10 Wrestlers Who HATED Hulk Hogan
5. The Honky Tonk Man
Despite befriending a young Hulk Hogan when he first got started in the industry, The Honky Tonk Man has had numerous issues with him over the years and even once described him as "an old crippled dogsh*t of a man who could only be found with his feet in Lard Ass Bubba’s ass."
The problems allegedly stem from a perceived lack of loyalty to both his fellow professionals and the WWE. Hogan also apparently did little to aid his former friend during his run-ins with Eric Bischoff during his time in WCW, a company HTM joined to help The Hulkster.
Furthermore, the kinship soured ever more during Hogan's time in TNA when he invited the former Intercontinental Champion to join the 'Hogan & Friends Tour' before abruptly firing him due to an altercation with Bubba the Love Sponge. The Honky Tonk Man responded by posting a blistering rant online in which he concluded, "Hulkamania killed itself."
Thankfully, this story does have a happy ending with the two resolving their differences, now hanging out at wrestling events, and HTM even crediting Hogan with teaching him to play the guitar.
