20 Greatest WWE Wrestlers Of All Time

#12 Hulk Hogan

Hulkamania is still running wild

Widely regarded as one of the most popular professional wrestling superstars of all time, Hulk Hogan is everything that catapulted WWE's position in the 80's.

Being a regular main-event superstar, the Hulkster participated in various renowned promotions, such as WWF/WWE, WCW, and TNA.

Having been the face of the WWF for almost ten years, Hulk Hogan went on to headline WWE's flagship show WrestleMania for a record eight times.

He is the only superstar in WWE history to have closed the Show of Shows for a consecutive five times, and his contribution to elevating the position of WWE can never be denied.

While the former WWF Champion was a popular mainstream babyface, his incredible characterization as a heel, running NWO was bloody incredible.

His villainous stable with Kevin Nash and Scott Hall was perhaps one of the greatest stables to be made in professional wrestling.

Taking that time into account, wrestling was more about the personality rather than relatability, and Hulkster was a hero to legions of professional wrestling fans.

The 64-year old legend had a pretty strong comeback when he returned to the squared circle. The Superstar had incredible feuds throughout his career, with Ultimate Warrior, Ric Flair, Randy Savage, Shawn Michaels, The Rock, and Andre the Giant.

His fantastic moment with Andre the Giant is widely regarded as one of the most iconic moments in professional wrestling history.

His accomplishments speak for themselves, as the popular NWO leader has 12 World Championships under his belt, and was the first wrestler to have won two consecutive Royal Rumble matches in 1990 and 1991.

His blockbuster match with the Rock at WrestleMania 18 still remains one of his best Mania outings of all time, and both the icons delivered a match to remember.

While Hulk Hogan has had his share of problems in the public world, which led WWE to be professional and remove his acknowledgements from the squared circle.

He has, however, been reinstated back to the company, and remains a proud recipient of the Hall of Fame, which he received in 2005.

There are many die-hard wrestling fans who do feel that Hulk Hogan may not fit in the world of wrestling today, but his contribution to this industry remains unforgettable.
