed it was kayfabe real)
Never forget that the Hulkster once wrestled 400 days in a year Edit: for all the butthurt marks, Hulk himself clearly stated in his "My Life Outside the Ring" book that "If I say I wrestled 400 days a year, it's no exaggeration. My years were actually longer than 365 days." He said "days", not "times". It's not too hard to Google something before you make a comment.
Well he's been using a walking stick or cane for sometime now. So not sure how good of a shape he is in. But he probably exaggerated his pain story here.
@@joro7304 Dude is 70. No way he's lying about how much it hurts. He didn't even sensationalize his pain. This was the most down to earth I've ever seen Hogan lmfaoooo
I think Hogan should have stopped wrestling after wrestlemania 19. But at the same time I get it. When you do something for soo many years, it's in your blood and it becomes hard to let go of. This is why a lot of wrestlers end up coming out of retirement after a few years.
@@CrucialConflict.At least eat a sandwich or something before that otherwise you are going to get ulcers. My cousin got ulcers from too much ibuprofen.
When people say it's fake, they're saying the outcome is pre-determined. They're not saying it doesn't take skill or strength and they're not saying it isn't hard on the body.
What an incredible career. This guy almost singlehandedly pushed wrestling into the stratosphere. From the American Hero Hogan to the Hollywood Hogan stage. Amazing
So let's look at the real hulk Hogan. Stole his whole gimmick from superstar billy Graham, his words not mine. Almost singlehandedly? So Andre had nothing to do with it? WrestleMania doesn't turn into anything with piper, captain lou who was the start of the rock and wrestling connection and so on. He buried people, refused to put people over even when it would have been better and helped the business forward. People need to stop praising him and stop giving him a platform.
Remember when he lied about undertaker dropping him on his head when didn’t come close to the ring or chair then tried saying he might have done some to his spine because undertaker had the tombstone to tight. I have no doubt he’s in pain and not lying about that but he’s a well known liar.
Sting is a great example of good longevity. With the exception of the Seth Rollin match, the stinger never really got into any bad injuries nor had to go through any surgery. He’s also able to move a lot better compared to the majority of wrestlers who’s at similar age.
I'm in pain everyday for doing Traditional Tae Kwon Do for 15 years. So this makes perfect sense. But like Hogan says he doesn't complain about it because he's used to it. I can say I've become numb to the pain all I take is a Flexiril if my muscles Spaz too hard which is once a year but a lot of times I forget I am having spams due to tolerance.
Rather you liked him or not he went out there put on a show best he knew how to he really gave it his all from 80s hero to 90s villan the man truly loved what he did
You can't deny when you think of Wrestling hes one of the first people that comes to mind ! Many Wrestlers didn't like him....But i guess he was there to make Money not friends....
I mean hes 70. Most 70 year olds I know are in pain. But he can still function at an incredibly high level. Much higher than most 70 year olds. Which is from his health choices. You got to live out your dream and then some. You wrecked yourself and still ended up in a place most other would love to be in. He can say he wishes he ended soon. But if he did he’d be saying “I still had more” and still be in pain. Either way brother. 😂
my mum has to sleep on about 4 covers blankets quilts whatever you wanna call them because she has MS and osteo arthritis, she was a great swimmer won many medals and trophies when she were younger and we've always wondered if that played a part in anything... for a time I thought about doing some bjj... but I've realized... I dont wanna be old and in pain. These guys I can understand it... they get fame money happiness from what they do but at the cost of health. Being old is hard enough... being old and in constant pain... yh... fk tht.
I know when my sciatic nerve pain flares up, I have to do all sorts of weird things to prevent putting my body in positions that will cause unbearable surges of pain kind of like how he described when he moves himself away from the sink after brushing his teeth. I'll be getting a date to have surgery on my back in a couple weeks and have my L5 disc shaved and I really hope that prevents sciatica for a long time. That sort of pain really sucks LOL
Welcome to the gang brother...3 back surgeries here last one doc went thru my side . 2 years later, back to 95 percent of what I could before the hardware was installed.
"I didn't get the memo that it was fake." I love that quote. That's exactly how I feel about people who think that pro wrestling is totally fake. Get into the ring with one of the wrestlers, and see how "fake" it actually is. The pain and physicality is FAR from fake.
Hogan wonders why he's had a dozen back surgeries, he used to drop that leg from top rope height. All that impact on his spine crushing his vertebral discs my goodness.
