Hulk Hogan is widely viewed as one of the greatest superstars in WWE history. In an exclusive interview, The Hulkster gave his take on how the company's higher-ups should present Bron Breakker.

After joining the main roster in February, Breakker made an instant impact by winning five consecutive singles matches in under two minutes. This month, however, all four of his in-ring battles on RAW have lasted at least eight minutes.

Hogan spoke to Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter about whether Breakker needs to record "quick-kill" squash wins over his opponents. According to the two-time WWE Hall of Famer, the RAW star possesses enough talent to compete in lengthy matches:

"I think he's beyond that quick-kill protection mode," Hogan said. "I think he can go, from what I see. He's been broken in the correct way. It's like when you're a racecar driver, you need enough seat time to be able to handle every situation that comes up and the ones you're not expecting. He's had a lot of seat time already. It looks like he's put a little bit of time in, so he's ready to go. I just hope that as he's moving forward he learns and picks up more wisdom." [2:39 – 3:07]

Hulk Hogan on Bron Breakker's ability to draw money

In the 1980s and early 1990s, Hulk Hogan was presented as WWE's star attraction. He also helped WCW beat WWE in the television ratings in the mid-to-late 1990s.

In time, Hogan hopes Bron Breakker learns how to connect with fans and draw money in WWE:

"Some guys are in this business 15, 20 years, they think they're smart, they're main-event guys, and they never figure it out. I've got several friends now that aren't my age but they're 15, 20 years younger than me and they came a generation after me and they were in the WWE, and when they're done with the WWE and they had their whole wrestling career and they made a living, they did a great job, but they never really figured it out. So, I hope that Bron Breakker figures it out because if he does, man, he's gonna be hard to deal with as far as drawing money." [3:08 – 3:41]

Breakker will challenge Sami Zayn for the Intercontinental Championship at Money in the Bank on July 6.
