December 31, 201113 yr Author comment_5491371 Hogan is getting booed LOUDLY by this Chicago crowd, and that's before he debuts his new look in all black. I guess this a kinda, sorta proto-Hollywood run. He does this weird shoot about how the wrestling promoter he built Hulkamania with is dying and choking on his own ego. This is a really self-indulgent promo. Outside, The Giant is trying to get in the building with a monster truck and is surrounded by police.

December 30, 201212 yr comment_5524530 He was a huge jerk at the beginning telling Gene and his "friend" Jimmy Hart to shut up.
November 11, 201311 yr comment_5572069 The crowd shits on Hogan hard here. Loud "Hogan sucks" chant during the first match too. I wonder if they were actually testing waters for an eventual heel-turn down the road, as Hogan is an even bigger jerk here than he usually is.

November 16, 201410 yr comment_5640073 Ah, the debut of the Darkest Timeline Hulk. A frosty reception for Hogan, but it's the first time he's actually sold or shown vulnerability in his entire WCW stint, so points for that, I guess. Hogan tells Okerlund and Hart to keep their mouths shut--oh, what a mature response from our hero. Hogan promises to rip his neck brace off and beat the Giant just like he beat his "father." Okerlund breaks the news that a restraining order has banned the Giant from the Rosemont Horizon. Hulk accuses a certain New York promoter's ego of getting "bigger than the wrestling business" and is "dying, choking on his own ego"--oh, the irony. Shaving the Hulk's moustache = spraypainting the Washington Monument or burning the American flag, brother. Cut to the Giant trying to barge into the arena with the monster truck. Zodiac sticking out of the top of the truck is a funny visual. This is where the one weakness of the Nitro set comes into play--no video wall. Hulk takes off for outside.
July 13Jul 13 comment_6032508 The Hulkster comparing the shaving of his Fu Manchu to tagging the Washington Monument or burning the American Flag popped me and my wife. The whole Vince McMahon bit and saying he was going to Heaven to beat Gorgeous George were ludicrous. He was getting booed big time in Chicago most heat he had gotten by far. Dark Side Hogan was interesting experiment to give him some edge closer to a Stone Cold than Hollywood. I am glad we got Hollywood Hogan.
