20 Weirdest Non-WWE Product Endorsements

13. Crazy Taxi City Rush With Hulk Hogan

Hulkamania Takeover When it comes to video games, the market for wrestling endorsements usually runs pretty thin: You're either affiliated with a wrestling game, or you're not. That's why people were surprised by the appearance of Hulk Hogan in a series of trailers for a Crazy Taxi game, of all things, in a move that made many a gamer and wrestling fan say "why?" earlier this year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2Ij3t618jc The promotion was short-lived, lasting all of a month as Hogan lent his likeness to an in-game appearance and other aesthetic nods. Still, the more you think about it, the more his trademark red and yellow seems like a really good fit for the Crazy Taxi Cab Company, so maybe this pairing isn't so weird after all?
