Hulk Hogan Vs Vince Mcmahon

66-year-old wrestling legend Hulk Hogan is facing an eighth back surgery after a lifetime of physical punishment, but after being welcomed back into the world of WWE last year, Hogan is hoping to recover in time for a grand sendoff match in his hometown of Tampa, Florida, at WrestleMania 36.

Hogan told Arash Markazi of the Los Angeles Times that he wouldn’t be satisfied if the final match of his career occurred outside WWE, and that he’s talked to Vince McMahon about a potential return to the ring. Hogan last wrestled in 2013, in a six-man tag match for what was then called Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.

Via the Los Angeles Times:

Hulk Hogan wants one last match in WWE, and he wants that match to be against the one and only Vince McMahon. In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Hogan said he wouldn’t be able to live with himself if his last match ever was in TNA (which as of now, it was). Hollywood Hulk Hogan returns to WWF 2002 segment with Vince Mcmahon.

  1. On a recent episode of the 83 Weeks Podcast, Eric Bischoff talked about the relationship between Hulk Hogan and Vince McMahon.Bischoff, being great friends with Hogan for many many years, says.
  2. Hulk Hogan and Stone Cold Steve Austin are two of the names that come to mind in regards to the greatest WWE superstars of all time. Hogan dominated the ’80s as the top star of Vince McMahon’s.

“I talked to Vince, and I said I really don’t know if I could live with myself knowing my last match was with TNA. If I can get fixed, I pray I can have one more match. I told Vince, ‘When I get through this back surgery, I’m going to get in the best shape of my life and we’re going to talk about me having one last retirement match.'”

Hogan also has an opponent in mind – though the matchup may not be very feasible. For his sendoff match, Hogan wants a rematch of his 2003 bout with Vince McMahon – now 74 – at WrestleMania XIX. Hogan won that match, a bloody street fight, to avoid being forced to retire.

“I had such a great time with him in the ring at WrestleMania 19. I had no idea what to expect from him, but he’s a great bad guy. His timing is great. I loved wrestling him, but everything he does hurts.”

If Hogan and McMahon were to meet in the ring on April 5th, 2020, the two opponents would have a combined age of 140. That being said, it’s not totally out of the question, at least for Hogan. His style of wrestling later in his career didn’t demand much athleticism, though any bumps he may be forced to take would likely cause some serious pain at his age.

Vince McMahon, meanwhile, has always been a workout nut, and he looked like this on the cover of Muscle & Fitness just a few years ago.

McMahon has recently proven he’s still willing to put his body on the line for the business. In 2017, McMahon allowed himself to be headbutted and bloodied by Kevin Owens for a storyline.

Hulk Hogan Returns To Wwe

Hogan vs. McMahon in 2020 almost certainly wouldn’t be a good match, but the two legends could certainly play to the crowd for 5 or 10 minutes, and Hogan would get his picturesque exit in his hometown.

Jim Ross is a legendary WWE commentator and he recently spoke about Hulk Hogan vs Stone Cold never happening in WWE. Hulk Hogan is regarded by many as one of the most famous professional wrestlers in the world. Stone Cold is also regarded as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time.

After WWE bought WCW, Hulk Hogan made his way back to WWE with the NWO. However, Hulk could never reach the top of WWE after his return, although he was involved in some very important storylines, including a feud with Vince McMahon.

Jim Ross speaks about Stone Cold vs Hulk Hogan Never Happening in WWE

On his podcast, Jim revealed the real reason why Hulk vs Stone Cold never happened. According to Stone Cold, their styles actually clashed. Stone Cold never personally against the match.

“It would’ve been interesting to see,” Ross said. “You have two of the most amazing attractions in the history of pro wrestling, so I’m sure it would have been a success financially. However, artistically? Maybe, not so much.

Austin never had the confidence that he and Hogan would have enough chemistry to live up to the hype”. “There’s always been the stories that Austin didn’t like Hogan, he didn’t want to work with Hogan, which is great for the internet gossip and chatter but I just think the styles clash was more than what Steve wanted to attempt.

I don’t think it had anything to do personally with Hogan”. Ross believes that the match would never live up to the hype. He also stated that Hulk has severe back issues at the time and he couldn’t have performed that well due to those issues.

“Steve’s issue was just that Steve had a very high pace. Intense, aggressive, somewhat snug, high pace,” Jim Ross said. “That just may not have fit Hogan’s styles at the time because of his back [issues].

It would’ve been an interesting attraction. It would’ve been a great poster, a great promo, it would’ve made money. But I don’t think the match had a chance in hell of living up to the hype of the two stars”.
