3). Hulk Hogan on breaking his ribs at WrestleMania 18
Trending
Hogan is often known to either build up the severity of the situation, or completely make up his own version of truth. From wrestling 400 days a year to saying Mike Tyson was afraid of him, Hulk Hogan constructed quite a few head scratching lies during his time. One of such instances came during WrestleMania X8, when Hogan took on The Rock in a once – in – a – lifetime encounter, as both the icons went head to head at the grandest stage.
Hogan later claimed that it was while receiving The Rock’s “Rock Bottom” that he suffered broken ribs. Hogan was seen holding his ribs after the match, which wasn’t very suspicious considering wrestlers often “sell” their opponent’s move. However, Hogan would later go on Bill Simmons’ podcast, and told him that he broke his ribs during a house show while wrestling Rikishi even before WrestleMania X8. Leave it up to Hogan to play up a simple injury.
