Hulk Hogan

Terry Gene Bollea, popularly known by his ring name Hulk Hogan, is an American professional wrestler, musician, actor, television personality, and entrepreneur. The wrestler can be easily recognized by his large frame, long white hair, handlebar moustache, and trademark feather boas. Growing up, he was an aspiring musician and a baseball player, but later chose wrestling as his forte. He received his training from the famous trainer Hiro Matsuda, and on the first day of training Matsuda broke Hulk Hogan’s leg. Hogan returned as soon as his leg healed and in doing so, earned the respect and admiration of the coach. Upon joining WWF, Vince McMahon wanted his character to be a red-haired Irish wrestler and wanted him to dye his blonde hair, to which Hogan refused. Eventually, he became a very popular wrestler and garnered several fans who he referred to as "Hulkamaniacs" in his interviews. He also became famous for his four "demandments": training, saying prayers, eating vitamins, and believing in oneself. His career got a big boost early on when he appeared alongside Sylvester Stallone in the movie ‘Rocky III.’
