Gotta say it: I think Kofi's chest explanation is a work. Most people with that condition are born with it & it can be fixed surgically if it's really bad. It just wasn't as noticeable before because, as he said, he had a bit more muscle mass to "hide" it.

Hogan, according to Bruce Prichard on his podcast years ago, was actually thinking of changing his finisher to the Double Axe-Handle Smash that was used in the movie 'No Holds Barred', but the WWF fans rejected it. By possibly changing to that and not going back to the beloved Leg Drop finish, it may have saved his back.
