I was never a big Hulkamania guy...

But I do remember renting the VHS of Wrestlemania 3 when I was about seven and being blown away by the spectacle. Hollywood Hogan...that was my dude, though. 1996-98, when it was peak "Hollywood" and the NWO, made for some fantastic Monday nights. And the pop he got on Raw the night after WM18 was insane. Maybe his best entrance ever. But that guy made wrestling the spectacle that it is today. No doubt about it. RIP.

He ripped off his entire shtick from Superstar Billy Graham. Fraud.**

And Graham took from Ali, who took from Gorgeous George.
