Hulk Hogan was probably the biggest wrestling icon of the 80’s and late 90’s. No one has the influence of the Hulkster in all wrestling. Hogan was the frontrunner for Vince McMahon’s firm. In addition, he also attended his first-ever WrestleMania main his event at Madison Square Garden in 1985. One of Hogan’s most memorable moments in wrestling involved was when Hogan turned to WCW and he joined the NWO. Over the years, the six-time world champion has also been shrouded in controversy.
A few years ago, WWE erased Hulk Hogan’s legacy after racist remarks resurfaced on an internet tape in 2015. However, Hogan was later inducted into the Hall of Fame. Apart from that, Hogan has made news many times due to his reputation being damaged. Fans are shooting daggers at Hulk Hogan in Hollywood due to his recent possible cult connections.

Hulk Hogan made headlines again for all the wrong reasons after news spread about his possible ties to the Church of Scientology. A group of interconnected business entities and other organizations dedicated to the practice, administration and dissemination of Scientology.