Watch the Police Body cam video, where Hulk Hogan's SON gets pulled over and arrested for DUI, and Hulk actually shows up at the scene to talk to the officers. But he was very respectful to the officers and he didn't try to use his fame to defend his son, he was all for tough love and letting him learn his lesson! Hulk Hogan is a very respectable person!
Hulk hogan I hear ya.I live in pain from football and then being a laborer.THE TRICK is never stop moving and get in a pool because that’s what made me have a lot less pain.
It's not necessarily because of the leg drop (not saying it doesn't take a toll on the lower backs and hims especially for a guy hulk's size) but it's the insanely hard ring he was doing it on in the 80's/early 90's
Lol I can relate to hogan. When I take edibles I usually take it for sleep then when somebody calls im like oh noo I don't want to answer, I feel weird
Yep. My Dad warned me on this. I wanted to be a bodybuilder when I was young. He said; " Why? So you can be all crippled up when you reach my age?" We went to a wrestling tournament in Winnipeg and I got to see Hulk Hogan. My argument to my Dad was I love weightlifting and I could get rich like these wrestlers lol. He said, " what good is all that money when you living your life out of a wheel chair?" "Bodybuild to stay healthy and in shape. Not to become one of these monkeys. Go into a career that uses your brain. If you take care of your body and health, your brain maybe the only thing left when you get to my age....
I saw an interview with Maven a while back, and he said he’s in some amount of pain every day, and that dude only wrestled for about 9-10 years. Hogan wrestled for what, like 31-32 years? Love him or hate him, if guys who wrestled 1/3 of the amount of time Hogan did are in a lot of pain, then you gotta imagine how much pain Hogan deals with.
*FUN FACT:* Dave Goelz (Gonzo’s puppeteer) has suffered a number of injuries due to the way Muppet performers must hold up their arms for extended periods and contort into small spaces. These include four shoulder surgeries and a hip replacement. That just goes to show that any job where you’re not sitting still, deserves the utmost respect. Never underestimate a man who plays with puppets, because in that profession, you’re putting in just as much blood, sweat and tears as a wrestler or boxer. Therefore, the men on Jim Henson’s payroll are just as masculine as Hulk Hogan and Muhammad Ali.
Wrestled? Wrestled? 😂😂😂. His leg drop finish is what did him in though. Just falling straight on his bottom with his momentum and weight did him no favors.
Hogan's creative control will not let him lose to pain clean and if he does lose it will be by interference and he automatically gets his win back bc that's the only way that works for him Brother
Hulk, try wild lettuce. I am 78 with arthritis pain, and have been using wild lettuce tincture for several years with excellent results. It is natural, non addictive, and has been used for centuries by native Americans, and was used by doctors in the civil war to relieve pain of battle wounds.

my mum has to sleep on about 4 covers blankets quilts whatever you wanna call them because she has MS and osteo arthritis, she was a great swimmer won many medals and trophies when she were younger and we've always wondered if that played a part in anything... for a time I thought about doing some bjj... but I've realized... I dont wanna be old and in pain. These guys I can understand it... they get fame money happiness from what they do but at the cost of health. Being old is hard enough... being old and in constant pain... yh... fk tht.
HULK HOGAN SO GREAT ON CHRISVANVLIET !!!!
That guy is a Legend, when you hear word "wrestling" you immediately see the image of him in your mind.
I know when my sciatic nerve pain flares up, I have to do all sorts of weird things to prevent putting my body in positions that will cause unbearable surges of pain kind of like how he described when he moves himself away from the sink after brushing his teeth. I'll be getting a date to have surgery on my back in a couple weeks and have my L5 disc shaved and I really hope that prevents sciatica for a long time. That sort of pain really sucks LOL
Welcome to the gang brother...3 back surgeries here last one doc went thru my side . 2 years later, back to 95 percent of what I could before the hardware was installed.
The Leg drop over the years
To be fair he looked 65 years old when he was 30,
Slamming Andre in ' 87 & ' 88 was #Insane
That he is still walking unassisted is amazing.
"I didn't get the memo that it was fake." I love that quote. That's exactly how I feel about people who think that pro wrestling is totally fake. Get into the ring with one of the wrestlers, and see how "fake" it actually is. The pain and physicality is FAR from fake.
They are dumb..
The matches the fixed but the hit is still real
Let me him with with a steel chair in their head and let's see how fake is it
Most honest 2 minutes of his life
Hogan wonders why he's had a dozen back surgeries, he used to drop that leg from top rope height. All that impact on his spine crushing his vertebral discs my goodness.
