Long before the advent of Hulkamania, Terry Bollea wrestled in a variety of territories under a variety of names. Prior to joining the WWF in late 1979 as a heel under the name that would make him famous, he worked for a few months in Georgia Championship Wrestling as a heel by the glorious name of Sterling Golden.

And he was one of the hairiest men you’ve ever seen. Forget the twenty years on top of the business, the wear and tear on his body, the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune over the years… Hulk Hogan has been ridding himself of enough hair to start his own wig business since the seventies.

Even better, he used to strategically shave his remaining chest hair into shapes - a mushroom cloud, or a heart. That’s some next level obnoxious manscaping, right there. Heel Hogan was the best.
