5 audacious claims made by Hulk Hogan

Whatcha gonna say ‘Brother’?

1). Hulk Hogan on breaking his back while body slamming Andre the Giant

The icing on the cake has to go to the lie Hogan has carried for over two decades. No matter when or where you ask Hogan, his stories eventually will lead to that famous night at WrestleMania 3 inside the Pontiac Silverdome, when Hogan and Andre main evented for the coveted WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

While Andre reportedly weighed in at 450 pounds, he was billed to be around 520 – 550 pounds (depending how big WWE wanted him to look), but Hogan will swear on his life, saying he weighed anywhere between 600 – 650 pounds. During the closing sequence at WrestleMania 3, Hogan body slammed Andre, and has maintained that he tore every muscle in his back.

What’s more? Hogan also claimed that while he tore his back, he never missed a single day of work. Isn’t that something we can all relate with?