😂
When it comes crashing down and it hurts inside… literally
It's my son nick and I don't want to answer it. lol
hogan is natural icon
@sumimasenpanda
As opposed to an unnatural icon??
lol!
Tylenol everyday is going to mess up his liver
I’ve been wrestling since the 70s brother. The 1870s.
Hogan was ancient old even back in the 90s. Not surprised his in so much pain as those leg drops definitely had their affect on him
Wrestling is so physically demanding that guys half his age experience a lot of pain. And so many die so young. He's one of the lucky ones.
Respect to you, Hogan! GOD Bless
Watch the Police Body cam video, where Hulk Hogan's SON gets pulled over and arrested for DUI, and Hulk actually shows up at the scene to talk to the officers. But he was very respectful to the officers and he didn't try to use his fame to defend his son, he was all for tough love and letting him learn his lesson! Hulk Hogan is a very respectable person!
Hulk hogan I hear ya.I live in pain from football and then being a laborer.THE TRICK is never stop moving and get in a pool because that’s what made me have a lot less pain.
He needs to start the day with an edible and just accept the weed realm as his new home.
Don't complain about it
Proceeds to complain
Most iconic wrestler of all time
It's not necessarily because of the leg drop (not saying it doesn't take a toll on the lower backs and hims especially for a guy hulk's size) but it's the insanely hard ring he was doing it on in the 80's/early 90's
What a wave of emotions will rock our hearts the day Hulkamania is dead and gone.😢.❤.😭
Lol I can relate to hogan. When I take edibles I usually take it for sleep then when somebody calls im like oh noo I don't want to answer, I feel weird
I like to watch it but don’t blame these people for quitting early
Being a plumber for years gives u the same type of pain
Being a carpet installer is worse.
"I'm not good with being normal"
Good god Terry and I are the same....
Just think of how much more pain he would be in if he had really wrestled.
I’m a hulkamaniac. Love the hulkster
Yep. My Dad warned me on this. I wanted to be a bodybuilder when I was young. He said; " Why? So you can be all crippled up when you reach my age?" We went to a wrestling tournament in Winnipeg and I got to see Hulk Hogan. My argument to my Dad was I love weightlifting and I could get rich like these wrestlers lol. He said, " what good is all that money when you living your life out of a wheel chair?" "Bodybuild to stay healthy and in shape. Not to become one of these monkeys. Go into a career that uses your brain. If you take care of your body and health, your brain maybe the only thing left when you get to my age....
Construction workers are in pain once they hit their 50s. Back, knees, etc. I can’t imagine what they, and wrestlers go through in their old age.
Hulk Hogan: I should probably have stopped taking bumps decades ago.
Rick Flair : Hold my beers.
I saw an interview with Maven a while back, and he said he’s in some amount of pain every day, and that dude only wrestled for about 9-10 years.
Hogan wrestled for what, like 31-32 years? Love him or hate him, if guys who wrestled 1/3 of the amount of time Hogan did are in a lot of pain, then you gotta imagine how much pain Hogan deals with.
Hulkamania Forever!!
*FUN FACT:* Dave Goelz (Gonzo’s puppeteer) has suffered a number of injuries due to the way Muppet performers must hold up their arms for extended periods and contort into small spaces. These include four shoulder surgeries and a hip replacement. That just goes to show that any job where you’re not sitting still, deserves the utmost respect. Never underestimate a man who plays with puppets, because in that profession, you’re putting in just as much blood, sweat and tears as a wrestler or boxer. Therefore, the men on Jim Henson’s payroll are just as masculine as Hulk Hogan and Muhammad Ali.
He needs a great daily warm up process. My past injuries became less a factor when i learned how to ready my body each day (with a Tylenol or two).
Wrestled? Wrestled? 😂😂😂. His leg drop finish is what did him in though. Just falling straight on his bottom with his momentum and weight did him no favors.
Hogan's creative control will not let him lose to pain clean and if he does lose it will be by interference and he automatically gets his win back bc that's the only way that works for him Brother
The mats were alot harder back in the day
Hulk Hogan is best man ever.
Say what u want about Hulk but he was the best. He made wrestling what it was. He entertained like no other.
Hulk, try wild lettuce. I am 78 with arthritis pain, and have been using wild lettuce tincture for several years with excellent results. It is natural, non addictive, and has been used for centuries by native Americans, and was used by doctors in the civil war to relieve pain of battle wounds.
Love you Hogan thanks for putting your body through HELL to make me happy as a young Hulkamanic
