10 Masked wrestlers who weren't fooling anyone

The 'mysterious' Mr. America strikes a very familiar pose.

#2 Mr. America

Hulk Hogan was blatantly Mr. America, right down to the theme music.

After Hulk Hogan defeated Vince McMahon, the CEO decided to force the legendary performer to sit out the rest of his contract.

Hogan responded by donning the Mr. America identity. In spite of having Hogan's signature locks, theme song, and moves, the announce staff and WWE magazine tried to play it off as if he were a completely different person.

The gimmick was fun, but ended on a sour note. Hogan became frustrated with his contract and quit, so the WWE 'fired' him for pretending to be Mr. America.
