10 Times That Hulk Hogan Has Come Back From The Brink
9. Schooled By Jay Leno
Ever heard about the time the talk show host outmanoeuvred arguably the biggest name in professional wrestling history? If you haven’t, consider yourself lucky.
The show was WCW Road Wild 1998, with Jay Leno teaming with Diamond Dallas Page against Hollywood Hogan and Eric Bischoff. And yes, it was that Jay Leno.
After managing to dodge some early Hogan offense, Leno would actually take Hogan to school with several arm bars during the match. It was a sad, sad sight for any wrestling fan, but there was some light relief as the legendary Bobby Heenan barked “Look at Leno! Bring on Goldberg!” as the Iron Chin took it to Hulk.
For many superstars, being shown up in a wrestling match by someone like Leno would’ve done major damage to their career. Not for Hulk Hogan, though. Sure, he'd struggle to sell for Randy Savage and Bret Hart throughout his career, but Hulk was perfectly fine with Leno turning the screws.
