Hulk Hogan
Hulk Hogan held the World Wrestling Federation championship for 1,474 days during his first reign. That is the third-longest run in the history of the title. The man under the bandana and the blond moustache was born Terry Gene Bollea.
What turned a Florida musician into the figure who headlined the biggest shows in the business? Why did he keep leaving his home promotion and then returning? And what happens to a larger-than-life character when the man underneath is put on trial in public?
Augusta, Georgia, is where Terry Gene Bollea was born on the 11th of August 1953. His father, Pietro, known as Peter, worked as a construction foreman. His mother, Vernice, called Ruth, was a homemaker and dance teacher. The family moved to Port Tampa, Florida, when he was a year and a half old. His older brother Allan died of a drug overdose in 1986, at the age of 38. As a boy, Terry pitched in Little League Baseball, and he later attended Robinson High School.
At sixteen, Bollea started watching professional wrestling. While still in high school, he regularly went to cards at the Tampa Sportatorium. At one of them he noticed "Superstar" Billy Graham. He had wanted to match Graham's "inhuman" look since first seeing him on television.
For roughly a decade, Bollea played fretless bass guitar in rock bands around Florida. He studied at Hillsborough Community College and then at the University of South Florida. He left the university when music gigs began crowding out his classes. In 1976 he and two local musicians formed a band called Ruckus, which grew popular around Tampa Bay. Between shows he lifted weights at Hector's Gym. Wrestlers from the Florida circuit often visited the bars where Ruckus played, and Jack and Gerald Brisco were among them.
Hiro Matsuda trained the wrestlers of Championship Wrestling from Florida, and the Briscos steered Bollea toward him. In the very first session, Matsuda broke Bollea's leg. After ten weeks of rehab, Bollea came back. When Matsuda tried to break the leg a second time, Bollea blocked him.
Promoter Eddie Graham booked his debut against Brian Blair in Fort Myers, Florida, on the 10th of August 1977. Soon afterward, Bollea put on a mask as The Super Destroyer. Don Jardine had played the hooded character before him, and other wrestlers used it afterward.
In 1978 he wrestled in Alabama for Gulf Coast Championship Wrestling. There he teamed with Ed Leslie as the Boulder Brothers, billed as Terry and Ed Boulder. He also met André the Giant for the first time, in two matches and a televised arm-wrestling contest that stirred real local interest. On the 24th of May 1979, in Dothan, Alabama, he faced NWA World Heavyweight Champion Harley Race in his first world title match. Bollea pinned Race, and local television announced him as the new champion. The NWA later overturned the result and ruled it a disqualification.
Jerry Jarrett's Memphis-based Continental Wrestling Association is where Bollea and Leslie landed later in 1979. On a Memphis talk show, Bollea sat beside actor Lou Ferrigno, the star of the television series The Incredible Hulk. The host remarked that Bollea, at 6 ft 7 in and 295 pounds with 24-inch biceps, dwarfed the actor. Mary Jarrett suggested the nickname "The Hulk." He began wrestling as Terry "The Hulk" Boulder. He sometimes used the name Sterling Golden. The surname that would make the nickname famous was still to come, handed to him by a New York promoter.
Vince McMahon Sr., promoter of the World Wide Wrestling Federation, was impressed by Bollea's charisma and size. He offered him a place on the roster as an opponent for André the Giant. McMahon wanted an Irish name, so he gave the newcomer the surname Hogan and suggested he dye his hair red. Bollea's hair was already thinning, and he declined with a joke: "I'll be a blond Irishman."
How Hogan reached McMahon is disputed. His autobiography, My Life Outside the Ring, says he had briefly left wrestling in 1979. He was working on the Tampa docks, it says, when Gerald Brisco spotted him. Some wrestling historians credit Terry Funk instead, who recognized his potential in early matches. Funk had appeared in the 1978 Sylvester Stallone film Paradise Alley. He later recommended Hogan to Stallone for the part of Thunderlips in Rocky III.
On a November 17 episode of Championship Wrestling, Hulk Hogan won his first WWWF match, beating Harry Valdez. He was cast as a villain and managed by "Classy" Freddie Blassie. On the 9th of August 1980, at Showdown at Shea, André defeated Hogan. Hogan still managed to body-slam the giant, an early version of the moment later made famous at WrestleMania III. He did it again on the 30th of August 1980 at Madison Square Garden, in a televised match with Gorilla Monsoon as special referee. André won that one too.
