8 Times Hulk Hogan Lost Clean

Hulkamania wasn't running wild, it was staring at the lights after these matches!

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2jc277_8-times-hulk-hogan-lost-clean_sport Generally speaking, Vince McMahon has never really enjoyed the thought of seeing his top babyface lose cleanly. Such a mindset has extended to the likes of Steve Austin and John Cena, who were both protected in similar fashion to the great white hope of the 1980's and early-90's, Hulk Hogan. The Hulkster was a phenomenal success for the then-WWF, who put their full weight behind the idea of 'Hulkamania', pushing the red and yellow-wearing grappler to the moon. Similarly, when Hogan would wrestle in WCW, he was treated like a God, only coming up on the losing end when there was no other option. Doing the job wasn't something Hogan was prone to do, but there have been times when one of the biggest names in the history of the pro wrestling industry decreed he would lose. Shockingly, there have even been times when Hulk agreed that he'd lose without any bells and whistles. No distractions, no referee bumps and no shortcuts, just a straight up loss. Of course, these 'clean' losses are few and far between, but this list explores 10 of the biggest examples of Hulk Hogan losing cleanly, as well as some which come mighty close. Some are unforgettable, but others will shock even the most die hard of fans!
