5 Weirdest things WWE Superstars did in character outside the ring

#2 The Wild Samoans and Hulk Hogan go to jail

Talk about protecting kayfabe

In his autobiography, Hulk Hogan details a story in which he was pulled over while travelling with The Wild Samoans, Afa and Sika.

According to Hogan's account, when he reached into his glove compartment to get his registration, an unregistered gun he had recently bought in Florida fell out in plain view of the police officer. Hogan, who was unaware of New Jersey's firearm possession laws, was hoping the Samoans would help him out and explain that to the cop.

But at the time, the Samoans' wrestling personas did not speak, so in an attempt to protect their gimmick, neither Samoan uttered a word in defence of Hogan. That resulted in "The Hulkster," and the Samoans themselves, being arrested when perhaps all it would have taken was a brief explanation to avoid the whole thing.