On the 13th of May 1980, Hogan made his debut for New Japan Pro-Wrestling while still under contract to the WWF. In Japan he wrestled a more technical style than the power game he played at home. His finisher there was the Axe Bomber, a crooked arm lariat, rather than the running leg drop. On the 2nd of June 1983, he knocked out Antonio Inoki to win the first International Wrestling Grand Prix tournament. That made him the first holder of the original IWGP Heavyweight Championship. He also teamed with Inoki to win the MSG Tag League in 1982 and 1983. In 1984 he lost the title back to Inoki by countout, after interference from Riki Choshu.
Accepting a part in Rocky III got Hogan released by Vincent J. McMahon. In August 1981 he joined the American Wrestling Association, owned by Verne Gagne. He debuted as a villain under the manager "Luscious" Johnny Valiant, but crowds warmed to him quickly. His official turn to hero came in a televised segment where he saved Brad Rheingans from an attack by Jerry Blackwell. On the 15th of June 1982, he used the word "Hulkamania" on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. After Rocky III, the word spread widely. It was in the AWA that he first announced "Hulkamania is running wild."
Verne Gagne would not make Hogan his champion. Gagne preferred technical mat wrestling and wanted the AWA built around one of its best technical wrestlers, not a flamboyant, muscle-bound showman. At Super Sunday on the 24th of April 1983, Gagne agreed to a title win. His price was the majority of Hogan's merchandise money and New Japan earnings. Hogan offered an even split. Gagne refused. Hogan pinned Nick Bockwinkel that night, but the decision was reversed.
Late in 1983, Vince McMahon Jr. secretly visited Hogan in Minneapolis and offered him a leading role in the WWF. Hogan accepted and left the AWA abruptly in November, reportedly by sending a telegram. Gagne first took it for a prank, until Hogan simply stopped showing up for AWA events.
In St. Louis, Missouri, on the 27th of December 1983, Hogan returned to the WWF and beat Bill Dixon at a television taping. McMahon had bought the company from his father in 1982 and planned to take it national. He chose Hogan as its top star for his charisma and wide recognition.
On the 23rd of January 1984, at Madison Square Garden, Hogan beat The Iron Sheik for his first WWF World Heavyweight Championship. He became the first wrestler to escape the Sheik's finishing move, the camel clutch. Commentator Gorilla Monsoon declared, "Hulkamania is here!"
Fans became "Hulkamaniacs," and Hogan preached three "demandments": training, saying prayers and eating vitamins. A fourth, "believing in yourself," was added during his 1990 feud with Earthquake. His ring gear settled into red and yellow, and his entrances featured shirt-tearing, posing and urging the crowd to cheer. His matches followed a formula. An opponent would appear to beat him down, and then Hogan would "Hulk up" on the crowd's energy. The finish was a fixed run of finger-pointing, punches, an Irish whip, the big boot and the running leg drop.
The first WrestleMania, on the 31st of March 1985, featured Hogan teaming with actor and wrestler Mr. T against "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff. Around then, McMahon pushed wrestling into pop culture through the Rock 'n' Wrestling Connection on MTV. Attendance, television ratings and pay-per-view buys all climbed. Hogan headlined eight of the first nine WrestleManias.
At WrestleMania III in 1987, André the Giant was promoted as undefeated for 15 years. He had turned villain by teaming with manager Bobby Heenan. Hogan won by body-slamming him and finishing with a leg drop. In February 1988, on The Main Event I, André took the title through a setup involving Ted DiBiase. Referee Earl Hebner had replaced his twin brother, the assigned official. André handed the belt to DiBiase, and WWF President Jack Tunney declared it vacant.
Randy Savage won the tournament that followed, and he and Hogan formed The Mega Powers. The storyline turned on jealousy, as Savage began suspecting romantic tension between Hogan and Savage's wife and manager, Miss Elizabeth. The partnership broke apart at The Main Event II, and Hogan beat Savage at WrestleMania V for his second WWF World Heavyweight Championship.
Hogan's first meeting with the Ultimate Warrior came in the 1990 Royal Rumble, which Hogan won. At WrestleMania VI he lost his championship to Warrior in a title versus title match. He won the 1991 Rumble as well, becoming the first wrestler to take two in a row. After beating Sgt. Slaughter at WrestleMania VII, he lost the title to The Undertaker at Survivor Series. Six days later, at This Tuesday in Texas, he won it back by throwing ashes from Undertaker's urn into his face.
