4) Bret Hart
Bret Hart has never been a big fan of Hulk Hogan. There have been rumors for years that Hulk refused to put over a young Bret Hart for the title and it seems like the Hitman never forgot.
In a shoot interview a few years back, Hart said that Hogan only knew how to make Hogan look good:
“The only thing Hulk Hogan ever knew was how to make Hulk Hogan. He couldn’t tell you how to make AJ Styles or Samoa Joe. What’s Hulk Hogan going to tell Samoa Joe? He doesn’t know anything to even tell him, he’s got zero to offer”
In a Periscope Q&A with TSN, Hart was asked about Hulk Hogan’s racist rant that leaked a few weeks prior. Hart did NOT hold back when asked if he ever thinks Hulk would return to WWE:
“Let’s hope not. Let’s really hope that he lives with himself in Tampa and stays there in his little world in idol worship of himself. I’m not a big Hulk Hogan fan”
He was also asked straight up if he liked Hulk:
“Do I like Hulk Hogan? No I don’t. I think he’s a phony piece of sh*t.”
Case closed.
Verdict – Hates him.
3) Honky Tonk Man
The Honky Tonk Man befriended a young Hulk Hogan when he first broke into the professional wrestling business in the late 70’s early 80’s.
It appears as if the relationship between Hogan and the Honky Tonk Man soured throughout the years as Hogan became a big star.
In a Facebook post, the Honky Tonk Man explained some of his dislike for Hogan.
“You guys keep asking what’s the issue with Hogan. Here’s the deal. Hogan is in a back brace and without it he is on a walker as an old crippled dogs***of a man who could only be found with his feet in Lard Ass Bubba’s ass. You ask why HTM doesn’t like Hogan?
Jeff Jarrett approached HTM for a TNA merchandise deal in 2010 and “sent” a contract. Contract never came. HTM signs with WWE & Mattel. The same time, Hogan and Bischoff join TNA and Bischoff publicly insults HTM. HTM is called up for the “Hogan & Friends Tour”, went to the show and had a great event with the boys and the fans– HTM and Jimmy Hart spend hours setting up the show, spots etc– HTM and his web team promote “Hulk and Friends” everywhere which Hogan’s agent praised and admitted none of the other stars did! Bubba the lard sponge calls out HTM on his radio show so HTM posted a video owning Bubba in retaliation. Hogan goes off without seeing the facts and HTM is off the tour.
HTM went to Hogan’s room on the Hogan & Friends tour and spent hours talking to Hogan. Hogan was nice to HTM’s face. That’s the deal with Hogan. That’s always the deal with Hulk Hogan. Ask Vince McMahon or Randy Savage. Hogan is a walking dead because he went with that travelling door to door meat salesman Bischoff instead of hanging with the guys who stood beside him and once again turned on WWE. McMahon’s done with Hogan and WWE have no interest in his dead ass. They put over Hogan, built him up as Babe Ruth and he spat in their face. Hogan was due to wrestle John Cena at a recent past WrestleMania but couldn’t commit due to his health issues then announces at Vince’s backyard MSG that he’s signed with TNA. Now after taking TNA nowhere Hogan’s had to take a pay cut with TNA and mark my words within 6 months he’ll be gone.”
He has also had some unfavorable words towards Hogan in various shoot interviews.
Verdict – Probably still hates him.
