That crowd was unhinged during that match. It was like witnessing a Stone Cold Steve Austin entrance pop but never ending, dipping and peaking with the action in the ring. When Hogan hits his finisher, everything comes together. The crowd, JR on commentary calling back to Hogan defeating Andre the Giant, even the ref pulling off one of the closest 2.9 counts, that moment was magic and intense unlike anything you'd ever see.

I have never been into wrestling and always thought it was kind of silly but I have to say listening to Hogan talk about it and the crazy history of it makes me interested to learn more about the history. Side note, I live in Tampa and 20 years ago I was in the military and was on leave. My father dropped me off at the airport to head back to my base after my leave because I was about to go on deployment for 6 months. I was feeling down and nervous. As I got out off the escalator in the airport I just happened to see Hulk Hogan. He was unmistakable. He was walking through the airport and happened to look over and see me in my uniform and came over just to shake my hand and thank me for my service. It really made my day. I was never a wrestling fan but since that day I’ve been a big Hulk Hogan fan.

And Hogan was a master at doing exactly what he needed, without injuring himself or his opponent. People blame him for lazy brawling in his peak years, but that was what the WWF crowd wanted - when he was in the AWA, Japan, or a WWF/WCW match that needed it, he could do chain wrestling etc. I have never been a Hogan fan, either in the ring or out of it, but I admire his talent. Thanks to ECW, risky, career-shortening moves have gone from being a way that little guys could use to stand out to being something expected of wrestlers, leading to them burning out so quickly. Yet crowds are numb from it all...

Soon as the fans started cheering for him, I remember having the biggest smile on my face during the entire match hearing and watching the fans. I remember damn near tearing up when he dropped the Leg Drop on the Rock. Just seeing a character who had so much to do with your childhood be greeted like that after being "Hollywood" Hogan for years prior to this match, it was pretty amazing to witness. During the match, Hogan went from heel to face, and it was an absolute gem of a match and moment I know I'll never forget.

I loved wrestling as a kid. My mom told me what wrestling was right away. My son discovered wrestling when he was in grade school and I had to give him the "it's not real" talk. At the end of the day wrestling is just a TV show. It's a mix of live stunts, comedy and drama.

I was in the arena and never heard a crowd like that before in any event. At times, you could only hear the people close to you if that makes sense. There was this constant echo of cheers in the crowd. You could hear the echo bounce around the arena.

I've only been to 1 single Wrestling Event Live in person and it was back in the late 80s at Nassau Coliseum on Long Island and the Main Event was Hulk Hogan vs Bad News Brown. Omg every single person in the place was on their feet yelling and cheering as loud as they possibly could for Hulk Hogan as soon as the Real American theme music came on and he came out through those curtains the place went legit nuts. It was a moment in time I will not forget for the rest of my life. Louder than a Monster Truck Jam. Thousands of people screaming their heads off at the same time. The smile on my face went from ear to ear. Hulk Hogan was considered a real life Super Hero. 💪😎👍

Hulk Hogan will always be my goat for pro wrestling, no one can ever top what he did and how much he was able to make us kids in the 80's LOVE him. Thats why when he went "bad" it didnt matter, he was our guy.
@94fleetwood498 ай бұрын
Hogan was already a huge star and was returning "home" from WCW. So his arrival and some people excited to see him & others younger fans just seeing a legend was a special arrival as they toured cities. Hogan being a heel backfired. Regardless the heat that he was supposed to get was not important as he didn't need it either way. Everyone knew Rock vs Hogan was going to be one of the greatest matches of all time. And it was!!!

It was pretty wild getting to experience that match (Rock vs Hogan WM18) as a kid. I couldn’t believe with how popular The Rock was at that point in time, that the crowd was actually booing him while cheering for the heel, Hogan. It really hammered home to me just how much love the fans had for the ol’ Hulkster and what he meant to them.

They gave him the choice to win and Vince came up to him at the last second before he went out and said "Are you sure" and Hogan said "let's put him over." Hulk talked about this in 2006, and said that Rock had a movie coming out and that this will skyrocket his career. Fast forward 17 years and he's one of the biggest action movie stars out there.

The music was fucking 🔥 too during this time. Not to mention the N64 and PS1. That summer was a Golden Era in and of itself.

That match had the pefecf mix of fans. 1. Canadians LOVE wrestling 2. Most of the adults there grew up in the sweet spot of WWE (mid Golden Era - full attitude Era!) ..... There's other moments that benefited from that sweet spot. 1. Takers Streak 2. Michaels vs Angle WM 21 match 3. Taker vs Michaels WM 25 4. WM 20 was probably most of our swan songs if we didn't leave at 17, 18, or 19. There's definitely more moments

But for some reason I got hooked into it during the attitude Era with Stone Cold, DeGen, mankind, The Rock after he split with The Nation etc and I absolutley fell in love with it man. Edit: some of the most entertaining television I've ever watched in my life. I'll never forget my dad taking me to my first Monday Night Raw in Cleveland Ohio. Stone Cold was supposed to fight Kane. Had my sign all made up for when Kane got whooped and then that BA**ARD Shawn Micheals came out and gave Austin that sweet chin music before he even got to the ring lol.