At WrestleMania IX in 1993, Hogan won his fifth WWF title by pinning Yokozuna moments after Yokozuna had beaten Bret Hart for it. Hogan reportedly used his influence to change the finish that weekend. WWF official Bruce Prichard has said the move was meant to help sell tickets for a European tour. On the 13th of June, at the first King of the Ring, Hogan lost the title to Yokozuna. Harvey Wippleman, disguised as a "Japanese photographer," had blinded him with a fireball. It was Hogan's last WWF pay-per-view appearance until 2002.
A ceremony at Disney-MGM Studios on the 11th of June 1994 made Hogan an official member of World Championship Wrestling. He was filming his series Thunder in Paradise there, and Disney was his main business partner on it. Years later, Bruce Prichard said Hogan chose WCW on his own terms, drawn by money that owner Ted Turner could easily pay. Prichard added that McMahon "made excuses" for him.
The next month, at Bash at the Beach, Hogan beat Ric Flair for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. His arrival brought mainstream attention, higher pay-per-view sales and new sponsors. In September 1995 he headlined the first episode of WCW Monday Nitro, which opened the Monday Night Wars against the WWF. He also reunited with Randy Savage to re-form the Mega Powers.
His 469-day reign, the longest in the title's history, ended at Halloween Havoc with a disqualification loss to The Giant. Jimmy Hart turned on him that night and joined the Dungeon of Doom. A November 8 episode of Nitro revealed that Hart had secretly inserted a contract clause allowing the title to change hands that way. The controversy led to the title being vacated.
At Bash at the Beach 1996, Hogan turned villain for the first time in nearly fifteen years. He attacked Randy Savage, joined Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, known as The Outsiders, and announced the New World Order. As "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan, in black and white, he dominated WCW. He won his second title at Hog Wild on the 10th of August 1996 by beating The Giant. The nWo revitalized his career and fed the Monday Night War boom of the late 1990s.
At Starrcade on the 28th of December 1997, Sting beat Hogan for the championship in a controversial finish. Soon the nWo split into "nWo Hollywood," led by Hogan, and "nWo Wolfpac," led by Nash. On the 20th of April 1998, Hogan beat Savage to win his fourth WCW title. He lost it to the undefeated Bill Goldberg on the 6th of July 1998.
In late 1998, Hogan announced a presidential run and his retirement. Both were later revealed as publicity stunts inspired by Jesse Ventura's recent win in the Minnesota governor's race. Hogan returned in January 1999 for the "Fingerpoke of Doom." He reclaimed the championship from Nash with a simple poke to Nash's chest. The incident is widely seen as a key factor in WCW's decline in ratings and popularity.
Hogan won his sixth and final WCW World Heavyweight Championship on the 12th of July 1999, beating Savage. That August he went back to red and yellow gear. He lost the title to Sting at Fall Brawl. At the rematch at Halloween Havoc, he walked out in street clothes, lay down for the pin and left the ring. Head booker Vince Russo then convinced him to take time off.
On the 9th of July 2000, Bash at the Beach turned into a dispute. Hogan and Russo had quarreled backstage before Hogan's scheduled title challenge against Jeff Jarrett. The ending was changed so that Jarrett lay down, and Hogan, after winning, disparaged Russo and the company on the microphone. Russo came to the ring and revealed Hogan's creative control clause. Hogan filed a defamation lawsuit, which was dismissed in 2002. Russo says the whole thing was a work. WCW President Eric Bischoff sided with Hogan, saying Russo's appearance was unplanned. It was Hogan's final WCW appearance, and in March 2001 he had knee surgery to prepare for a return to the WWF.
At No Way Out on the 17th of February 2002, Hogan returned to the WWF as a villain. He reunited with Scott Hall and Kevin Nash as the original nWo. They attacked The Rock and cost Stone Cold Steve Austin a shot at the Undisputed WWF Championship. Hogan met The Rock at WrestleMania X8 on the 17th of March. Although he entered as a villain, the crowd cheered him heavily. After losing, he shook The Rock's hand and turned hero.
At Backlash on the 21st of April 2002, Hogan beat Triple H to win the Undisputed WWF Championship. He was the last WWF Champion before the company was renamed WWE in May. The Undertaker took the title from him at Judgment Day. On the 23rd of June, Kurt Angle beat him by submission at King of the Ring. It was the first time Hogan had lost that way in WWE.
At WrestleMania XIX on the 30th of March 2003, Hogan beat Vince McMahon in a street fight billed as "20 years in the making." Afterward he took on a masked identity, Mr. America, after McMahon tried to push him out. Hogan quit WWE in July 2003, unhappy with the creative direction and with the payoffs for his matches. McMahon still "fired" him on screen.
