About Hulk Hogan
Terry Gene Bollea, better known by his ring name Hulk Hogan, is an American professional wrestler, actor, television personality, and musician currently signed to Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). He is regarded by some as the greatest professional wrestler of all time. Bollea who is of French, Italian and Panamanian herritage is the son of Peter Bollea, a construction foreman, and his wife Ruth, a homemaker and dance teacher, Hogan was raised in Tampa, Florida. As a boy, he was a pitcher in Little League Baseball. He began watching professional wrestling at 16 years old. What many people who know about Hogan don't know is he was in the "sport" for several years in virtual obscurity before hitting the big time. Hogan made his pro debut in 1978 and wrestled as "Sterling Golden" before becoming "Hulk."Hogan was getting main event matches while wrestling in the American Wrestling Alliance (AWA) in the
early 1980s before he was cast as Thunderlips in Rocky III (1982). That bitof casting propelled Hogan into the spotlight and he was soon to enter the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in 1983. Hogan was also a skilled musician, spending ten years playing bass guitar in several Florida-based rock bands.
He is a 12-time world heavyweight champion being a six-time WWF/E Champion and a six-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion, as well as a former WWE World Tag Team Champion with Edge. He was also the winner of the Royal Rumble in 1990 and 1991 and the first to win two Royal Rumbles in a row. In his first reign as WCW World Heavyweight Champion, Hogan held the title for 469 days from July 17, 1994 to October 29, 1995. It is the longest reign of all time for this championship.
