Everything Pro Wrestling

*Post anything to do with pro wrestling.




Hulk Hogan was an American professional wrestler, actor, television personality. He was widely regarded as the most recognized wrestling star worldwide and the most popular wrestler of the 1980s.

Hulk was born Terry Gene Bollea in Augusta, Georgia, the son of Ruth V. (Moody) and Peter Bollea, a construction foreman. His surname "Bollea" came from his Italian grandfather. He began his professional wrestling career in 1977, taking the name Hogan around that time, and gained worldwide recognition after signing for World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) in 1983.

There, his persona as a heroic all-American helped usher in the 1980s professional wrestling boom, where he headlined eight of the first nine editions of WWF's flagship annual event, WrestleMania. During his initial run, he won the WWF Championship five times, with his first reign being the second-longest in the championship's history. He was the first wrestler to win consecutive Royal Rumble matches, winning in 1990 and 1991. His match with André René Roussimoff on WWF The Main Event on February 5, 1988, still holds American television viewership records for wrestling with a 15.2 Nielsen rating and 33 million viewers.

In 1993, Hogan departed the WWF to sign for rival promotion World Championship Wrestling (WCW). He won the WCW World Heavyweight Championship six times, and holds the record for the longest reign. In 1996, he underwent a career renaissance upon adopting the villainous persona of "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan, leading the popular New World Order (NWO) stable. As a result, he became a major figure during the "Monday Night Wars", another boom of mainstream professional wrestling. He headlined WCW's annual flagship event Starrcade three times, including the most profitable WCW pay-per-view ever, Starrcade 1997.

Hogan returned to the WWF in 2002 following its acquisition of WCW the prior year, winning the Undisputed WWF Championship for a record equaling (for the year) sixth time before departing in 2003. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005, and inducted a second time in 2020 as a member of the NWO. Hogan also performed for the American Wrestling Association (AWA), New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) - where he won the original IWGP Heavyweight Championship - and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA - now known as Impact Wrestling).

Few Superstars were as dynamic as "Macho Man" Randy Savage. His style — perfectly punctuated by his entrance music, "Pomp and Circumstance" — was only outshined by his performances in the ring, which led him to two WWE Championships, four WCW World Championships and a 14-month reign as Intercontinental Champion. Born Randy Poffo, son of wrestling Legend Angelo Poffo, Macho Man almost chose Major League Baseball over World Wrestling Entertainment. Poffo was signed by the St. Louis Cardinals as a catcher after graduating high school. After years developing in the minor leagues, a collision at home plate caused an injury to his throwing arm, ending his baseball career.

Following in his father’s footsteps, Randy Poffo debuted as a wrestler in 1973 as a character named “The Spider” who looked like Spider-Man. This was prophetic, as Randy Savage later scored a role as wrestler “Bone Saw” McGraw in the 2002 motion picture, Spider-Man. It wasn’t until Georgia Championship Wrestling matchmaker Ole Anderson told Poffo that his name didn’t resemble his savage wrestling style that the name Randy Savage became known to fans.

Professional wrestling is not real, but on July 16, 1988 an altercation that started years before, in the ring, turned into a real-life killing in the backrooms of a Puerto Rico arena. The man who lost his life, stabbed to death in a shower, was one of the biggest stars in that era, one of the biggest stars of all-time in Japan and the man who WWE icon Mick Foley modelled his own style on.

That man was born Frank Goodish but went by the ring name Bruiser Brody, a larger than life wild man who swung a chain and was notoriously stiff with opponents in the ring. He was killed by Puerto Rican star Jose Huertas Gonzalez, who wrestled as 'Invader I', Gonzalez was later acquitted of the murder by reason of self defence in a trial that was botched on account of a lack of key witnesses not being subpoenaed.

Two of those witnesses are WWE Hall of Famers Dutch Mantel and Tony Atlas and in the Viceland documentary series The Dark Side of the Ring they recap that day and the role another WWE Hall of Famer and father of WWE talents Primo and Epico Colon also played.

The late Gorilla Monsoon often referred to King Kong Bundy as a "walking condominium" — an apt description for a giant who tipped the scales at an earth-shaking 458 pounds.

Stomping into WWE rings in 1984, the Atlantic City monster made an impact by destroying opponents with his Avalanche Splash and then demanding a five-count from the referee. The awesomeness of Bundy's power was fully displayed at 1985's inaugural WrestleMania, where the titan disposed of his opponent, Special Delivery Jones, in nine short seconds.

Perhaps the biggest match of Bundy's career occurred the following year at WrestleMania 2 when he battled Hulk Hogan in a Steel Cage Match for the WWE Championship. Hogan would win the contest, but Bundy's mammoth girth and devastating splashes came close to putting The Hulkster away for good.

LA Knight is a joke, so Reigns retains. 20 min snoozefest with family fuckery thrown in there.
Bronson Reed wins match 1, down the line loses match 2, 3 to Oba
Want Owens to win but most likely Punk wins it and for the last time in his career. Cash in at Mania will fail though, Punk retires some time next year.
Jacy wins.
