Anabolic steroids. They do the body good.

Wow. He was inducted into the WWE HOF over the weekend. It was his first time back in a really long time. Sad.
 
Did anyone hear/read his speech on Monday night? Very creepy as it kind of foreshadowed his death.

Ya I watched it. It's almost like it gave him his peace with the fans and WWE and he could go in peace now

He was always my favorite growing up but I never got to see him wrestle very often because I was too young during his heyday. I did get to see him at a house show where he fought and beat the undertaker in a bodybag match. I'm so glad he got in the hall prior to his death.

I completely understand that it's a new era but it kills me that an icon like him was only a 1-time HW champ whereas guys like Cena (11), Orton (8), HHH (8), Edge (4), etc.. are multiple time champs.

He was a poor in ring technician and a jerk out of it. He had a character that resonated with fans. He had a personality that alienated him with the brass.

Couldn't agree more. When he got to the peak of his career, he thought he was bigger than Hogan and wanted the same money Hogan got. When it became clear to him that Vince wasn't going to pay him top dollar, he started missing appearances. That lead to him getting fired from WWF. Then once WCW brought him in, he did the same thing. He really buried his own career.

But to add to the argument about not getting more title matches, Hogan was also a bad wrestler. One of the worst to ever get that popular. But he had charisma that was unmatched.
 
Sae the news...so sad. ..loved watching that dude
 
Just remember seeing he was inducted to the HOF just recently. Sad news.
 
Sad to hear of his passing.
 
LOL Old "4 moves" Cena is an 11 time champ, so I'm going to disagree with the wrestling being the reason and agree it was the out of ring attitude.

Cena is much better in the ring than Warrior or Hogan. And I can't stand watching Cena. But the fact that he's 11 time champ tells more about the lack of superstars after the attitude era more than anything
