There’s no doubting the fact that Hulk Hogan is the most popular superstar of all time, in the wrestling business. Through the late 80s and the early 90s, Hulk Hogan would reign supreme and be the top guy for the company. However, in 1993, he would start getting involved in Hollywood films and be on his way out of the wrestling business. Yokozuna, Mr. Fuji, and Harvey Wippleman would work as a unit and destroy Hulkamania for good at King of the Ring 1993.
This major loss for Hulk Hogan would be his final PPV in the company, until his return in 2002. Of course, he’d work in WCW but Hulkamania as we knew it, was over for good.
