Several castings on NBC's Young Rock have been heavily criticized by fans so far. In the past, fans have bashed the TV show for its casting of The Undertaker, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and many others.

However, castings for the iconic Cyndi Lauper and former WWE Champion The Iron Sheik have received massive praise from fans. One wonders what Hulk Hogan would think of his casting on Young Rock.

Here's what ‘Young Rock’ co-showrunner Nahnatchka Khan said about the TV show:

“He’s one of those famous people on the planet. Even if you don’t really know that much about Dwayne Johnson, a lot of people have a cursory passing knowledge of who he is and what he’s done. But there’s so much that people don’t know about how he got to where he is. I think that’s what we’re interested in exploring … the surprising moments and the times where it was really tough for him and his family.” [H/T Deadline]

Hogan is regarded by many as possibly the greatest WWE Superstar of all time. He is a former WWE Champion, has headlined multiple WrestleMania events, and was insanely popular during the 80s and the 90s.

Fans of Hulk Hogan would love to see how he is portrayed on Young Rock across its three seasons so far.