On the 2nd of April 2005, Sylvester Stallone inducted Hogan into the WWE Hall of Fame. In July 2005, VH1 premiered Hogan Knows Best, a reality show about Hogan, his then-wife Linda and their children Brooke and Nick. His last WWE match came when he beat Randy Orton at SummerSlam.
Total Nonstop Action Wrestling announced on the 27th of October 2009 that it had signed him. He debuted on Impact! on the 4th of January 2010 in an executive role alongside Eric Bischoff. At Bound for Glory on the 10th of October 2010, he turned villain and formed Immortal. On the 16th of October 2011, he lost to Sting in a match that returned control of TNA to Dixie Carter. His last matches came on a United Kingdom tour on the 26th and the 27th of January 2012, in Nottingham and Manchester. He left TNA in October 2013 when his contract expired.
In early 2014 Hogan returned to WWE to promote the WWE Network, and he hosted WrestleMania XXX. WWE held a "Hulk Hogan Appreciation Night" at Madison Square Garden on the 27th of February 2015 and hung a commemorative banner from the rafters. In 2020, Hogan was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame again, this time as part of the nWo.
On screen, No Holds Barred in 1989 followed Rocky III, and then came the family films Suburban Commando in 1991 and Mr. Nanny in 1993. In 2008 he hosted the comeback of American Gladiators on NBC.
Hogan fronted the Wrestling Boot Band, whose record Hulk Rules reached number 12 on the Billboard Top Kid Audio chart in 1995 despite negative reviews. The Wrestling Figure Checklist counts 171 different Hogan action figures made between the 1980s and the 2010s.
Pastamania, a restaurant Hogan created and financed in the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota, opened on Labor Day weekend of 1995. It was heavily promoted on Monday Nitro and lasted less than a year. Later products included a blender, a grill recalled in 2008 as a fire hazard and a line of microwavable burgers called Hulkster Burgers. In 2017 he opened a memorabilia store in Orlando. A second store opened in New York City in 2024, and a third in Pigeon Forge in 2025, shortly before his death.
In 1984, Titan Sports, Marvel Comics and Hogan signed an agreement giving Marvel the trademarks to "Hulk Hogan," "Hulkster" and "Hulkamania" for 20 years. The WWF could no longer call him "The Incredible Hulk" or "Hulk," or use purple and green in his presentation. Marvel received 0.9% of Hogan-related merchandise revenue, $100 per match and 10% of his other earnings under the name. A 1988 story in Marvel Comics Presents #45 showed a wrestler resembling Hogan thrown through an arena roof by the Incredible Hulk. The Hulk said Hogan had "picked the wrong name."
On the 27th of March 1985, Richard Belzer asked Hogan on his cable show Hot Properties to demonstrate a signature move. Hogan applied a modified guillotine choke, and Belzer passed out. Belzer hit his head on the floor, suffered a scalp laceration and spent a short time in hospital. He sued for $5 million and settled out of court. A claim made in 2006 put the settlement at $5 million, split between Hogan and Vince McMahon, but Belzer said it was closer to $400,000.
On The Arsenio Hall Show in 1991, Hogan said, "I am not a steroid abuser and I do not use steroids." That year, fellow wrestler Billy Graham said on Inside Edition that he had injected Hogan with steroids in the 1980s. Reports surfaced that George Zahorian, a doctor for the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission, had illegally sold steroids to WWF wrestlers, including Hogan. In 1994, with legal immunity, Hogan testified at the trial of Vince McMahon. He admitted using anabolic steroids since 1976, but said McMahon had neither sold nor ordered them. His testimony badly hurt the government's case, and McMahon was found not guilty.
Under questioning, Hogan also said he and King Kong Bundy had warned McMahon about Jesse Ventura's 1986 effort to unionize wrestlers. Hogan later said, "Vince already knew about it, I just said I didn't think it was a good idea." The admission drew criticism, and no wrestlers' union has ever been established.
The Independent called Hogan "a great believer in self-mythologising." He once claimed that Elvis Presley was a big fan, though Hogan had been wrestling less than a week when Presley died. In 2009 he said the Rolling Stones and Metallica both wanted him to play bass, and James Hetfield and Mick Jagger denied it. In 2010 he said he had turned down the lead in The Wrestler, and director Darren Aronofsky said he never considered Hogan.
