5 Times stars took real-life shots at Hulk Hogan

#3 Sycho Sid took a shot at Hulk Hogan

Sycho Sid, also known as Sid Justice and Sid Vicious, does not have fond memories of his aforementioned WrestleMania VIII main event against Hulk Hogan.

The finish to the match saw Sid’s manager, Harvey Wippleman, attack Hogan to cause a disqualification. The match was originally supposed to end immediately after Papa Shango’s interference, but a backstage timing error forced Hogan and Sid to slightly alter the finish.

Speaking on the Highspots Wrestling Network in May 2021, Sid claimed Hogan was “horrible” to work with:

Sid added that he got involved in wrestling for the money and not because he loved the business. For that reason, facing a megastar like Hulk Hogan in the main event of WWE’s biggest show of the year meant little to him.

The two-time WrestleMania main-eventer also admitted that he never watched wrestling or read wrestling magazines. He treated every match the same way, whether he was performing at a live event or on the grand WrestleMania stage.
