14 Wrestlers With Winning Records Over Hulk Hogan

4. Goldberg

Goldberg is 3-1 over Hogan overall, and of course defeated him in their only singles meeting: an electrifying if profligate July 6, 1998 match given away for free on WCW Monday Nitro as the Nielsen-pilled Eric Bischoff began to lose his head entirely in a desperate bid to win the battle for perception against Vince McMahon.

Reductive history would indicate that Hogan was a complete narcissist who'd sooner kill WCW with his creative control clause than weaken his public image, and while there's a considerable truth to it, he didn't campaign to get his win back.

Not out of altruism, you understand - he knew he couldn't take the piss - but he wasn't quite as naked a wrecking ball he was in that rather vile attempt to go viral on the bizz-ack of Miley Cyrus.
