10 WWE Wrestlers Who Didn't Do What Was Best For Business
10. Hulk Hogan Won’t Pass The Torch To Bret Hart
Hulk Hogan shockingly regained the WWE Championship at WrestleMania IX after an impromptu match with Yokozuna. There were then plans for Hulk Hogan vs Bret Hart at SummerSlam 1993. The idea was for Hogan to pass the torch to Hart signifying the end of one era and the beginning of a new one. Unfortunately, Hogan wouldn’t do business.
According to Hart, he was told by Vince McMahon that Hogan refused to drop the belt to him because they weren’t in the same league. This left Hart out of the title picture, and Hogan disgruntled. The Hulkster referred to the IWGP title as the real world championship during a New Japan Pro Wrestling post-match interview.
Hogan agreed to drop the belt back to Yokozuna at King of the Ring 1993 while Hart won the KOTR tournament. At SummerSlam, Hogan did not appear, and Hart wrestled both Doink the Clown and Jerry “the King” Lawler.
