This was possibly the moment that cemented the fact that the Toronto crowd is one of the most unexpected bunch of fans in the world. WrestleMania 18 saw The Rock take on Hollywood Hogan in a legit dream match that the fans never thought they would ever see. Hogan was as big a heel as anyone could be at that point and was still donning the black & white nWo gear.

The Toronto fans didn't have a problem with it though, as they welcomed Hogan with a loud sea of cheers as he made his entrance. Hogan was visibly surprised to see the reaction of the fans. The crowd cheered for him throughout the match and even booed The Rock on several occasions, despite him being a traditional babyface. The boos were brought up by The Rock the next year on the road to WrestleMania 19 when he turned heel.
