10 Times Hulk Hogan Was The Worst Babyface Ever
10. The Sorest Of Sore Losers - Survivor Series 1987
"Baloney! Hogan was eliminated, he was counted out on the floor. I think what he did was despicable. Despicable as a champion, despicable to all those Hulkamaniacs out there. He should have taken the defeat like a man. Instead, he comes out with the belt, uses it like a weapon and crowns Andre with it."
That right there, from the mouth of Jesse 'The Body' Ventura, perfectly sums up the antics of Hulk Hogan at the first ever Survivor Series PPV.
In the five-on-five main event of that show, Hogan - who at that point was the WWF Champion - was the sixth person eliminated, and that was all down to The Hulkster getting himself counted out as he battled King Kong Bundy on the outside of the ring.
After Bam Bam Bigelow put away Bundy and One Man Gang, Andre the Giant would layout Bam Bam and be left standing as the sole survivor and victor. In the sense of the Survivor Series concept, Hogan's elimination was a clean and fair one, with no shenanigans or illegal actions at play.
By the time Andre had won the match, Hogan was already in the back. Still, that didn't stop him from running down to ringside and forcing the Giant to retreat up the ramp. And it was during that post-match behaviour that Ventura spouted the above quote - with The Body sounding genuinely bewildered by what he was seeing from the company's top babyface.
