20 Rare Images Of Hulk Hogan You Need To See

Hulk Hogan might be the most famous professional wrestler ever. He's a guy that is more than just a wrestler, he's a brand. Even though Hogan is 61 years old and his wrestling days are behind him, he's still one of the most recognizable public figures in the world. He won his first WWE World Heavyweight Championship in 1984 when he beat The Iron Sheik. His first reign lasted over four years and he didn't lose it in a fair match. He went on to win the WWE Title a total of six times with the last one taking place in 2002 on his WWE comeback tour when he was 48 years old. Hogan also held the WCW World Title six times. He was the biggest difference maker for WCW and really put them on the map as a major wrestling company. Hogan has seen and done a lot in his career, so there are plenty of interesting photos out there that capture his experiences. For a guy that was balding by his early 30s and had a ridiculous mustache, he was very photogenic as well. That's probably why Vince McMahon chose him as the face of WWE because there are few people that look like Hogan, so people are always going to remember him and usually have positive thoughts about him as well. Here's a look at 20 rare photos of the Hulkster from his in-ring career and out of the ring as well.

Hogan's greatest rival was arguably Andre the Giant, but they were great friends too. Here are the two giants somewhere in Japan.