In 2012, Gawker released a short clip from a sex tape of Hogan and Heather Clem. She was then the estranged wife of radio host Bubba the Love Sponge. Hogan said the tape was made without his knowledge or consent. He sued the couple for invasion of privacy on the 15th of October 2012, and Bubba settled and apologized. Hogan also sued Gawker for $100 million, in a case financed by Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel. After a 2016 trial he was awarded $115 million. In November 2016, Gawker reached a $31 million settlement with him.
In July 2015, the National Enquirer and Radar Online published portions of a 2007 recording. In it, Hogan went on an anti-black rant and repeated a racial slur. On the tape, he also called himself "a racist, to a point." Hogan apologized, calling the remarks "language that is offensive and inconsistent with his own beliefs." On the 24th of July, WWE ended its relationship with him, though his lawyer said Hogan chose to resign. WWE removed almost all references to him from its website and shop, and Mattel halted production of his action figures. Retailers including Target, Toys "R" Us and Walmart pulled his merchandise from their online stores.
On the 31st of August, Hogan told Good Morning America he was pleading for forgiveness and blamed a racial bias inherited from his old neighborhood. Former neighbors disputed his account. Wrestlers reacted in different ways. Virgil, Dennis Rodman and Kamala spoke well of their experiences with him. Mark Henry said he was hurt and offended by Hogan's manner and tone.
Hogan returned to WWE in 2018 and apologized backstage. Several Black wrestlers, among them The New Day and Titus O'Neil, doubted his sincerity. On the 15th of July 2018, he was reinstated in the WWE Hall of Fame. McMahon said of him, "I knew he wasn't racist.... He said some racist things. He should pay for that, and he did."
On the 6th of January 2025, Hogan made his final appearance at a wrestling event, on the Netflix debut of Raw. With Jimmy Hart beside him, he cut a promo for Real American Beer, a light beer brand he had launched in 2024. The crowd booed him heavily, and the reaction drew widespread coverage. In April 2025 he co-founded Real American Freestyle and served as its commissioner.
Hogan also had a public political life. He endorsed Barack Obama in 2008. In 2011 he withdrew the endorsement, after Obama used Hogan's "Real American" theme song without permission at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. He endorsed Mitt Romney in 2012. At the 2024 Republican National Convention, he formally endorsed Donald Trump.
His body paid for the ring. Hogan underwent at least 25 medical procedures, including back surgeries and knee and hip replacements. He had a spinal fusion in December 2010, which let him return to his professional activities. In January 2013 he sued the Laser Spine Institute for $50 million, saying it had talked him into six unnecessary spinal operations over 19 months. The institute shut down in 2019.
On the 14th of May 2025, Hogan underwent a four-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. During the operation, the phrenic nerve, which helps the diaphragm move air in and out of the lungs, was severed. Jimmy Hart and Eric Bischoff noticed a rapid decline afterward. Hart said Hogan avoided visitors to prevent infection. On the 18th of June, Bubba the Love Sponge reported that Hogan was seriously ill and "might not make it."
Hogan died on the morning of the 24th of July 2025 at his home in Clearwater, Florida, at the age of 71. He collapsed during therapy and was taken to Morton Plant Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11:17 am. The official cause was acute myocardial infarction. His medical records showed he also had chronic lymphocytic leukemia and atrial fibrillation.
His family life had fractured before then. Hogan married Linda Claridge in 1983, and they had two children, Brooke and Nick. Linda filed for divorce in November 2007. He married Jennifer McDaniel in 2010, divorced in 2021, and married yoga instructor Sky Daily on the 22nd of September 2023. Two grandchildren were born through Brooke in January 2025, but because of the estrangement he had not met them when he died. Hogan said he was "saved" at fourteen and that he had "leaned on" his Christian faith throughout his life.
A funeral service was held on the 5th of August 2025 at Indian Rocks Baptist Church in Largo, Florida. Attendees included Jimmy Hart, Eric Bischoff, Sting, Ric Flair, Vince McMahon, Triple H, Dennis Rodman, Kid Rock and Brutus Beefcake. Brooke did not attend. Nick Hogan was named the sole heir and took over as commissioner of Real American Freestyle.
Wrestling historian Dave Meltzer said, "You can't possibly overrate his significance in the history of the business." He added that Hogan "sold more tickets to wrestling shows than any man who ever lived." Hogan himself once ranked Ric Flair above him, though Chris Jericho argued Hogan was the better worker. Cody Rhodes has called Hogan's WrestleMania X8 match with The Rock the greatest in wrestling history. In 2026, WWE inducted Hogan's WrestleMania III match with André the Giant into its Hall of Fame Immortal Moments category.
