WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan
Hulk Hogan was WWE's alpha male in 1980s and early 1990s. The Hulkster left WWE in late 1993 and joined its rival WCW the following year. However, he returned to Vince McMahon's company in 2002 after the fall of WCW. His return saw him continue his successful runs.

Throughout his WWE career, Hogan won the WWE Championship six times and the Tag Team Titles once. He also won the World Heavyweight Championship six times in WCW.
Despite wrestling for decades, Hulk Hogan never won the Intercontinental Championship, the United States Championship, the European Title, or the Hardcore Title. That prevented him from becoming a Grand Slam Champion.
The 68-year-old has not competed in a WWE ring since 2006. His last match came against Randy Orton at the 2006 SummerSlam, in which he came out victorious. He had his last match nine years ago and has not competed since.
Hogan was recently inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame for the second time as part of the NWO. Considering his age, it is unlikely that he will ever become a Grand Slam Champion in WWE.
